Inkwell’s recap feature is not exactly 100% accurate, but I think I like what it suggests!
It’s late… but I think I finally got my blog lists recommendations working on my Blogrolls page… whew.
Finished watching: Better Call Saul S6E10, Nippy 📺
Good to go back to this show. I’m almost done. Seems like they are summing up… once Saul Goodman, always Saul Goodman.
Yesterday at some point at work I just reached my limit. I got up, left the office, took a nap at home, and reconsidered how to start scheduling myself out of meetings and stop replying to most emails. I’m worried about pushback but I need to face this worry.
Because I keep finding web pages listing other web pages (different blog lists that list independent blogs), I decided to add a category on my blogroll just for those. It also features my first pixel-art “masterpiece” and two quotes: one from a song I like and another from a movie I like.
I’m still working out the kinks (it required fixes for my CSS specifically for that image, and a new blogroll means a new shortcode in Hugo), but it should be fully operational shortly.
All the good indie web stuff I’ve posted and I didn’t talk about the shows I want to watch, the good movies I did watch, and I also want to keep trying for the video game stuff… I need a productive staycation.
Bubbles, Scrolls, and made by a human seal of approval
Exploring Bubbles, a blog-focused site similar to Hacker News; Scrolls, a newsletter tool for Fediverse Indieweb geeks; and a JSON-based tool to ensure a blog is made by a human rather than AI.
I haven’t heard about Bubbles before, but one of the folks I’ve added recently to my feeds introduced me, indirectly. Seems very promising for us bloggers! I signed up (basically, all you need is a Mastodon account).
My post about writing emails gets people to... write me emails. Good stuff.
There’s been a notable increase in emails from readers and fellow bloggers, especially because of my post about… writing each other emails. Who would have thought?
Claude fixed my page, and now it's teaching me how
Fixed my On This Day page using Claude. This was a lot. Forked the original script, customized Python for my Hugo setup, deployed on Render, then debugged JavaScript with Safari’s Inspector… two days’ work. Now I’m going back through everything to understand why it worked. This AI-assisted workflow keeps impressing me.
