Someone explored Infotron deeply enough to discover a few easter eggs in the level designs, including (apparently) my own signature:
It took real work to do this! It’s not possible to see portions of levels that are “out of bounds” in the game itself. Whoever did the work had to reverse engineer the level format, write code to fully render each level, and then actually examine each image in detail. That’s quite some effort for a (long-forgotten?) 25-year-old shareware game.

Yesterday was moodily wet and dark in Seattle. I hit record and this moody… cheese emerged. Sometimes you just gotta go with the cheese:

Some reader progress, channels are now working! I'm not ready to change my reading habits just yet though, so my channel list still allows me to choose "all feeds". I think to change the way I read I need to add a few more features. The first is some sort of notification that a channel has new items, otherwise I'll just end up not checking some low volume channels.
The other thing I really want to add is setting a channel per author for multi-author feeds. There are two feeds I have in mind for this, the facebook and twitter atom feeds generated by Ryan's amazing services.
The last screen shot is of a small change I'm glad to see working, which is picking up when an item is being displayed from a feed on a domain that doesn't match the author. It now adds a little "via" link which helps when no other details of the feed are displayed.

I’ve been working on a new project with Ben Gilbert at PSL!
It’s called Kimberlite. Our mission is to give podcasters superpowers. We’re starting with a power that we’ve always wanted for ourselves: the ability to ask fans for money, and collect it, without making anybody jump through hoops. Like, zero hoops: tap the “join now” button, authenticate with Face ID, and you’re done.
If you’re a podcaster and you’re interested in direct monetization, definitely say hi.

This short statement by Micah Cohen, from a recent episode of the FiveThirtyEight Politics Podcast, caught my ear:
We wrapped up the live blog at 2:30AM and before we wrapped it up I was looking at [newspaper] headlines.
Almost all of them had some version of “Split Decision”… which is stupid, really.
People are confusing inputs and outputs. The input was not a split decision: where the American people are at at this moment is super clear. The output? Sure, it’s split. But that’s not the same thing.
Clearly, the inputs were strongly pro-Democrat. I still think “Split Decision” is a good description in the sense that Bill Kristol used it: it wasn’t a good night for Republicans, but neither was it an obvious repudiation of Trump and Trumpism. In that sense, I remain disappointed by the midterms. Sure, I didn’t really think that America would “rise up as one” against Trump… but I certainly hoped for it.

Micro.blog now supports Mastodon. It’s great.
It’s also a reminder that federated social networking can sometimes be (unavoidably) complicated:
Your custom domain on Micro.blog can now be ActivityPub-compatible, so that you can follow and reply to Mastodon users directly on Micro.blog. This also means someone can follow your blog posts by adding @you@yourdomain.com on Mastodon. (This username is configurable. Mine is @manton@manton.org.)
I wonder how many users will fully understand this and make use of it?
