Monday, June 29, 2026 Claude Code is a Dave-amplifier. # BTW, I was just contacted by a developer who's implementing all the protocols I mentioned yesterday . And I should mention that Manton Reece , developer of micro.blog and a longtime friend, going back to the Frontier days on the Mac, has inbound and outbound RSS and he covers every freaking API out there, he's a monster. And I said yesterday he doesn't get enough credit for what he's contributed. We're aiming for interop instead of chasing the silos. And it's fine to chase silos if you're into it, I was done with that in 2017 . We're going to make it work the way it would work if we weren't trying to lock anyone in, quite the opposite, I want people to use Manton's product. I'm not being commercial here. I'm trying to get the web back on the path it should have been on all along. If I make some money that's cool, if not that's okay too. BTW, th...

Sunday, June 28, 2026 To read scripting.com you need a browser that supports HTTP . # Why email newsletters made sense. Email has no character limits, can represent bold and italic, links, titles, enclosures, basically most features of the web , and social media places limits on what writers can write. That's where the literate social web went, and the bloggers too. Like how birds are really dinosaurs. # If you're working on a social web app that supports inbound and outbound RSS , I'd like to help, so our products can interop beautifully. That's the reason I'm doing this work, to establish a baseline for interop in the social web. RSS is the obvious candidate. If we didn't have it, we'd have to invent it. I'd much prefer doing the work openly, so if you can, write a post and send me a link. I think it's time for us to go back to the way we built network systems before Google and the VCs took over. Put up an app...

Saturday, June 27, 2026 Claude can understand code no human could. Ever, under any circumstances. Just like a compiler can understand any code we throw at it. Way beyond what code obfuscation tools can do. # In our work we have arrived at the point where we read and study a piece I published in 1997, but was written in 1988 or so. Esp the part about LBBS . It's a really good thing I wrote that because I forgot how it worked, but reading that it all comes back. We're going to go far beyond where Twitter went with reading message structures on the web. I had already done a lot of the work in the 80s. # The other day Matt joked about how old I am, in public, and I am pretty old. But Matt, I was paying attention then as I am now, and connecting the dots. No one else working today, I'd venture, knows what it's like to create and run a modem-based dial-up Twitter-like system on an Apple II with a 10MB Corvus hard drive. Yet it worked,...

Friday, June 26, 2026 Podcast: My (latest) AI Aha Moment . # When Claude has all the information available it can figure out stuff a human mind would never be able hold in our minds at the same time, but it often doesn't remember to get the information first. When you get to the level I'm at with this, it's hallucinating all the freaking time because it didn't load the part of the data set that had the answer. It was right there, it was supposed to know, it just forgot to look. My job is to recognize when it has done that and tell it to go read handoff.md again. I mentioned this on Twitter, and got all kinds of help, but the terminology isn't well known to me. Still diggin, as they say. # I'm loving Star City . New episode last night, wow. # With all the Democratic Socialists winning over standard Democratic party incumbents, there's a fair amount of angst on the cable news. If they're scared, they should...

Thursday, June 25, 2026 Om Malik died . A longtime friend, most generous kind person in Silicon Valley. It's that time of life. Much love to you brother. # Claude is a brain , very different from ours and when we work together we humans have access to capabilities that work really well with building large software products. And that's a huge understatement. Most remarkable thing. Most of the discussion between people who use the AI tools and those that condemn them are not productive because the opponents of AI don't understand the breadth of what these machines do and the potential to do much more, things that we as a species have never done. Think of it as an alien life form that wants to merge with us. I'm glad to be alive at this moment, and able to explore it as part of my development team. I recommend starting an academic dialog, among people who don't have conflicts of interest, or very well-disclosed and disclaimed conflicts, to ...

Wednesday, June 24, 2026 When writing code with Claude you really have to be skeptical when it says it just found the problem, but you have no idea what it's saying, chances are pretty good it's just a word salad excuse for not having read all the code necessary to have an fact-based opinion. Actually debugging software isn't about opinions, it's about proof. When you start clutching at straws until one works you just added another level of bug that will eventually bite you in the butt and you'll still have to solve the original one. Uncorrected, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to trust the code it writes, but I guess that's why people have two or more instances playing different roles? For now I'm the one that questions its sanity, politely though. ;-) # Linkblog items for the day The evolution of podcasts: How podcasting became media’s biggest disruptor. glamour.co.za Will America Ever Give W...

Tuesday, June 23, 2026 I took a screen shot of this post , gave it to Claude, asked it to write a short paragraph summary. Then I asked it to rewrite with using no more than 300 chars, the limit on Bluesky. Now I can post the summary there, but I won't, at the moment of truth I had to disclose this wasn't written by me, and it was 290 chars and there wasn't enough room for that. And here's a screen shot of the conversation with Claude. # The shape of the next world # There was a long discussion last night on Bluesky about whether twitter-like apps should show blog posts in addition to tweet-size things. Should it have a character limit, allow titles, links, bold, italic, editing, enclosures, markdown, etc? This is a permathread, it's been going since 2006. I didn't contribute, because there are no new ideas at this point, except this -- there are readers and writers and they have different needs. # As a reade...

Monday, June 22, 2026 Louis CK: Everything is amazing and nobody is happy . # People who reinvent RSS often say they did it because it was missing a feature they needed. We anticipated that, there's a section of the spec that explains how you can extend the format so there's no reason not to build on existing standard instead of starting over from scratch. This way you get more interop sooner, your product might work with other products right out of the box, and save time for other devs who want to be compatible with you. People should study the internet, how it developed, ts philosophy, before they go off and try to re-create it, it rarely works and what a waste of time and effort. What's the point? # Bluesky : "If Obama had called McConnell’s bluff on the Garland nomination, the court would be 5-4 instead of 6-3. And if RBG had stepped down, it would’ve been 5-4 in favor of Dems. # Linkblog items for the day ...
