Sunday, June 15, 2025 In a year or two it will be possible to create a perfect TV version of any person. No longer can you say any person has to die eventually and go away. And we can have anyone back we want. # I figured that yesterday's army march in DC would have caused clashes with the police in more places than it did, perhaps due to false flag attacks "from the left" at one of the many No King Day parades around the country. I thought this was the moment when it would all melt down. America's Reichstad Fire. If it were an episode of Mission Impossible or Batman, it would definitely have gone that way. I bet there were plans hatched on open chat channels between various Cabinet members and their families, and probably Elon Musk via an interpreter, to coordinate. I was also surprised there weren't any Tesla Cybertrucks in yesterday's parade. I guess the honeymoon is really over. Anyway, they had to have had a plan, but I keep forgett...

Saturday, June 14, 2025 Today's song: Queen of the Roller Derby . # If you think we need to find a way past the billionaires, then we have to find a way around the established media. They keep selling us out and we keep acting as if we show them that they're doing it in a way they understand they'll get on our side. But they can't. "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it," wrote Upton Sinclair in 1935. It's still true 90 years later. Another great philosopher, Les Moonves , said in 2016, "It may not be good for America, but it's damn good for CBS," referring to Trump's run for president. It was good presumably because of increased viewership resulting more ad revenue. I'm sure it's still true today, though CBS stopped boasting about it in public. # Working together # It's not just the government that's afraid of small...

Friday, June 13, 2025 Democratic resurrection plan # Having a Democrat rise from the ashes of metoo is just what the doctor ordered. It could cure the revulsion some voters feel for Democratic wokeness. Cuomo was never tried or convicted of any crime, or voted out of office by the state assembly or senate in Albany. Or the people of the State of New York. Al Franken wasn't allowed to have his case adjudicated by a committee of Congress. Both were pushed from office by journalism, which imho needs to be put in their place, they've been sloshing into lanes they weren't elected to. Let me try to make this clear. Journalism's role is to inform us of events. Once informed, it's their responsibility to stop. Anything past that is campaigning, not news. Step back and let the process run its course. Ultimately it's the people who will decide. Now, if Cuomo wins, this is the best outcome possible because the NYT et al will complain endl...

Thursday, June 12, 2025 Today I'm going to teach WordLand how to manage a linkblog . Before doing that I tried to figure out what a linkblog is. I have been using various homebrew linkblogging tools which I have shared with others, but none of them became popular products. I wrote a summary to help guide the development work I have planned. # I was lucky to grow up in NYC, and had to commute from Queens to the Bronx every day to go to school. Some days I took the Q44 bus over the Whitestone Bridge , and other days I took the Q16 to the 7 train through Manhattan, and then the 4 or D trains up to 205th St in the Bronx. Took the same amount of time either way. So at age 15 I was able to go see the Grateful Dead after school at the Fillmore East on April 27, 1971. Midway through the set, a special guest band who they didn't introduce started tuning up on stage. We all wondered who they were. I now know the history thanks to the 500 Songs podcast , and ...

Wednesday, June 11, 2025 I needed an updated bio for a conference in October. # I'm trying to make a linkblog with a WordPress RSS feed. # Using soldiers as a political prop. Trump gave a political speech, lying about protests in front of a group of people dressed as American soldiers. They all appeared to be enjoying the president's tough talk about the role he wants the military to play in policing the cities. MSNBC should not broadcast this. # Would one of the browser vendors work with me on doing something nice with displaying feeds in XML form? I don't support obfuscating what a feed is, that just adds confusion. When I lift the hood of a car I want to see an engine not a drawing of something that sort of looks like a car, but not really, and looks nothing like an engine. # Generalissimo Trump? # I was wondering if Saturday's military parade in Washington was going to be the rollout of the Trump junta, and if that meant the...

​ ​ Read this on my blog What's up? We're sooooo close to finishing Mastering Nuxt ! This week I'm working on the last set of videos for Mastering Nuxt, the module on authentication. Then, I need to re-record a few videos to fix some mistakes and tidy things up. Once Nuxt 4 stable is released, I'll re-record the very first video (where we install Nuxt) so it's all up-to-date. It takes a bit to edit and polish things up after recording, but we're looking good for finishing everything up not too long after Nuxt 4 drops! In other Nuxt news, my friend, Adam DeHaven, wrote a great article on how to power multi-tenant applications with Nuxt. Even if you don't have a multi-tenant application, this is a great article to read, filled with tons of advanced Nuxt tips and tricks.
