Lots to do yet but the new Kitten¹ settings section (that’s common to all Kitten apps / Small Web places) is coming along nicely. (With the general style/layout borrowed from Domain².)
(It’s currently a single page and I’m breaking it up into multiple ones because it’s time.)
Once I’m done with this I should really record a screencast of Kitten’s new backup and restore feature/data portability.

The COSTUMING tho.
Watch closely when you see it for the third or fourth time: Gurney Halleck’s boots are worn at the right angles for someone who always walks quietly. The details are absolutely outstanding and as a person who’s done a not-insubstantial amount of historical costuming creation and sewing, to not give this movie the Oscar next year for costume design would be just unforgivable.
We are super mad that no one is doing all this work that we're sure needs doing and we wish we could go back to yelling at the Linux kernel people for not doing it.

Decided I wanted to extract the transcripts from videos of talks I’ve given, and used ChatGPT to write Python code (I‘m not a Python programmer) to read the YouTube API (which I’ve not used before). First thing I found is that OAuth is needed so that Google knows who you are. Then found that I can only read the transcript for videos I personally posted. So now ChatGPT is helping me write code to scrape the web page that I can see the Transcript on. No way I could have done this on my own.

Sometimes when people do the right thing, it's "too little, too late"
When that comes after they hurt us, we often react from reasonable anger. Anger isn't wrong, and we shouldn't have to hand out cookies
What's missing is explaining that they're missing the other 5 parts of the anatomy of an apology. In particular, they haven't acknowledged the hurt, pain, and other impact they caused, nor done the work to fix past harm.

"(There's) Always Something There to Remind Me"
I first heard this song by the band Naked Eyes back in 1983. Classic 80s new wave pop.
In the early 90s I learned that this is a Burt Bacharach song, originally done by Dionne Warwick in 1963. But it was also covered by American singer Lou Johnson in mid-1964. It was a hit for him, reaching #49 on Billboard.
Then English pop singer Sandie Shaw covered it, reaching #1 in the UK in the same year.

Donald Trump’s latest position on abortion is, basically, “whatever.”
If antiabortion crusaders thought he was genuinely on their side, they should have been paying closer attention.
Earlier this year, he frequently boasted about having appointed three antiabortion Supreme Court justices who tipped the ideological balance on the court and overturned Roe v. Wade, which had been the law of the land for nearly half a century.
“I did it, and I’m proud to have done it,” Trump …
I have a question for those who know #rust. When I went to school I learned Assembly, ANSI C, Java, and Perl (oh... and Mathematica, but I'm trying to forget it). Then I learned VB (later .NET), C , and Python on my own. I've never been a full-time developer, but I will pick up an occasional pet project. Nearly everything I've done in the last 10 years has been in python.
Should I learn Rust? Are there new #programming concepts? Are there other reasons, as am #infosec professional, that make it worthwhile to run to an "Intro to Rust" class?
This is pretty rad.
PalmOS has a definite nostalgia for me. In the latter years (Trio/Cento era), it was extremely usable. Not sure I could daily drive it in 2024, but there were some fine application for the PalmOS.
Although if I dream a little bit: a similar project that does the WebOS experience faithful and I can run it atop PostmarkedOS. I *would* daily drive that today.

Whether you're broadly pro or anti AI, one thing that is important for all sides, is that we have a decent repository of information that is verifiable.
Ideally, written and checked by humans, but failing that a mix of humans and AI, where each checks the other recursively.
I don't think this can ever be done perfectly, but a trust network with strong identity management seems to be a good place to start.

Even the attention to a particular piece of info is really open to many meanings. Sometimes I look at citation counts to get a sense of what's widely circulated (still need to determine why); other times I want a good seed for a chaining search, to what's being done w/ a particular work or aspect of that work; or to track the injustice of it all when the wrong work (IMHO) gets traction. It is a piece of information open to many uses.
