👎 - I forgot to hit record in Descript before talking through my podcast episode for today. 👍 - Luckily I'd started a test live stream with Ecamm Live to see if it worked to stream + record episodes if I ever wanted to. 👎 - The camera layer wasn't on video version today is my desktop. 😆😌

Okay, just so we have a record: The Facebook Fake-Out, a record of Meta's tactic of transgressing, getting caught, waiting for things to blow over, and then breaking the rules again. I documented the pattern so we have a link to share for the next time they do it. www.anildash.com/2026/09/29/f...

The newly launched America.gov website is an LLM built on data from decades of actual work from people who made digital gov accessible and secure. Meanwhile, the current fed refuses to do anything well, so this LLM is a guaranteed security, privacy and accessibility risk. So yeah don’t use it.

Hey guys (in the penis having sense of the word), I need you to do a bit of research on “The Cornell 7” so that if someone IRL mentions it you can start from a position of empathy, rather than being an ignorant doofus in response to the news of 7 men raping a woman. Not all men, but it’s always men.

I think the core reason I’m really enjoying the daily podcast episode challenge is because I know I get to create something each day, rather than just watch other people get to. It’s silly how a framework like this gives me permission to think that way, but it works on my brain.

Ticketmaster should add a “sitting next to me at a concert or show” rating system to their app. After a concert it doesn’t show you names or faces, but the app shows you the seats around yours, and you tap on each to rate how enjoyable (or not) it was to be at that event with those people.
