Amazing series. Thunder kept it close, had a couple shots to get back in it late. Just a great win. Go Spurs Go! The finals are going to be fun. 🏀

Let’s go, game 7! Crazy that with tonight’s game, the Spurs and Thunder have played each other 12 times this season. Feels like it might be a record in the modern NBA era. 4 regular games + the NBA cup game, and now this series. 🏀

More notes on Standard.site

A couple extra things to mention on my announcement about Standard.site in Micro.blog. When you first publish a new long-form blog post, Micro.blog will create the site.standard.publication and site.standard.document records in AT Protocol. It then re-publishes your blog to update the <link> tags.

The <link> tags are in the Hugo template partials/microblog_head.html, which was just updated today. If you’ve customized this template for your blog, you’ll need to incorporate the new changes or delete your version so it falls back to Micro.blog’s default. The latest version is always on GitHub.

I wanted to roll this out quickly, and I’m still not sure on the timing of when Bluesky verifies publications (blogs) to include the new UI in the Bluesky timeline. I’m testing this live with my own blog. Expect a few tweaks here and there over the weekend.

Standard.site in Micro.blog

I’ve updated Micro.blog with initial support for Standard.site, a set of lexicons for long-form blogging on the atmosphere. I’m a little late to the party. Thanks to Leaflet, Pckt, and others for leading the way here.

Micro.blog’s cross-posting to Bluesky will create Standard.site records for blog posts that have a title. Short microblog posts (including posts without a title that need to be truncated on Bluesky) will not use Standard.site yet. I expect we may tweak this behavior over time, or add a setting for more control.

Happy blogging!

John Gruber coining the term dickover for the annoying modals that obscure content:

A webpage should show the webpage. An email should show the email. I should not have to explain this.

Couldn’t agree more. You will never see anything even remotely like this on Micro.blog or the blogs we host.

Finished reading: Moonbound by Robin Sloan. Truly bizarre, and I mean that in a good way. 📚

Seriously underestimated how long this db migration was going to take, leading to a deployment blunder that introduced a temporary cross-posting glitch. I’ve been juggling too much this week, making careless mistakes. Getting a lot done, though!

Last week’s Sharp Tech about data centers is really good. Misinformation, the lost opportunity with nuclear power, and SpaceX craziness.

The most compelling point: it’s possible that the demand for intelligence has almost no limit. If so, a lot of the insane scale starts to sound reasonable.

Finished watching Hacks season 5 this week. Great series. Each season had its own theme and arc, and they knew when to call it, not drag on past the story they set out to tell. 📺

Federico Viticci blogs about RemCTL, a command-line tool he built for Reminders:

So I decided to take matters into my own hands and build the Reminders CLI of my dreams with Codex. After about two months of work and everyday tests, the result is RemCTL (short for “Reminders Control”): to the best of my knowledge, it’s the only Reminders CLI that can read and write any kind of reminder and Reminders metadata…

Really impressive. I installed it to play with, even though I don’t really use Reminders. Works well.
