a little part of me dies inside everytime i see someone putting these on their face.

I wrote a pretty good set of paragraphs on Twitter/X this morning. Yesterday I announced rss.chat. Some people spell it RSS.chat. I haven't decided which way is right yet. The announcement covers a slice of the project, but it fans out to be the beginning of a bootstrap. I ...

Claude teaches you how to manage. You've got a perfectly pliable team member, always does their best to do what you told them to do. Now how do you design co-development projects where two very different individuals do their work and it adds up to at least twice what either of them could do alone.

The instance I started is for my friends, people I work with, it's not something people can test. It will be possible to start your own server, quite soon. And then you can do whatever you want. It's MIT licensed. Kick ass and have fun, but remember don't fuck with the interop. It's there so users have choice.

Conor McGregor returns to headline UFC 329 tonight after being found liable for rape in civil court, a comeback made possible by the UFC's right-wing politicization and the broader 'Epstein class' culture of impunity for powerful men. On the normalization of sexual violence, Dana White's friendship with Trump, and how public awareness fails to disrupt the status quo.

Yesterday was a wonderful first day for rss.chat. It's now out there, but we haven't talked about or demo'd many of the things that it does. I wanted to get the feeds out there first, because now we get to think together about how they fit together to give us a social network experience. It's not locked in a silo, these are just like feeds you have known about for over two decades. But it is a new application for those feeds. And this is a bootstrap. You start with something small that you're sure is a beginning for what you want to do. And then you and others use it for a while. And it is open source, MIT licensed, but compatibility will make the difference.

Jeremy Herve who I know from projects at Automattic, has questions about rss.chat, and I have some answers, with more coming soon.

Back in 2020 I gave a pretty definitive statement of my position on physical books. When brian d foy interviewed me for perl.com, I said, among other things: “I do like a real book. But they take up too much space, so I’ve pretty much completely stopped buying them over the last five years.” That […]
