I'm like 80% sure bluesky is mostly bots (evil) and an island of furries actually using the platform.

In case you prefer to use an editor that will never automatically sneak things into your commits, ed(1) is here for you.

It's less that atom/RSS is "dead", and more that its "done".

The protocol is finished. It works well. It's stable and unremarkable as opposed to trendy.

And to capitalists, that's "dead".

Nothing to hype, no wealth to extract.

Don't use LLMs

I've said this before, but I may as well say it again: more people should be doing 8- and 16-bit homebrewing, Even in assembly language, these have dozens of the friendliest tutorials ever, and the hardest part is just getting a toolchain together that will turn your source code into binaries that *run* on the consoles or in emulators.

I've been putting together quick build-and-run tutorials to close that gap, for a great many systems. Check it out.

That's it. There's more you can do, but spend a few days with a proper web browser and a real ad blocker and you'll get it.

it's 5:55am and 55 seconds, on 5/5, and I'm wishing a happy 55th birthday to the 555 timer.

a reminder to all on the Left - part of Mayor Mamdani's success is he is leading with visible joy - participating, being inclusive, and leading with what at least appears to be real genuine joy and pleasure in the success of others as well as in what he is getting to do - for example being the first sitting mayor to participate in the Five Boro bike tour in NYC today (clips are easily found - he's clearly enjoying himself)

It is not easy - there is much to be angry about - but celebrate also
