Love: I ask Claude for a list of names and values, it responds quickly with exactly what I asked for. Nothing more. Unconsciously I say "perfect" -- out loud.

I have a Mac laptop that I keep updated with the latest versions of Mac OS. I got a warning today saying that Electric Drummer won't run on the next release of the OS. Now I don't use it very much if at all on that machine, but I wonder. ED is an Electron app, otherwise it's wholly JavaScript. It does include some Node packages of course, but not that many IIRC. This was a thing I wasn't expecting.

trying out the new cafe in town this morning. it is right by the park, they're playing (i think?) huey lewis and the news, and the vibe is like a bed & breakfast lounge. not a bad place to cut a new pippi release.

Stories about new flags, talking birds, rain and time and many, many cats.

As good as their word, the new council ripped out the bike lane, leaving a yawning crevasse down each side of the road, a wound in the skin of the world that none could see the bottom of. A child or two fell in; they should not have been playing

I just tried the latest version of the X editor. It's got all the features of textcasting. I wrote a test post entitled "X has nuked the limits, time for Bluesky to follow suit." I think you can tell I had fun writing it. They don't think anyone hears me, but I think they're wrong about that. The idea that they are part of the web is ludicrous. They're going to get called on it eventually. They should fix things so they are part of the web. Then we can all create. Or if you're not going to be part of the web, for crying out loud stop saying that you do.

One of the benefits of using Claude for all my coding is I'm now finding out what various things I do as standard practice are called in the outside world. Today I learned what agile is. I of course have heard it used, and even got to know the guy who coined the term.

I archived Prior art as a design method from 2003 on this.how.

My recommendation for Automattic and Bluesky.

• Bluesky supports RSS 2.0 inbound and outbound.
• Bluesky eliminates its character limit, allows bold, italic styles. Links. Optional titles. Users can edit their posts. More here.

Automattic already fully supports RSS 2.0 in both directions, in all their products.

This gives us the most interop with the most respect for prior art. No need to reinvent. There's nothing special about Bluesky, they can use what we've all been using for 20+ years.

It's really very simple, let's hook everything together and let the users and developers create.

There probably is a name for this development practice. Only works on a team with more two developers. At some point in a project after you've been working on Level N in the stack, you may decide you've done all you can there, and it's time for someone else to work at that le...

And it’s amazing

Something rattled in the vase when I picked it up, but the light wasn't good enough to see it down the neck. I had to buy it. Seven pounds! The man on the stall – the boy – was twitching at the cheeks trying not to laugh. When the deal

The Veronica Mars TV show, about a teenage private eye in a SoCal town, ran from 2004-2007, and was the first major role for Kristen Bell. A feature film (that really felt like a double-episode of the show) was released in 2014, and there was a final season in 2019. Between...
