I updated sally.scripting.com to support https, and updated it with posts from scripting.com in 2023-2026. I was using it as an example of prior art of user interface for Claude. I figured restoring this app on my own would be penance for believing that Claude was anywhere near as smart as I am. Not even close. Not today at least. Grrr.

It’s The NHL Playoff Preview … NOT!
"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything," said no blogger ever. But we're not made entirely out of mud and coal. With the 16 NHL playoff teams officially set, if not yet the exact matchups, I'd like to offer in the meantime a kind of anti–playoff preview, where we cover every team whose season is over. I'll say one nice thing and one mean thing about each. We'll start at the middle of the standings and descend from there.
Washington Capitals
A Nice Thing: In what might be his final NHL season, 40-year-old Alex Ovechkin leads the team yet again with 32 goals. Even if he's just running up the score on Gretzky now, everyone who saw Ovi notch 900 and beyond in person this year is thankful for the memory.

Chappell Roan And Jorginho Are No Longer Beefing
Everyone gather 'round for a beef update. The beef update is this: Chappell Roan and Jorginho are no longer having one.
According to Jorginho, that is. The Flamengo midfielder, who started this whole beef cycle several weeks ago with an Instagram post, has now declared it finished with yet another Instagram post. After accusing one of Roan's security guards of being rude and mean to his 11-year-old daughter at a hotel in São Paulo, the soccer star is now ready to chalk the whole thing up as a misunderstanding.
"I made my initial statement in the heat of the moment, after hearing that my child and wife had been approached by an adult male security guard in an intimidating way," said Jorginho in his statement. "Since then, I have become aware of new information that has changed my understanding of parts of what happened."
