awww bummer. Our speaker this Thursday night cancelled last minute, so now I have to figure out what to do.
Spent some time in the guts of Ruby processing for my news reader app. Some via code I wrote ages ago, but sprucing it all up now. ✅ Feed autodiscovery (thanks Feedbag gem!) ✅ Publication icon pulled from touch icon or favicon ✅ Curator tags plus overridden user tags

another day, another 'Twitter's UI is user-hostile, actually' 🤷
why the hell is the top option here “unfollow”? Just accidentally unfollowed a friend who’s on private because I tried to tap into one of their tweets and when the...
