I am trying out a method to reduce bot attempts on forms like on my contact page based on fluffy’s example.
On select pages, I now check for a specific cookie. If it is not found or is more than 24 hours old, then the browser redirects to the “Sentience Check” page. That page is a minimal form with a button to indicate “Yes, I am a hooman.” Submitting the form sets the expected cookie and redirects back to the original page. If Javascript is enabled, it will submit the form as soon as the page loads, so most hooman visitors will only see the intermediate page for a second and should be able to continue without issues.
Also at fluffy’s suggestion, the sentience check page returns a response code of 429: Too Many Requests with a header that indicates: retry after one hour. I have no high expectation of the bots respecting that, but maybe the lack of successful response codes will cause some to back off.
The last thing I did was add a noindex meta tag on the page, so search engines should ignore it.
If you’d like to view the page, I recommend turning Javascript off temporarily and then visiting: gregorlove.com/sentience-check/.
I am interested to see how much this will reduce bot attempts on the contact and public sign-in pages. I have had CSRF and honeypot form field protections on both for quite a while, but of course I still see a lot of attempts on them.
Depending how this goes, I might expand its usage to the “send a webmention” form and explore using it to block LLM bots.
I did consider using “I am a meat popsicle” on the button, but not everyone might get The Fifth Element reference.

Hosting a dinner tomorrow. Just put an 8 pound bone-in pork shoulder on the Big Green Egg with my trusty (old) Stoker BBQ controller. I shot the URL to the monitoring page over to my OpenClaw agent and they’re gonna keep an eye on it while I sleep. My first AI monitored BBQ!

In reflecting on my own typewriter collection, I thought I'd look through it to see how some of the models I gravitate toward compare to those others are collecting. As a potential proxy for this, I took a look at the most popularly collected typewriter models according to the Typewriter Database and compiled a list of the top fifty, which appears below. (Numbers in parenthesis are the number of examples in the database.)
Naturally the data isn't perfect and some of the numbers broadly track the manufacturing numbers of some of the most widely made models across the 20th century, particularly models which, though they changed in style and design over time, kept the same model name for decades. Despite this, the list of the top 50 doesn't seem too far off of what one might expect.
Which models would you have expected to see more of? Which less? Does your taste in machines track the most "popular" by this measure? How does this list compared to the Rarity vs. Desirability list from ETC Magazine with respect to your collection? What other measures or benchmarks might one consider in collecting?
Have you uploaded all of your own examples to the Typewriter Database to help "even out" the data? Even if you don't add them all, which favorites will you add to help your "favorite team" move up the rankings?

"html": "In reflecting on my own typewriter collection, I thought I'd look through it to see how some of the models I gravitate toward compare to those others are collecting. As a potential proxy for this, I took a look at the <a href=\"https://typewriterdatabase.com/popular.0.typewriter-models\">most popularly collected typewriter models according to the Typewriter Database</a> and compiled a list of the top fifty, which appears below. (Numbers in parenthesis are the number of examples in the database.)\u00a0\n\nNaturally the data isn't perfect and some of the numbers broadly track the manufacturing numbers of some of the most widely made models across the 20th century, particularly models which, though they changed in style and design over time, kept the same model name for decades. Despite this, the list of the top 50 doesn't seem too far off of what one might expect.\u00a0\n\nWhich models would you have expected to see more of? Which less? Does your taste in machines track the most \"popular\" by this measure? How does this list compared to the <a href=\"https://www.antikeychop.com/mostwantedtypewriters\">Rarity vs. Desirability list from ETC Magazine</a> with respect to your collection? What other measures or benchmarks might one consider in collecting?\n\nHave you uploaded all of your own examples to the Typewriter Database to help \"even out\" the data? Even if you don't add them all, which favorites will you add to help your \"favorite team\" move up the rankings?\n\n1. Royal Quiet De Luxe (610)<br />\n2. Smith-Corona Sterling (400)<br />\n3.

From 1957, the year the Dodgers announced their move to Los Angeles, I've got my Dodger Blue Royal FPP typewriter ready to go to score the home opener! Blue ink at the ready, I can already hear a military bomber circling my neighborhood on the way to a flyover of the stadium. ⚾🏟️

Anthropic’s expansion of token limits, scaling from 200k tokens to 1M tokens, is huge. It’s enabling me to engage at a deeper level during brainstorms, and allows the model to fit more code into the context window.

MacRumors
Apple Unveils 'Apple Business' All-in-One Platform
Apple today announced Apple Business, a new all-in-one platform that unifies device management, productivity tools,...
MacRumors’ coverage of Apple’s new business program includes this gem:
The platform introduces Managed Apple Accounts with what Apple describes as "cryptographic separation" between personal and work data, allowing employees to use the same device for both purposes without commingling information. Account provisioning can be automated through integrations with identity providers such as Google Workspace and Microsoft Entra ID.
For those of us who work for large enterprise, this would be a godsend, making it much easier to comply with IT restrictions and access personal Apple services at the same time. Cool!

I'm impressed, Cathay Pacific transferred my vegetarian meal request to the new flight they moved me to after the incoming flight was late and missed the connection. Normally airlines say oh well you didn't reserve the meal 72 hours before the flight.

My typewritten baseball scorecard for Tampa Bay Rays at Atlanta Braves on 2026-03-24. I'm trying to work out the cobwebs of my scoring technique before opening day Thursday.
I also filled in a card from my #22 Numbers Game scorebook as well. It's been ages since I tracked pitches. I'm thinking that this would be a good reason to pull out the old 0.3mm multipen for the next game.
