אני תמיד מתרשם מכמה מעט צריך כדי שמגרש שכונתי יתעורר: שני שערים, תאורה סבירה וקצת צל ליד הקווים. לא כל ילד יגיע לאקדמיה ולא כל משחק צריך להפוך לתחרות. לפעמים החשיבות היא פשוט שיש מקום בטוח להיפגש בו אחרי הלימודים, בלי לתאם הסעה ובלי לשלם.

I finally watched Sinners and the music is still stuck in my head! The story gets a little wild, but the atmosphere, performances, and that feeling of history sitting just under the surface really worked for me.

I share some photos of impressive haboobs and talk a bit about Arizona's yearly monsoon season.

A reflection on electric scooters.

- What a week, huh? - Captain, it’s only Wednesday. This was me on Tuesday evening. Someone hit my car while it was parked and ran away. Since Tuesday, this has been the biggest thing occupying my mind. The problem is not that the car is damaged and I need to take it to th...

I want to connect RSS to AT Proto, both ways, inbound and out. Toward that end, today I helped Leaflet, a very nice editor for AT Proto, make their outbound RSS feed better. We should have all our best editors, everywhere, hooked up over popular web standards. And I want my posts to show up not onlsy in Bluesky but also in standard.site. I was able to do that with micro.blog which is the swiss army knife of interop in the web of the 2020's. Getting independent developers working with each other is my mission, because first you have to have interop between the people before you can get interop between the apps.

Here's the sign of success. I wrote a post on demo.rss.chat was automatically cross-posted to Bluesky via micro.blog. Because the post has a title, it was routed to standard.site. What does that mean? I still don't really understand, when I do I will explain it here. But part of the answer is that we now have a data structure in atmosphere that looks like an RSS item with different names for things. Are there feed readers in AT-Proto-Land? If so, can we ping one of them to say hey there's a new post in the standard.site world, so please show it to subscribers? And I keep wondering, why not just make all of Bluesky capable of handling the features standard.site calls for. Twenty years is too long to have such a limited view of what text is. See textcasting for more dogma.

This week I completed developing the expense report app. This is the software that I am working on for getting all my tax stuff together – receipts, mileage and what not. This is made using Deepseek V4 Flash and the total cost of the project

When you hear sports pundits discuss NFL quarterbacks, inevitably they will assess whether that player is a "Franchise Quarterback". If a team has a Franchise Quarterback, then the team is set at QB and ready to challenge for a Super Bowl (assuming other pieces are reasonabl...

A guest post I wrote for The Sprout, the Calgary Vegan Society's blog, about navigating social eating situations as a vegan. From private vs. social eating to practical strategies for restaurants, family dinners, and travel, this guide covers how to maintain your values while staying connected to community.

A mesmerizing collection of traditional and modern song from the great qawwali master.

Responsibility for AI systems means little without informed agency, and the AI industry's pattern of opacity around training data, environmental costs, and system prompts is a structural failure to sustain it.

Wishing there was a fully supported ATgeo lexicon that most bluesky app views could understand…it would allow us to build location aware posts from location data (think disasters, quakes, flood etc)

Sometimes I’m wondering, what would be the cost of stopping supporting the Mastodon API layer and instead work towards proper implementation of client to servers opening the route for a universal mobile app for #fedify based AP implementation.

For indiekit I used Fedify to bring this very blog into the fediverse but then I wanted to be able to use Phanpy and other mobile app so I built a compatibility api layer that these mobile apps expect to find allowing me to use my own site with any Mastodon mobile app. It works but it’s buggy and I’m subject to API layers change and other future breakage I don’t want to deal with in the long run.

So now I’m wondering, do I drop this API layer and build a universal client?
