If Ben Werdmuller is wondering about the look of his front page, maybe that means that @WithKnown will get a template system that mere mortals can understand … but probaby not.

This is why I contribute my bit to the Internet Archive, when I can.

Spending time cleaning up my RSS feeds in Newsblur and it isn’t easy. I can export the OPML, and work directly on that, but is there a tool that will let me do so easily? Codebeautify’s treeview doesn’t let me edit the tree. opml.org seems dead. Is there anything else?

Very grateful to John Naughton for pointing to this article, which explains the problems and some of the solutions and which seems like an obvious dose of sanity. Ultimately, like many discussions around solutions to climate changes, this is a “yes, and” rather than an “or” choice. We can, and should, build more transmission capacity and storage, whilst reforming the market such that the UK’s phenomenal success in deploying wind power can be finessed to more precisely match our energy needs.I’m sure I don’t understand all the details, but I feel as if I understand more than I ever did before.

Whatever was wrong, it is right again. Thank you, mysterious gods of the internet.

I’m persuaded; but then, I was already persuaded.

My morning is disrupted. Something seems to be wrong @gocomics and I cannot get my daily dose of Nancy by Olivia Jaimes

My only experience with far infra-red heating is the lovely little Klarstein panel under my desk, which makes winter just about bearable. When (if?) the time comes to extend, I’m calling in Peter Molnar as consultant.

Hmmn. I wonder what’s in it for them?

Indeed. Currently editing my next episode, from @ECLLD recent meeting in Budapest, celebrating how the new EU reg on OHM is allowing farmers and food producers to be more sustainable and nutritious.

Hey @help. If I were to switch to a paid account (keeping my own domain) is there a way to import old posts from the RSS feed created by an export from Known?

@help If I were to move to a paid plan, is there a way to import posts from the RSS file exported from Known?

Feels stupidly good to be deleting ~5000 spam emails (since 9/21) and ~62,000 emails from Trash. I mean, they don’t cost me anything directly, but still good to clear out. Also deleted everything pre 1/1/2018; nobody needs more than five years of email archive, do they?

Maggie Appleton has a very persuasive article on the boredom that faces us from generative AI and some ideas to deal with it.I particularly liked:Easier said than done, but one of the best ways to prove you’re not a predictive language model is to demonstrate critical and sophisticated thinking.Which ought to go without saying, but of course doesn’t. And which ought also to include some sort of distinctive authorial voice.And:we can prove we’re real humans by showing up IRL with our real human bodiesBring it on.

New Years Eve at some point crossing the Atlantic. Time zones are hard.
