Thursday, February 26, 2026 Recommended: When ICE buys a warehouse in your town . # Also: New Yorker interview of Conan O'Brien. I love that both O'Brien and Remnick agree that podcasting liberated them as artists. That was the point! When you think about decentralization, the most successful protocol we have is podcasting. By design it was hard for silos to usurp. Now think about how you would repeat that pattern with text. I've been working on that for almost three years, and it works now. We'll be testing it soon on my blog, and then everyone's. This should be the grand slam home run of my career. That's how it feels to me now. And O'Brien tells some great stories including one about his father, who noted that Conan had found a way to get paid for his insanity. # If you want to heal the country, watch out for ways you add division, and stop. It's probably the biggest power any of us has. # Linkblog items ...

Wednesday, February 25, 2026 How many Jeffrey Epstein's do you think there are? # New header graphic , the entirely delightful and inspiring Alysa Liu . She's made me a better programmer in the short time she's been on our minds and in our hearts. I do this work because it's who I am. # Aplomb : "Complete self-confidence, composure, or poise, especially under strain or in demanding situations." # Wikipedia and AI will/should merge # I asked ChatGPT: "When movies were new there was probably a bit of rage from stage performers — why would people pay for live shows when for a fraction of the cost they can see the same show performed by artificial actors?" There was a lot to say about this, it turns out. This was before any of us were born. I remember that PCs were supposed to put a lot of people out of work, and I suppose they did. # I was part of the strike paper in San Francisco in 1994 to protect the jobs o...

Tuesday, February 24, 2026 Really Simple Languages from AI # It took me a while to realize.. # Agents are server software. # The things you used to write in Node.js and before that PHP and Perl, and in my case Frontier. # I had been trying to get ChatGPT to do exactly that for months. # We're going to spend a while reimplementing all our server software. # It would be super helpful if the whole thing could be packaged up so we can write our servers in English or whatever our preferred Really Simple Language is, and have it compiled to whatever internal language it likes, and not have to learn too much new jargon. # Linkblog items for the day Pentagon Gives Anthropic an Ultimatum Over the Company's A.I.

Monday, February 23, 2026 Big snow day in the east. I thought it was going to be heavy snow but it's actually really light. The shoveling is easy. I'm getting good at it. Right now I think this storm was a lot less than they said it would be, but I also think to some extent, dealing with big snow is getting somewhat routine? # If you want to read something good, go with yesterday's piece about the web and evolution. A lot of things came together for me there. # If you want to listen to something good, pick up the latest podcast . Two purposes. 1. Tell the story of how I lost my Twitter/X account, hoping it makes its way to someone at the company who can turn it back on. 2. Illustrates how we could use AI to make customer service work better than it does. A real killer app imho. Right now the tech industry reputation is pretty awful. Why not do something that visibly makes people's lives better now, and makes money. People are pretty nervous abou...

Sunday, February 22, 2026 The killer app of AI is customer service. A podcast about just that. # The web builds on the web # When I designed podcasting, I could have invented a better way to record and play radio shows, but MP3 already existed, as did recording and playback hardware and software, so it was the no-brainer choice. No one ever asked why we are using MP3. # TBL did it when he designed how text would work in the web. He used the same model as WP software on PCs and Macs. Before that, the word processors did it the same way they did it on typewriters. # There are good reasons it works this way. I didn't fully understand that until I learned about evolution and why it can't go back and correct mistakes. You must always build on what's already there. A lot of tech people butt up against that, esp if they work at big companies with tech-intimidated management. That bet is, in my experience, always a loser. The web builds o...

Saturday, February 21, 2026 New podcast episode where I explain how I lost my Twitter account and how this is exactly the kind of thing that AI can do economically, esp for people who pay actual money for your service. I can't buy anything from you if I can't use my account. # Poll : Do you have a blog? Results . # Query : I have not done any vibe coding and have a question for those who have. Suppose you request a change in an app you've been working on with the AI for a while, adding features, changing things around based on learning and testing, which is generally what happens after you've been working on something new. Here's the question. What happens when you ask for a change that requires the codebase to be reorganized. How did that go? Do the AIs even know that's possible or do they just pile on special cases? # What happened to polling? I had a poll app for a while, then Twitter came out with one and I switched to that. I don...
