Friday, May 1, 2026 Welcome to May, the fairest month of all in the NYC area. Almost every day in May is delicious. And today is esp fair, the Knicks moved on to the next round of the playoffs with a record-setting decisive victory over the Hawks of Atlanta. The next opponent is either the Celtics of Boston or the Sixers of Philadelphia. I was already burned out on the playoffs last week, but I'm rejuvenated. Let's go. And I apologize about all the "realistic" things I said about Brunson. He caught fire in the last three games, and showed he has the determination we need to go all the way this year. The Knicks are great because unlike the Yankees or Mets, they unify the city. And as everyone learns, NYC is so huge that the fanbase can pack arenae all over the US, as they chanted the name of OG and MVP for Brunson and Dooooooce when McBride shoots. If they don't get to the finals it will not be for lack of talent or determination. There wil...

Thursday, April 30, 2026 This Knicks fan is happy! ❤️ # Walt Frazier interview after the game. # The WordPress OS # The product described on wordpress.com/social is not a real product, I am told by someone inside who I have worked with and trust. They say there will be a lot of these trial products coming out in the coming weeks because this is a project that Matt has given to all developers in the company? Not sure the shape of it, I had heard about this project third-hand but not seen any specifics. I sent my friend an email, which I am not editing, this is exactly as it read, the only change is that I redacted their name. Don't want to get anyone in trouble. ;-) # okay i understand it wasn't a real announcement or product, i couldn't tell -- it looked like one. # suggest you make a bit less of a big deal about the others that are coming out. or put a disclaimer on it. # the marketing was fi...

Wednesday, April 29, 2026 What's the opposite of locked-in? Locked-open. Mwhahaa. (Let me shed a little light on that, podcasting was locked open, blogging was not.) # Today's song: Something in the Air . It's the one hit song Thunderclap Newman, it's indelible, its beauty is always there. I can't not listen and sing along when it comes on. And then YouTube followed it with Peace in our Time , another indelible creation. # When you're working with Claude the temptation is to be concerned about how he feels when you just asked him to reinvent all the nomenclature it came up with for something that has now evolved to be something else. I feel bad because I think I made him feel bad, because at a subconsious level I think of Claude as a collaborator who I appreciate and want to make sure knows that. But then I remember I have to periodically kill Claude and launch a new one because they run out of memory after a while. I can i...

Tuesday, April 28, 2026 New version of XML-RPC package for JavaScript. It now handles POST messages that don't have a body. # You kind of get a sense when the platform vendor is going to compete with you instead of work with you. That's how big companies usually work with independent devs. There is a bigger picture, developers who might build on WordPress as opposed to inside. Now probably no one is going to try, maybe not even me. Or maybe we will. :-) # Claude unlearns things that we had settled a long time ago. It fumbles around with a process, making it worse with every iteration, the same fumbling it did five days ago when it initially learned how to do what it can't do now. Usually when I regress in software, I am responsible for it, i did something to break it, but here's a tool that's capable of derailing us with me doing nothing new. In that way it behaves more like an imperfect human than a GIGO machine. # ...

Monday, April 27, 2026 Busy day working on new RSS-based project. Still diggin! # What makes the web? # I’ve been trying to come up with a simple test that lets you know whether some software is on the web or if it just can be made to appear in a web browser. So here we go. # If you can hook up a piece of the app to the a piece of another app then it’s on the web. # This comes from the basic feature of linking, which is the unique feature of the web. # Every other feature that makes the web the web in my experience allows two things to be part of each other. # Comment here . # Linkblog items for the day Billionaires Are Dominating California Politics. nytimes.com Jamie Ding’s ‘Jeopardy!’ Streak Comes to an End. nytimes.com I’ve been trying to come up with a simple test that lets you know whether some software is on the web or if it just can be made to appear in the we...

Sunday, April 26, 2026 I just said this to Claude: "I want to show people that RSS isn't just for news and podcasting. It can be for mindless social media rants too." ;-) # Bluesky is having trouble keeping their network running. As a developer I empathize. As a user, it's beginning to be a problem. I am using it the way I used to use Twitter, taking notes for future blog posts, sharing a few linkblog feeds, DMing with people I work with, and want/need to keep going. I know about its lock-in problems, but at this time there's no open alternative that has the same collection of users who are easy enough to find. So if it stays unreliable I have to think about what to do about that. Every time I get a 403 Forbidden , I stop and think if this is the time to write a post? This was the time. # Imagine you were putting up a skyscraper in Manhattan. I lived in an area of the city, called Billionaire's Row, for nine years where ...

Saturday, April 25, 2026 Knicks won in a blowout . As disturbing as Thursday's game was, today we are feeling no pain. Go Knicks! ;-) # I wrote about Jeopardy, Firefox, Matt, Silicon Valley and the writer's web in a long comment on Doc's blog. Here's a quote. "What we really need is interop. If the source is free that’s great. But right now we have silos everywhere and I want WordPress, perhaps along with Firefox to help us boot up the writer's web." # Linkblog items for the day Trump may be temporary.
