Monday, June 8, 2026 Said to Claude just now -- btw, it's very good we're using the outliner back and forth. we're going to build on that. # I can't convert scripting.com to https. If I moved the site to an https server, all the archives would break, and that's where the value of the site is, in the archives, where I've kept a history of the various things I've worked on. I'm still working on new stuff, but if this is all that was left to do, I'd move to the tropics and make pottery, I would not spend my last years on such an enormous stupid bullshit project. It's just not possible. But if you want to read the new stuff on my blog in https, you can. I have a mirror on a WordPress site . We even have the blogroll ported. # Sometimes you write a post and when you're editing it you realize you no longer support what you wrote. This is one of those times. # Linkblog items for the day ...

Sunday, June 7, 2026 All the news reports about AI tools repeat the same hallucination story they've been running for years. That's another huge bug in the news process. They only report on a small number of angles that might have been news a few years ago, and have no insights on what else is going on. They did this with the web too. They always pick an item that their narcissistic view of the world finds tasty. It's a huge bug in the system, and why "news" isn't valuable for news, it's mainly useful for a relaxing reassurance that nothing has changed, the world is fucked up in exactly the same way it was fucked last week, month, year, etc. It's a form of bedtime story. # WordPress and web text in the future # I wrote a blog post on Twitter this morning, sort of a version 0.4 of the talk I want to do at WCUS in August in Phoenix. # I want to offer cross-posting to twitter in an upcoming product, but...

Saturday, June 6, 2026 Walt Frazier : "The regular season is where you make your name, but the postseason is where you make your fame." # The Knicks won again last night. They're now up 2-0, both games on the road. This has blown my sense of reality. This Knicks team bears no resemblance to what I think of as the Knicks. Hard to concentrate. Will Trump try to put his name of Madison Square Garden. # Linkblog items for the day Paramount’s Weiss Woes. status.news When public charging stations aren't so public, and why it matters. electrek.co Knicks now overwhelming title favorites after shocking start to NBA Finals. nypost.com The European Social Stack. They should add a bunch of other formats and protocols to their list. The idea of bridging all those silos is a dead-end because they don't agree what text is. We have to go back to the roots, the web itself, to build an open s...

Friday, June 5, 2026 Google could do a mixture of AI and search. I want to search my blog for a place where I discuss the idea of hate is betrayed love even if I don't use the actual words. I bet they're working on it. # It's really cool we get another NBA Finals game tonight. I'm rehearsing what it feels like to be a fan of the Eastern Conference Champion NY Knicks. It still hasn't even slightly sunk in yet. # Elon Musk's X # I'm using EMX more than Bluesky, consciously -- realizing it was a mistake to move my social web act over there. There's no discourse to keep me there so I'm giving it less of my bandwidth. # I tried an experiment today, Paul Graham, a big tech influencer on EMX said all the Tesla haters were seemed to be gone, so I chimed in that I am one, and have just returned. I wanted to see what would happen. Yeah I got trolled. Won't be doing that again. # hate == l...

Thursday, June 4, 2026 Having fun rolling stuff out on Elon Musk's X. # The Knicks in the Finals # I didn't write about the Knicks prior to last night's game because I had no idea what to write. # The Knicks in the Finals is something I had a hard time understanding, even thinking about. To me the Knicks are soulful losers. They're like once-future hall-of-famer Carmelo Anthony surrounded by people who shouldn't even be in the NBA, but otherwise are lovely individuals. When they asked Melo what his goal was he said it was to win a championship, but the reporters never followed up with the obvious question -- "Really?" They did make the playoffs, three times, in the Age of Melo, and they made it to the second round one of those three seasons, but that was it as far as Melo's championship aspirations went. He should've been on one of LeBron's teams, like JR Smith and Iman Shumpert , both Knic...

Wednesday, June 3, 2026 We need a social web for nobodies. # Claude is much better at starting from scratch with a big piece of code than humans are. It can suck in a full app and all its dependencies in a few seconds. For me, I would never get there. A finished piece of software is much bigger than people think, because the details are mostly pretty well hidden. But if you want to work on the code, you have to worry about it all. But I just had a minute to ask Claude why I made a certain decision a couple of months ago, and it found the answer in its notes and then I remembered it. This is one of many ways it rewrites the rules of building software out of a big library of components. It can manage complexity for you which means of course we will make more complex software and at the same time make it simpler. Code complexity becomes something you don't have to trade off against, like time vs space, the oldest tradeoff in software. # Useful co...

Tuesday, June 2, 2026 This podcast is called MacWrite for the web. A coral reef for writing. I think the pieces are coming. We just need a little Ice-nine . # Dries : "For an Open Source company, the test is not only what they build for themselves. It is what they help build for everyone." # On Twitter : "I envision a network of twitter-like systems built out of components of the web and nothing more. Every part replaceable." # The only twitter-like system that does text right is Elon Musk's X. I find that somewhat ironic. It's also the only twitter-like system where there's any kind of an actual community. They also have an API that works, has been around for more than a couple of years, and doesn't have a W3C working group messing with it. There's a lot of hype flying around, and we don't have any real journalists covering it so there is no real source of truth. I think the entrepreneurial t...

Monday, June 1, 2026 John C Reilly has only one audiobook, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest . But it's the best audiobook I've ever read, because the narrator and the book are great, esp together. Wish he would do more. Also there's a great interview with him on the Rachel Martin podcast . # If you work at Automattic as a developer, if there's another Radical Speed Month for devs, if you want, let's work on a project together even though I don't work for the company. I'm most interested in making products work together where the result gets people thinking about the web in a new way. A8C has a big enough product set, and FeedLand and WordLand are by design well-equipped to talk with other products. I love APIs and we have some good ones to work with, and some very underexplored (imho because we got too fixated on the silos for so long). Very much open to ideas, and I love working with good developers. Maybe I'll post...

Sunday, May 31, 2026 The purpose of standards is interop. That's it. No other purpose. # Just watched the first episode of Star City , really good. Somewhat like The Americans, but takes place in the USSR. A spinoff of For All Mankind , which started out interesting and then became unwatchable, though I did enjoy the sets on Mars. I also liked the character who was inspired by Elon Musk, obviously. # There have been problems reported with subscribe.scripting.com . At least some of them are fixed. It's hard to test this kind of software because you can't really tell what went wrong. If people report problems they just say it didn't work. But real problems were fixed, so if you've had trouble subscribing or unsubscribing, now is a good time to try again. And thanks for your patience, and sorry for the screwy app. ;-) # How bad was it with the Knicks. As something of a joke, but not really, Knicks fans would disguise th...
