had a nice convo with Jonathan about some of my favorite very old software! i also confusingly explain how i'm convinced that 'claudes in the cloud' are going to be a huge deal (recorded a month before openclaw took off...)

Finally, my toil in the clicking-mines paid off. I can now feature you alongside an equally valuable brand.

ok so, on my website you can earn coins and unlock stuff. one of those things one "i'll send you a sticker" and i never sent anyone a sticker! so now i'm finally coming clean and doing it. so just saying you can go to nateparrott.com and earn coins and you might get a limited-time-only sticker!

sry for the delay -- just took a look! it'll be fixed in the next update. Turns out this (podcast) feed only links directly to the audio -- there's no associated webpage. I've fixed it so each feed item takes you to the audio feed when tapped, which may not be ideal, but that's the data we've got!

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

thank you for the feedback! 1. yeah, i would love the bottom bar back. unfortunately ios seems to have made the top tabs mandatory on ios 18 when you're using swiftui. i agree they suck! 2. ya, i use a 3rd-party twitter scraper that isn't great. thx elon! 3. tell me more!
