Sunday, October 20, 2024 Some of us do most of our writing on desktop computers. I guess we're in a very small minority. We can use a much better twitter-like system than the people who use mobile devices to tweet. I'm one of the desktop people. So I want textcasting . Mobile people either don't care or don't want it. So it stands to reason we need a different user interface. We can use the same network, we just need a different UI for editing. Since the twitter-like systems already carry links to stories written by people on desktops, there's room in their pipes for our writing too. And it can work more efficiently if the stories are part of the message as opposed to living off-site. Think of it as a web of writing. A writer's web that also carries short messages. # I did a podcast this morning about the reality of Musk owning Twitter, which is now completely settling in. He might have enough influence on the election to push Trump over. He wi...

Saturday, October 19, 2024 Eugen Rochko , the lead developer of Mastodon: "Fediverse integration in Threads is still in a sorry state over a year since launch. They need to be able to follow us back. They need to see when we mention them. Those are such basic things." They got what they wanted, they got the users and press to relax because they're Facebook who we know, but this is different, it's the fediverse. And they got Eugen and others to validate them. This always works, standard tech playbook. they give up nothing, then the priority changes. I don't like being right. But they're never going to change in Silicon Valley. They do what works, and take advantage of newcomers who want to believe. # It's possible the Dodgers let the Mets win as I begged them to yesterday, but it's also possible the Mets just crushed the Dodgers, but either way, the Mets are still in it. The series is now 3-2, and returns to Los Angeles tomorrow. So ...

Friday, October 18, 2024 Bloggers, here's an idea. When you write a piece you're proud of, end it with a sentence like this: "And that's why I have a blog." It plants a seed, which through repetition and appearing in many places, might help people appreciate the purpose of a blog. We've had a lot of mud slung at us, let's start undoing that. # The Dodgers soiled our lovable slumping Mets last night. It was a sad sight. One to forget as soon as possible. And don't forget folks, there's always next year. If I were the Dodgers, I'd expect the Mets to win tonight, and the Dodgers will probably begrudgingly go along with it. Otherwise we'd have to destroy Citi Field as we did when the Yankees celebrated their World Series victory in 2000 on the field of Shea Stadium. I was actual there the night that will live in infamy. Back then at first I objected to the destruction of our shrine to the glory of past Mets teams, but then I ...

Thursday, October 17, 2024 One of the things that makes me want to see Automattic stick around and grow is that they have a really large codebase that has been scaled, debugged and maintained for over 20 freaking years. And the most important thing -- they don't break users. The code I wrote to run against WordPress in the 00s still runs today. To me as a developer this speaks very loudly. It means it's safe to develop here. It means there's discipline in their development organization. Most companies don't do this, but the ones who do, have earned my deep respect. For all of Microsoft's sins, they were incredibly good at this too. It's why I liked working with them, and also why we laughed at each others' jokes if you can believe that. In some ways all the open source stuff is too complicated. I understand the concept of "development org" -- so I look at it that way. I dig around their codebase, see how they do things, and figure it...

Wednesday, October 16, 2024 Gruber gave me an idea when he put his NYY logo on his blog . I thought that was both interesting and weird. I don't get how anyone I know can be a fan of the that team. An American League team in a National League city. Kind of like rooting for Staten Island. Anyway, the Yankees may win the ALCS , but what does it mean? It's not going to make New York love them. But then Gruber is in Philadelphia so why isn't he thinking about the Phillies, who btw, the Mets beat soundly in the division series, earlier this month. In any case, I have made the team picture of the 1969 world champion Mets as the banner image on Scripting News for now and into the forseeable future. # BTW, I've been too busy to keep up with the Podcast0 feed. Not sure when I'll be able to pick it up again. # Threads just added an online status feature, where it'll show your icon to others with a green dot if you're online. I turned it off. ...

Accessing Remote Data with APEX - Local Sync Vs. Live REST Call #JoelKallmanDay Oct 16, 2024 · 6 min read Introduction Between them, Oracle APEX and Oracle REST Data Services (ORDS) provide several powerful integration capabilities. If you run in an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure environment (OCI), even more integration options are available, including DBMS_CLOUD.COPY_DATA (for fetching data from object storage) and Live Share for sharing data between ATP instances. When integrating data for consumption by an APEX Application, one of the first decisions you need to make is: Should I synchronize data to a local table or use REST APIs / DB Links / Live Share to access the data in the target instance in real-time? In this post, I will explore this question and provide my recommendations. The Case for Real-Time Integration There are some obvious reasons for fetching the data directly from the source as and when you need it: Up-to-Date Information : You always get the late...

Read this on my blog Hello, I hope you're enjoying October! This weekend I enjoyed time with family over Canadian Thanksgiving 🇨🇦. The second day of Advanced Frontend Testing in Vue is happening Thursday, and I'm excited for this one. I incorporated a lot of feedback from the first day, and I think it's going to be a great workshop. I can't wait to put this material together into the course for you all — I think there's a huge need for this testing content, and I'm excited to share it with you. In the meantime, I...
