This looks like a great update to the Post Stats plug-in. Thanks @amit!

If your blog is on Micro.blog and you’ve been blogging for a while, try the new setting on the Design page to upgrade to Hugo 0.158. For my blog — almost 10k posts — the new version makes a huge difference in speed. We’re now using Hugo’s new renderSegments feature to optimize publishing.

It has been six years since the start of Covid, and I still catch myself trying to hold my breath in crowded spaces like an elevator. It doesn’t make any sense! I hope my brain hasn’t been permanently rewired for fear. 😷

I’m not sure what it means that the Microsoft Authenticator app is in the top 20 in the App Store, but I don’t think it’s good.

Wemby was close to getting a 5x5 last night. 19 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals, 7 blocks. Whenever he has a few steals there’s a chance. Can’t believe the playoffs are next month! 🏀

Years ago I made a rule to never use Git submodules, after too many headaches with Subversion externals before switching to Git. More trouble than they’re worth. I broke that rule once and it still trips me up.

Terry Godier has a new blog in addition to his main site of longer essays. It looks great. Hosted by Micro.blog. 🎉

This is cool: Bridgy Fed now supports long-form blog posts in AT Protocol via the standard.site lexicon. I guess I need to hurry up with my own implementation of this.

I like this framing about the Rabbit R1:

Humane’s AI Pin followed that trajectory almost exactly, discontinued in early 2025 after HP acquired the company. The R1 did not follow it, though the reasons why have less to do with any brilliant pivot than with stubbornness, incremental software updates, and a fair amount of luck.

Do not underestimate stubbornness and incremental updates. That’s practically my whole strategy.

It’s a small thing but when I’m a regular at a coffee shop and they know my order when I walk in, it gives me so much joy. Great way to start the day. This sometimes even happens when traveling after a few days at the same place. ☕️
