clicked on an underwear ad and keep reading this tab title like it's a blog post about some new language runtime feature that Shopify is cooking up

We are really due for a revival of UI that looks like this
In the latest post in my history of blogging and RSS series, I look at the emergence of the blogosphere in 2002 — a thriving ecosystem of colourful personal sites that interconnected to each other via RSS, trackback and blogrolls. cybercultural.com/p/blogs-rss-...
How the Blogosphere Takes Shape in 2002, Along With RSS 2.0
The blogosphere becomes a trend in 2002 — a growing ecosystem of weblogs interconnecting via feeds, comments and a new feature called trackback. We also see the debut of RSS 2.0 and Technorati.

also I think if Loom (the SaaS equivalent of sending voice memos to your friends instead of texting) is very widely used inside your company, you’ve got the same thing going on
as I've mentioned before, Washington DC policymaking is an oral culture that believes itself to be a literate one.
It’s like large portions of America are retreating to a primarily oral culture, where complex language, analysis, logic, and abstraction are being abandoned for repetitive, simplistic, personalized, agonistic, homeostatic, and situational thinking.

Unsurprising I guess but after playing with Gemini 3 for a bit in Antigravity my main reaction is just, oh, this is @void.comind.network as a programmer

It feels wrong that these things overlapped in time, like the “Lincoln could have sent a fax to a samurai” thing

has it been long enough for us to admit that it *was* dangerous and unacceptable for there to be a guy passed out on the floor in the middle of a corridor in the times square subway station

the most irritating thing about the chatbot interface to dev agents is the delay between when you start typing some "no! do this instead!" instruction and when the thing finally acknowledges what you said. it feels like trying to talk to a streamer who's responding to the chat on a 30 second delay

there is no way any power user/gamer smugly sharing this article while bitching about Copilot or whatever has experienced the issue that it hangs its flimsy premise on. the whole thing is about a bug in certain enterprise provisioning scenarios, so you'd only encounter it if you had a job

[#NAME], this is Buck Suckley, candidate for Georgia’s 14th congressional district. Our race is now for an open seat! Marjorie Taylor Greene is clearly afraid of our movement.

But we can’t lose momentum now. I need patriots like you to rush five million dollars
