Saturday, October 31, 2026 The soup the whole soup and nothing but the soup so help me soup. # Feature request for twitter. I'd like to have a page listing all my tweets today on one page, so I can link to them from my blog. I would like to see twitter go back to its leading role in support of the web. # Two new attributes added to the source:inReplyTo element in RSS.chat feeds, feedUrl and feedTitle. These were requested by developers, and they seemed useful and reasonable, so we added them. Still more work to do here in creating a world wide discourse system, not one based on a single central node. RSS has more work to do for us. ;-) # BTW, I have been writing on Twitter the way I used to write on my blog. Paragraph after paragraph, and I go on, but I do eventually re-read it and it has the energy I haven't had in a long time. I think people now realize we are stuck. And in networking systems, I'm the guy you go to when y...

Friday, October 30, 2026 I've been watching short videos about training dogs, and really opening my eyes, and it helps when working with Claude. Always try to be positive, until there is behaviour you have to correct and then yank the leash, and when they do the right thing reward them with a treat (or whatever passes as a treat). # Highly recommend the interview between Scott Galloway and Heather Cox Richardson. Quite a combination of minds. Don't skip to the end but don't miss it, they explain how blogging allowed them to route around the gatekeepers. That's the point. But imho you have to leave the door open to those who are inspired by you, and Substack isn't the best place for them. Please keep your ears open to new less tech industry ways of getting your ideas out. The bigco's haven't just screwed up the political system, they've also screwed up the web. The web needs all our help as does democracy, and the two imho ar...

Thursday, October 29, 2026 People in ChatGPT-land are talking about Frontier . Not sure who they are or what the context is, but I agree, and want to do more integrations between our codebase and the AI runtimes. # Posted on Twitter re Frontier being real in 2026, not just a memory. # Knicks settle down # I was pretty sure the Knicks just needed to settle down, but the fans and the city and journalists and to some extent the team were still living mentally in June, in the aftermath of the greatest sports win in a long time. Then the team lost three, probably because they too were in the bubble of last year. This is the team that when asked how they felt about their chances in the playoffs when they were sweeping a team like the Sixers or Cavs, they would say -- the score in the next game is 0-0. If you believe it was your shit that made you win, try again. It's why rich people lead such miserable lives. They think they won t...

Wednesday, October 28, 2026 I'm doing a little project on rss.chat today and dusting off the cobwebs of my brain. Since I last worked on this project, I have converted Frontier to run on modern OSes and written a whole new app. Only three months, but I have no recollection, even reading the code isn't helping much. This is when it's incredibly good to have Claude Code on the job, I can ask it to guide me through the process we worked out which feels like it was 15 years ago instead of 15 weeks. It has complete recall. And even though it didn't work on Frontier, that was a different Claude project, it was able to debug something that broke in the build script in the interim. I've spent the whole year teaching Claude how to be me. Is that a source of immortality? I won't be around to figure that part out. # Braintrust query: Why do you love Markdown? I have a theory why people love it so much -- simplicity. You can't hide any garb...

Tuesday, October 27, 2026 Yesterday Ben Thompson wrote that we've reached the end of the web, and I had come to the same conclusion, just a few days ago. And his piece, which was a great milestone, said it's not totally gone, because of the advent of AI we can build small systems for each other. Which is exactly the motivation of the BigUndo model. What's big about it is how small the parts are and how nicely they fit together. We're not leaving everything behind in the great diaspora to the new web, we're not just bringing Markdown with us. It also echoes Marco Arment , who wrote a similar piece about Mastodon a few days before. Nothing wrong with Mastodon, but the idea of one model of service doing the work for everyone is ridiculous. We need a million different approaches, all we need to make it work is a standard they can all agree on for what forms of text move around the net. Once we agree on a format, we all can use whatever editor we lik...

Monday, October 26, 2026 I loved the term Big Undo so much, of course I had to get the domain. I started putting up my usual placeholder site but realized I should do this page in Markdown, not HTML. It looks fabulous. Markdown is right. It's sobriety, go back to the beginning and put the potency in the ideas, give writers the space to write. Get the F out of my way with your freaky character limits. Anyway I'm full of manifesto these days. The money people strangled the web. I think it's time for the creative people to make it work for real. # I've never had a web browser that worked remotely like I wanted it to. But that might change soon. Big things are possible now. I have a bunch of projects that I'm working on with Claude and going back and forth between them. And they're even starting to communicate with each other, at my behest of course. It's an interesting time for people to realize that the web was much more powerful ...

China News 26-Oct-2026   Three micro-documentaries: Understanding the CPC's self-governance How does a party of more than 100 million members sustain its commitment to self-governance? In this CGTN micro-documentary series, three stories explore the Communist Party of China's (CPC) drive for full and rigorous self-governance – from why its pursuit of self-revolution has no finish line, to how it seeks to prevent corruption and regulate the use of power. The series also examines how efforts to improve officials' conduct and tackle corruption at the grassroots level can lead to better public services and tangible benefits for people. ...

Sunday, October 25, 2026 Changed my bio on Twitter: "I make software to interop. Working on a new web designed for writers and readers and in place of HTML we use Markdown. Keep it super simple. The big undo." # Obama is doing the old Obama campaign schtick and it's something to see. He's got a few gray hairs, but he's still got the energy and chutzpah. I'd love to see him and Bernie Sanders on the same stage before this campaign is over. My favorite Obama clip is him wiping the schmutz off his shoulder, I forget who he was putting down, but wow it so concise. I also really liked the time when HRC flirted with him about her likeability. "You're likeable enough," he said. Trump gets the votes not necessarily because people are what people call them, he is a comedian, I say this so many times, that's the charm. Young folk may not remember Don Rickles and Joan Rivers, but that's Trump, and the other two probab...

China News 25-Oct-2026   The power of the long view: Three foreign voices on China's 15th Five-Year Plan As China enters its 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026–2030), three foreigners who live, study and travel here share what development looks like from the ground. For Daniel, a Russian vlogger with 15 years in China, it is the high-speed rail network that turns long journeys into hours, and skies that have grown visibly clearer. For Moraima Ordóñez, a Mexican student at Peking University, it rests on the CPC's leadership and a self-determined path, with education, innovation and social consensus as the cornerstones of a resilient society. For Anna Yuschenko, a Russ...
