Saturday, February 21, 2026 New podcast episode where I explain how I lost my Twitter account and how this is exactly the kind of thing that AI can do economically, esp for people who pay actual money for your service. I can't buy anything from you if I can't use my account. # Poll : Do you have a blog? Results . # Query : I have not done any vibe coding and have a question for those who have. Suppose you request a change in an app you've been working on with the AI for a while, adding features, changing things around based on learning and testing, which is generally what happens after you've been working on something new. Here's the question. What happens when you ask for a change that requires the codebase to be reorganized. How did that go? Do the AIs even know that's possible or do they just pile on special cases? # What happened to polling? I had a poll app for a while, then Twitter came out with one and I switched to that. I don...

Friday, February 20, 2026 Updated version of FeedLand Docker Compose . It's now possible to run FeedLand on a local machine on a private network. # I'd like to have an OPML subscription list with feeds with news about specific feed-based products. I started a thread on the reallysimple repo for people to post links to such feeds. Once I have enough feeds, I'll publish the URL of the subscription list. We should, in this community, of all communities, a good way to communicate about developments. Too many good ideas get lost without this. # I think the really big money in AI will be helping all the commerce sites get competitive again. Their sites are breaking, and are anemic compared to what you can do with AI. I think the WordPress community is in great position to get a huge amount of business here because many of these people are your customers. If you're a WordPress developer I'd love to hear what you think. # If you're using OP...

Thursday, February 19, 2026 President Obama going to the NBA All-Star game made the freaking All-Star game worth something. Perfect place for him to show up. # It's interesting to see the ATProto solution to a problem we solved in RSS-land a few years ago, how to include Markdown along with other source formats (HTML, OPML). # They all say podcasting's open period is over and one or another huge billionaire-owned platform is the new owner of podcasting. This time it's YouTube. How many times has this happened? Many. But not enough for journalism to respect the power of the people. So here we go again. # Paul Brainerd , the founder of Aldus, publisher of Pagemaker, died. At least that's what I'm seeing on various social networks. No mention of his passing in the News tab on Google, or on Wikipedia. Pagemaker was a milestone product, it was the first popular desktop publishing app on the Mac, the first to really make use of the graphic ...

Wednesday, February 18, 2026 New account on Twitter: DWiner43240 . The old one dating back to the dawn of time is disabled, so at least the new owners can't post anything there, if I understand correctly. # The Spurlocks of RSS-Land # I saw a product announcement from Jake Spurlock -- a new feed reader called Today . From the description sounds well-thought-out. # He explains -- "Google killed Reader in 2013. I've been chasing that feeling ever since. So I built it." # I also know someone named John Spurlock, who I worked on some OPML and RSS stuff for Bluesky in 2023. I sent a note of congrats to him, when I really should've sent it to Jake. # Screen shot of the conversation I had with ChatGPT. # And text of the email I sent congratulating the wrong Spurlock. # Congrats on the new product! # Haven't tried it yet, I don't generally use Apple's store on my Mac, not sure why. I will do it ...

Tuesday, February 17, 2026 Yesterday, I had to ship an envelope to the UK and got caught in dead ends at the Fedex and DHL sites. One of them said my zip code wasn't in the town I live in. How do you get past that?? These companies are losing business because their systems are broken. Maybe they worked at one time. I used ChatGPT as I often do to get help on one of these antiquated sites. And while ChatGPT has the technology and Fedex has the info, they just have to get together and upgrade the user experience, and eventually of course the AI version of the UI becomes the real one. # Back when I ran a software company I'd help the team understand why they should be very very nice to our customers. "Those people have our money in their pockets." It generally got a laugh partially because I was their boss, but I like to think also because it's the truth. # BTW, people make the same mistake with AI that we make with every new tech. We focus ...

Monday, February 16, 2026 My Twitter account has been hijacked. I can't log on, or change the password. I can't communicate with the company, so I'll try here. Please shut down my account, davewiner . To my friends who have Twitter accounts, if you see a post from davewiner on Twitter, please reply and let the people who see it know that it isn't from me. # New RSS feature from Manton # A few days ago I asked Manton Reece if he could add a feature that gave me a feed of replies to me on his service, micro.blog. # I post a lot of stuff to micro.blog via my linkblog RSS feed. Every one of those items can be commented on. But unless I visit micro.blog regularly, I don't see the comments. I guess people have mostly figured out that I'm an absent poster, and don't say anything. Even so, there are some replies. Wouldn't it be great if the responses could show up in my blogroll. And of course if there was an RSS feed...
