• Why is RSS not an option for importing content from one blog CMS to another? It has every detail you need for content of blog posts and yet it’s rare for a CMS to offer that as an import option.

    In podcasting, that’s the default option for how to move your podcast to another podcast host.

  • The new dynamic Keynote themes look like fun. I haven’t had a need to give a presentation in 5+ years, but it makes me want to put one together again.

  • Nothing about the images people share of spatial personas in Apple Vision Pro makes me want to get one. I’m sure inside VR / AR it’s great and impressive.

  • This is what I’ll point to when people say “Discord is killing forums!” 🤦‍♂️

    A question from a forum reading “Hi,&10;I would like to include RSS feeds in a sidebar. Do you have suggestions for where to look?” with an answer reading “Any JavaScript that does this will work.”

  • My annual spring make work project is to shovel snow off my front yard onto the sunny patches of my driveway in a futile attempt to ward off snow mold and other grass killing things.

    This is mirrored by my summer make work project of trying to grow grass on my front yard. Also futile.

  • Does Ghost do any sort of URL redirecting? If I’m moving a blog over that has a /year/month/post-name structure, will Ghost do any magic to redirect that to just /post-name/?

  • A friend was over and casually commented on how “…as middle aged people commenting on the strike and support for teachers, it’s great to have your support…” and my brain nearly exploded at the accuracy but also the reality I hadn’t fully grasped or accepted.

  • 7 Wonders is a fun game to play multiple times in an evening so you can remember how simple it is to play, yet difficult to win.

  • Somehow I got a bunch of Bluesky reply notifications via the Micro.blog iOS app last night. They don’t show up in the replies on the app itself. And I don’t think I changed any settings anywhere?

    Just me? @help

  • I love using a combo of Discord’s Threads feature + Notion to manage episodes of podcasts I work on for clients. I just wish all my clients loved using Discord + Notion as much as I do. ☺️

    I’m too much of a people pleaser to require it.

  • I generally appreciate the fact that I don’t who’s following my account here, much like my blog, but every so often it’d be nice to know who’s in my community on here.

    But not knowing also keeps me from overthinking about a follower count and vanity metrics, so… probably a good trade off.

  • Don’t despair if you’ve wrapped your identity around a dude on a podcast.

    Whether it’s a “hit piece” or not, I promise you there’s a hundred more Huberman clones waiting in the wings to take your time, attention, and money away from your family and friends.

  • When you unhook the water line from the washing machine to flood the rink, it’s very important that everyone in the house knows not to start a load of laundry.

    Aka “why is there water dripping in the furnace room?”
