Note to future self: to clean up single-use tags in Pinboard, go to “manage” under tags and then “used once”.

And good luck with keeping up.

I’m glad you found something that works for you. I tried a similar thing myself (3 podcasts a week) for a while, and used Huffduffer to make the feed, but came across too many walled gardens to keep bothering.

“Amazingly, the link still works” Two amazing things1) In a piece looking back over 1000 of his linkblog posts, Charles Arthur finds it remarkable that a link from 2010 still works.2) The piece seems to be on Medium and nowhere else.I reckon the two observatiuons are linked (haha). Which makes me wonder whether to even share this link. Will it still work in 2028? Or would Charles be better of owning his stuff somewhere else?#indieweb

That takes me back.

Ah, you try and tell the kids about reveal codes.

So correct. I fear we may lose the meaning of podcast, just as we lost the meaning of blog post. 

@miiiike_sm Another great breeding story to add to my collection; thanks. Not unlike the Red Fife story.

Great headlines of our times.

I’m still getting spam through public comments. I divert the notifications to a special mailbox and keep on top of them, deleting anything I find, and, touch wood, it may be declining.

Interesting piece from Tom Philpott at Mother Jones, pointing out that ALL the big brewers use additional sources of food for their yeasts. Some use corn, some use rice. A pox on all of them.
