Sometimes I find sparkly oddities while on a tiara hunt. Sometimes I just find oddities.

And it is very dumb.

Is it actually bad that it is like this?

Site release b067781: Fail CI when the mirrors page and mirrors.json disagree (#163). Every build ships a signed manifest; see /mirrors/ for verification.

This post completes my prediction of the 2026 Chargers roster after viewing the final preseason game last night. I have intentionally not read Daniel Popper's final prediction in The Athletic, as I am trying to limit other influences. That said: I have listened to recent Gu...

Site release b819c90: Point the mirrors page card at the Netlify mirror's own hostname (#162). Every build ships a signed manifest; see /mirrors/ for verification.

I wrote a thing about the new Twitter.now project yesterday. I said I was "cautiously optimistic" but I'm erring more on the side of cautious now. I think the two guys who started this thing might be in over their heads. There was a massive spambot attack going on all aftern...

I am juggling two Frontiers now, one the last release of the OPML editor from 2014, and the other the in-development version codenamed Atlantis that runs in Electron and thus is built on JavaScript and Chrome. Took me a while to get over the confusion, because Frontier is act...

It's our job to make the web a more attractive environment than AT Proto. We can deliver all the benefits they tout, without the huge transition involved in converting to their world. It would be like porting from Mac to Windows in the 90s, something we did at UserLand, and n...

Manton wants to know why Marc Benioff chose the name Claudeforce for his brand-merge of Salesforce and Claude. My two cents. Claude is a great name. I think that’s ultimately what he bought. His customers just want to be able to check the box – we’re using AI. Boss is happy. When I was coming up as a young dude in tech, the old saying was “No one ever got fired for buying IBM.” Today, in 2026, it’s Claude in place of IBM. My father worked in marketing at IBM in Armonk, so I heard a lot about their strategies that meant the IBM brand would be kicking ass forever. All things must pass. But in the early days of the PC industry, IBM sure had the power. Kind of like the US going to war with Iran in 2026. In the end IBM wanted to get rid of Microsoft, but Billg had the last laugh.

You may have heard about Dave Winer's rss.chat, a social network designed to find out whether RSS 2.0 "can be used as the backbone of a real social network". This is what it looks like when you visit https://rss.chat: The whole thing confused me initially, and if you have h...

A simple wheat bread with sourdough pre-dough.

The follow up session to my CPAD assessment for ME was effectively a carbon copy of the previous session, just without the introductory interview and history data collection. Structure of the assessment The session had four parts, in this order: Check on how I was feel...

Dreaming about a Chromium/Firefox extension that auto open any article on the web in reading mode.

Wanting to see the original site would be a manual action.

No ads, no pop-ups, no cookies walls, just plain text,titles and basic images.

Reading on mobile without reading mode On for most news sites is such a pain in the A’s, it’s horrible what they have done with the Web.

Thank God the blog ecosystem is clean, fast and un tarnished by these shenanigans.

What bothers me even more is Google actively pushing scammy, dirty sites on its News pan on every Android devices shipped, Google is curating “News” sites filled with Ads, Scams and deep redirect that actively drive the user to even more scammy site is literally automated enshitification.

It’s horrible to browse the web on mobile in 2026, we gotta to do something!

Going to try this on my DGX Spark GB10
