That’s a bit of a disappointment. Daily Kos won’t play nicely with Instapaper.

We have had an extensive discussion today in irc #indieweb-dev and I think we are beginning to see what is going on. I will try and summarise here later

#testtag

But now here’s the thing, when I do this by hand directly in WithKnown, it allows me to post some lines of description.And a #testtagBut I ddo not seem to be able to do the same thing with micropub. Probably because I am doing it wrong.

Some of the people rediscovering independent publishing on their own domains are agonising over self-censorship, guilt and the like. I’m slowly continuing to bring old posts over into my main site. That goes for the ones that hurt a bit to read.The only ones I’m not bringing are link posts that include dead links. A few are just too topical to bother with. The others are coming over, albeit not very quickly, even if I have to go searching for archived pages to link to. 

Along the way, Salmon has this to say: the world’s billionaires – the richest 2,000 people on the planet – saw their wealth increase by a staggering $762 billion in just one year. That’s an average of $381 million apiece. If those billionaires had simply been content with staying at their 2016 wealth, and had given their one-year gains to the world’s poorest people instead, then extreme poverty would have been eradicated. Hell, they could have eradicated extreme poverty, at least in theory, by giving up just one seventh of their annual gains. Hang on a minute. Wouldn’t the billionnaires need to make that awesome sacrifice every year? Or does the fact the people would slide back into extreme poverty next year not matter? 

This may seem strange, but I really don’t mind it when my social streams fall off the bottom because I’ve been away. Generally, I will catch up with anything that I find interesting, and if I don’t, that’s ok too.

Words to live by – and not just for web developers. Your job is to make it easy for the people who use what you make, not for yourself.
