A bit of history. Read this post from 20 years ago by Phil Jones. That's what I was trying to do back then, just as Twitter came online.

Trying to be better about cleaning up unused Git branches in a new project, before they get out of control. Micro.blog has hundreds of stale branches because I haven’t taken the time to sort out if there are a few I might want to keep, just in case.

The launch of “Xoli” adds to the technological efforts promoted by the federal government to turn the 2026 World Cup into an engine of development for the entire country.

If you’ve spent any time on social media recently, you’ve probably come across a video of a young, square-jawed influencer calling himself Clavicular. He has become the face of an internet subculture called looksmaxxing, in which men do almost anything — like taking steroids...

Saturday, March 21, 2026 Andy Baio noted that it was 20 years ago today that Jack Dorsey posted his first tweet. He also noted it was the day that Ze Frank did his first YouTube video. It got me looking around my own world to see what happened on Mar 21, 2006. Nothing eart...
