About to switch from my Pixel 3 and FitBit (been using Android since the very first Android phone) to an iPhone and Apple Watch. Wish me luck.

Every time an Intuit recruiter reaches out (frequently for some reason) I ask them to describe the job, then I say “Sorry, I’m just not that into it. Heh heh heh.” and the joke just never hits.

B&H Dealzone - little LED Pad light for under $100, comes with a grid. LedGo makes some solid products. https://bhpho.to/32hY1Os - ends in 5 hours.

buy lights!

Atom content can be a MIME type. Carousels are a presentation option.

Don’t forget that RSS is by definition unable to evolve to include other richer post types than just blog posts. Atom you could start to shoehorn other things into by adding namespaces and such. But does anyone really want to keep writing XML?

Don’t forget posting things other than blog posts and text. You want to post a photo? Sure you could embed that in a blog post I guess. A video? now it’s getting tricky. Maybe use Atom enclosures? Posting multiple photos to be shown as a carousel like instagram?

Okay now we're getting somewhere. Likes I can do without. Some kind of support for discussion feedback is worth having, whether something from IndieWeb, or building off the original ping back servers, or a disqus-like thing. Yes, something beyond RSS/Atom but maybe not instead of

I used RSS/Atom for years without a hitch.

I stated my opinion. I'm not sure why RSS/Atom are insufficient when I see how many more moving parts are involved in IndieWeb. I'm not concerned with how that "looks". That's how I want it to look. If you give me better feedback than simply suggesting i go all in, that's welcome

I'm having trouble understanding why I would make the investment. I don't need to try it until I believe there's a reasonable chance at a payoff. I have too many other ways to spend my time.

I'm not sure why RSS/Atom is insufficient for pretty much all social updates. IndieWeb tech is certainly more convoluted without obvious benefits.

Just realized it's Friday the 13th...in 2020. 👀

No worries, it was my fault (forgot IWC), will attend Social CG, just thought, if and @aaronpk would not be hungry then he/iwc-people could attend as well…

I get a lot of requests for coding tests in my videos, but I'm the farthest thing from a coder.

So to all the coders out there I hear you and want to include you.

Is there a program I can buy or run to give you a sense of the power of a tablet/computer?
