BBEdit 16

barebones.com/products/bbedit/bbedit16.html

Speaking of BBEdit, version 16 dropped just before WWDC, and adds a slew of nifty improvements, headlined by vastly expanded support for Shortcuts. You can also search for text in images, use the W3C HTML syntax checker, and of all things, use vi keyboard emulation. There’s a lot more, of course — and as always the changes, improvements, and additions are copiously documented in the release notes.

New licenses are $60, upgrades from v15 cost $30, and upgrades from older versions are $40. In the Mac App Store it’s a $5/month or $50/year subscription.

James Dolan Sues Wired Magazine For Writing A Story About His Shitty Ways

James Dolan Sues Wired Magazine For Writing A Story About His Shitty Ways

James Dolan keeps pooping on his own parade

The Knicks owner should still be basking in the warmth of his beloved NBA team’s first championship in 53 years, like the rest of New York. Instead, he’s suing journalists.

Dolan’s corporation, MSG Entertainment, filed a defamation lawsuit Thursday in New York Supreme Court against Wired magazine, for a story published last week titled "Madison Square Garden Kept a List of Gay Celebrities." The piece went into detail about the owner's fetish for keeping tabs on many of the Garden's famous visitors.

Manton Reece Supports Webmention Valid

Love that Joanna Stern is still making these kind of videos now that she’s indie. Wearing cameras to train future robots feels demeaning and maybe not even useful.

Democrats Rake in Cash in Battleground Races

Punchbowl News: “House Democrats are rolling in cash with just 109 days until the midterms.” “A new trove of campaign-finance reports released this week showed a concerning reality for the GOP: Democratic candidates raked in gargantuan amounts of money last quarter in key battleground districts.” “In fact, at least 25 GOP incumbents — and Rep.

Shapiro: I was Pennsylvania AG in 2020 when Trump's enablers took me to court 43 times to try and throw out votes. Every single time they went to court, they lost. They went 0-43, and I went 43-0, because they could never produce the evidence to back up the president's BS.
