it’s a different kind of thinking - but really good use of those three apps does require you to be creative - even though I don’t like the absorption into the larger bucket.

🔗 Those new service sector jobs - Marginal REVOLUTION

> Who needs to be a programmer, be hired to close the doors on Waymo vehicles

all of them eventually lead me to trying another one. Right now on Reeder - and Brent just release V7 of NetNewsWire - so over I go. Specificity? Hard - just - it isn’t quite right.

@amerpie I found out about it from your post

@amerpie it is … not spent money yet … need to understand the depiscrepany

@MitchWagner when you find one … let me know … in the same boat … hell I even struggle with a single place to follow RSS

@frankm could you not just use the ‘long post’ category that delivers an RSS feed to populate DayOne using something like Zapier/IFTTT ❓

@lmika 🪦

@bkryer well holy moly - never knew - even though I routinely utilise LEET in different ways for unknown reasons - and clearly with

Thank you.

🔗 Even wikipedia has an entry - although 1337 does not.

@theo.io Found me … and now off to find why I am there and not somewhere else. Thank you.

@manton > Economists have a word for assets that can be swapped one-for-one without loss of value: fungible. A dollar is fungible. A barrel of West Texas Intermediate crude is fungible.

… so is ‘content’ … in the platform’s eyes. They don’t care if it is a Joan Westerberg article or AI slop … they just need people to stick around and read, watch, share it … end of.

It’s all fungible content for there silo … like a grain of wheat in a silo .. who cares if farmer Giles’ has a problem … get new grain from the farmer next door.

@amerpie > I’m probably not smart enough to truly appreciate classical music

Say what now?

If anyone needs to be smart to enjoy any kind of music .. then it is the fault of the music.

Why do we not need to be smart to enjoy jazz? Progressive rock? Drum and bass? Blues? Power pop?

We need to leave behind these ideas of ‘high’ art .. concepts with little meaning other than making that community feel better about themselves.

Oh .. and I read your stuff .. you are plenty smart.

@jayeless all aspects of how we know mentally what we want … but to code for it is tough.

@manton Started to reply - got too long - so moved it into a full post

@manton i am running with a live example right now - a published post that I am tweaking. I even add in ‘odd’ words at the beginning so i can quickly tell if the change has kicked in or not.

According to Mars Edit.

Initial Post: 2:31pm

I have made a few edits since then and my last one - again according to Mars Edit - 4:24pm

As I type this reply it is 5:12pm - and the changes haven’t kicked in.
