Scripting News: Tuesday, September 19, 2023

Tuesday, September 19, 2023
Yesterday the "former president" as he's referred to on TV, or Mr President on NBC, shared a post that said Jewish liberals are destroying America. Let's mark this line clearly. Talk like that is full of alarm for Jewish people, esp those raised by people who survived the last holocaust. If this doesn't stop you in your tracks, then you probably won't notice when they start calling us vermin, restricting our movement, take our property, move us to ghettos and then systematically incinerate us the way you would rid yourself of an infestation. You know the old story about the frog boiling in water. We all are on that path. This was always where Make America Great Again was going, an America with all the Jews dead. That this isn't Story One on every front page and newscast says everything you need to know about how journalism is failing us. #
If anyone from MacArthur or Knight is tuned in, here's an idea. Help us get an EZ-Pass for News going. It's a bootstrap. If there were incentives. If it were seen as a good cause. It could increase the fluidity of news around the country and world by an order of magnitude. That can't help but increase cash flow through news orgs. But more importantly it give us more access to ideas that don't come from the NYT et al. Might be a nice way to boost all the local news orgs being supported by the $500 million fund. #

How's it going? I was planning to release the update for Reusable Components yesterday, but things haven't gone as planned. Instead, I will be launching it next week. I need a just a bit more time to make sure that the quality is up to my standards. As I've been updating the course and re-writing all the content and step-by-step refactorings, I've also been able to simplify a few things. It's just like refactoring a piece of code, and it's one of the greatest feelings. I also looked at how much content is in there, and it looks like it will be similar to the Clean Components Toolkit. Lots of great content on how to write highly reusable components, simplified and updated — I can't wait to release the update next week! Oh, and one more thing: I'm doing a podcast with Alex Lichter ! It's called Deja Vue and we'll be releasing the first ...

Scripting News: Monday, November 20, 2023

Monday, November 20, 2023 I'd pay $10K up front # Matt Mullenweg : "Sales of the 100-year plan so far: 0. Hundreds of people filled out the form, though. I think we really messed something up in the follow-up, including not making it self-serve to start. Will review and try again. It's an important promise to us." # I'm very much a customer for this service. It would be worth $10K for to buy 100 years of persistence for my web writing. A simple easy to understand service that helps get the process started. # I transfer scripting.com to Automattic as registrar. # I upload the contents from S3 to Automattic server. Static files, HTML, feeds, images, code. # Automattic provides an API to keep the files updated and so I can add to them as long as I'm still writing. # The files are publicly accessible over HTTP. # Automattic agrees to renew the domain for 100 years, and manage access to the files, with reasona...
