The Micropub spec is fascinating. I might build a server in Go to try it out. Are there any good micropub clients? #IndieWeb

This Youtube channel is fantastic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pNRuafoyZ4
I love this. Kagi seems like a very cool company. https://blog.kagi.com/small-web
I’ve been thinking about a social media model where your website is your profile and where your posts live. There would be aggregator services kinda like mastodon that you submit/connect your website to and it would facilitate boosting/discovery and commenting.
Maybe it would be possible to access those comments and have them displayed on your own site too.
This is a little like hacker news I guess, except once connected each post would automatically be shared with your “home server”.
Heading out to do some flying this afternoon. The weather is definitely marginal, so it'll be a good opportunity to push my skills.
Weather was too bad to fly so I stayed in the ground. Aww well!
I've started using Karibiner Elements to remap my keyboard. This is a slippery slop. Please send help!
I recently switched from using the Apple Magic Mouse to their Magic Trackpad and so far it is a big improvement. We'll see how my wrist holds up.
I got to see Foy Vance play with the Ulster Orchestra. It was incredible. I’ve you’ve not listened to Foy Vance, you should. I cannot recommend him enough. He’s criminally underrated. #Music
I've been using Kagi as my search engine for a few weeks now and I don't think I'll be switching back anytime soon. For a few dollars per month, my entry in to the internet is a serve for me, not a space where I can be advertised to. Definitely recommend checking it out.
The #html element is fantastic on mobile and basically unusable on desktop. It's very frustrating!
I got very familiar with the Chrome debugger tools today. They are so good. I wish I’d started using them earlier in my career. I didn’t fix the bug I was looking at, but the tools are very cool!
I have just learned that the word volumous is not a real word and that the correct word is voluminous.
What?!
Looks like the BBC is experimenting with the #fediverse

This is a great article. I dislike the terms introvert and extrovert, it’s so much more nuanced!
I’d very happily be wrong, but more and more I believe building backends for anything important with a non typesafe language is a bad idea.
I think I include #TypeScript in this, which is just a non typesafe language wearing a monocle.
