One of the great advantages of blogging (or even micro-blogging) is that when I painfully resolve a problem for which online searching yielded no solution, and then I forget the solution, the next time I search I find the solution ("oh yeah, that idiot again!").

Writing a blog post that the meat of which just POURED out in a draft. It's gonna take a bit of research and editing, but the bones are definitely there.
It's gonna be a fun one.

The Impact of Technical #Blogging

I wish I could find myself more consistent with my blog to be honest.

The Case for Blogging in the Ruins
In 1751, Denis Diderot began publishing his Encyclopédie, a project that would eventually span 28 volumes and take more than two decades to complete. The French government banned it twice. The Catholic Church condemned it, Diderot's collaborators abandoned him, his publisher secretly censored entries behind his back, and he worked

I made a list of all the blog posts and other permanent-ish artifacts I could find for over/under
It's largely for my benefit (hence the "to read" section at the bottom) but other people might find it useful too

When people talk about the Enlightenment as if it were an intellectual garden party where everyone sipped wine and agreed about reason, they're missing the part where producing and distributing ideas was (in fact) dangerous and thankless work.
Today we have more information than any civilization in history.
But aside from Wikipedia, we've organized the sum total of our collective knowledge into formats optimized for making people angry at strangers in pursuit of private …

It's amazing. Take the long view.

LOL moment from #IETF124 pre-BOF was @awarm.space describing Leaflet as "macro blogging"
I just get like this picture of like carb loading, and like @schlage.town as my super intense coach. "GET OUT THERE AND MACROBLOG, PEOPLE!!!"

Love it when I start writing a brief post to blab out here, and it starts becoming a list of ideas, and I quickly realize a blog post needs to happen 🔥

Here’s my 35th “Long Links” outing, curation of long-form offerings, which assume that nobody has time to read all this stuff but one or two of the pieces might brighten your day. This one is mostly political but some of the politics are from France and China. Plus a way-cool analytical history of blogging and a section labeled “wonderful things”.

Ready for more blogging in 2026!

I've spent most of today -- while I really should have been working on other things -- building a little search engine for @yogthos' Cryogen blogging engine, which is what I use for my blog.
I can now generate an index very fast; the index I'm currently generating is too big, and doesn't have enough metadata, and consequently the search side can't return that metadata, but I'm very pleased with progress for one day.

"Eliezer Yudkowsky is confusing a very human obsession with death and a very modern fear of a techno-deity"

The guru of the AI apocalypse
After two decades influencing some of the world’s most powerful people through blogging and fanfiction, writing a mainstream (if not airport) book seems unnecessary. Eliezer Yudkowsky was already one

Having discovered that 2025 marked the 10 year anniversary of my return to the indie web, I've spent the last six months making small, incremental improvements in just about every part of my web life.
Felt like the right thing to do, on the final day of the year, to write something about these little side quests: #IndieWeb #HappyNewYear #Blogging

Also wrote a blog post with some of the art/doodles/bad photoshops I made for over/under, and a bit about long term asynchronous roleplaying in that game near the end

@kalvin@treble.tcp-ip.top My blog is not quite ready yet, but I love #PubliiCMS as a blogging platform: https://getpublii.com

I post a lot here and on Maker Forums Discourse, and have kind of not gotten around to blogging for a while. But today I had time to reflect on my first full year of #HamRadio — this new hobby has surprised me in a lot of (good) ways.

Why do hundreds and hundreds of websites all incorrectly, and weirdly using identical phrases, insist that the the term 'blog' is short for 'web log' (True), "which was originally a record of server requests" (False)?

Word origins: Why is it called a “blog?”
I’ve been blogging for over a year now, which is a big exciting accomplishment for me! And yet, it wasn’t until this week that I stopped and thought about how weird the word blog is. It…

Going into 2026 with only 7 potential blog post ideas sitting as drafts. Not bad. Might be a record 🤯
#blogs #blogging #writing

A boardgame session, a half-marathon, coding, blogging, and a donation to Come Back Alive (https://savelife.in.ua/en/).
Not bad for the last day of the year. I'll do my best for the next year to be as fruitful.
I wish you all a good New Year's Eve, and please pray for Ukraine 🙏 🇺🇦

📝How a 10’ coding session with copilot 🧑🏻‍💻 added tags to 10 years of blogging #hugo

Add tags automatically to this blog · Technical inconsistencies blog
When starting this blog, I didn’t think about adding tags. As time passed, I wondered about adding them, but back-filling them was a chore. But with LLMs, this can be done relatively quickly and easily: Pass the LLM some text, and it will happily tell you which tags you might use. And, while you’re at it, it can create the script to call the LLM on all the posts and the code to visualize tags (which were previously hidden).

We close out 2025 this week with another early pick, a fitting track from 90s rock act Semisonic.
Give it a listen and bring in the new year with us, as we run through why we feel this is the perfect track for the occasion.
Thanks again to all our readers for another fun year of music blogging, we'll be back in the new year to showcase more hand picked tracks from across the epic world of #rock

Semisonic - This Will Be My Year
One awesome, hand picked song from the world of rock and metal, showcased every week. Nothing more, nothing less! 🤘

Yet Another Pointless List, or Pointy, as the case may be.
