This morning, a woman came up to me in the breakfast area of a TownePlace Suites and told me, “if you like coffee, this place has **the best** coffee.” I got a cup, and it was the exact same low quality coffee you would find in any budget extended-stay hotel’s lobby. 🤷

Aren’t these the same people who think that “15 minute cities” is a socialist UN plot to restrict free movement, now straight up telling people “drive less”? 🤔

Tonight I said the words “Jenny Lewis” in public and a millennial woman emerged from nowhere offering to answer any questions I had about Jenny Lewis.

Back in the day we taped a polaroid camera to a stick. Hilarity ensued.

As far as I can tell, there are APIs to get a list of your own faves and to get a list of users who have faved a particular post. But no way to pass in another user's ID and get a list of their faves. (If anyone familiar with the AT protocol knows of a way this is possible, please let me know!)

Flickr allows you to retrieve the list of items that have been faved by any user, so that's what I'm pulling the fave data from. Unfortunately there's no way to pull in faves from other users on Bluesky, Mastodon, or Instagram — everything's a walled garden now.

But after thinking about this for years, I finally came up with a way to partially recreate it using Tapestry by @iconfactory.com as the front end and a new app I built and deployed to Cloudflare Workers to build the timeline on the backend.

I'm not sure if anyone else remembers Stellar by @kottke.org (kottke.org/11/03/introd...), but it was such a great way to discover new things and I've missed it since it shut down. It would be impossible to fully rebuild today, as most social networks don't offer APIs to access other users' faves.

When did web browsers remove the status bar that used to be at the bottom of the window? Suddenly I'm remembering all of the early websites that would update the status bar text as you hovered over different things, or would "scroll" text to make a ticker. Does anybody else remember this?

Rumor is they’re buying the Netherland Plaza, which is overdue for a renovation, so that will be nice if true.

Every part of this convention center project has been “fire, aim, ready.” Wish they would have considered buying and renovating both the Millennium and Netherland Plaza in the first place.

100% agree with @myke.social here. Having the internet on a home PC and being able to IM with friends, browse forums, research any topic you could imagine, get exposure to new ideas—but then leave it behind when you left your house—was the best.
