XFN – XHTML Friends Network (2003)

Blogs used to be different

Blogs used to be very different. 06 Sep, 2025 I saw someone earlier post about how intrusive it felt to read a personal blog post. They made a point that folks like them who have grown up on short form microblogging like Twitter and Tumblr have a big leap to make when reading longer form blogposts. Not sure how many folks have that same issue but from the blogs I've read in the last decade, there has been a huge shift in content. Ten years ago if you were blogging on Tumblr or Wordpress you w

OnePlus and Hasselblad are ending their five-year partnership

OnePlus and Hasselblad are ending their five-year partnership , according to an official blog post. The smartphone maker has started developing its own camera system, which it has dubbed the DetailMax Engine. There was no reason given for the split, though OnePlus heaped praise on Hasselblad in that blog post. It lauded the camera maker's "obsession with precision and detail" and opined about "nights in the lab chasing the perfect balance of light and shadow." The company also said that "Hassel

This blog is running on a recycled Google Pixel 5 (2024)

This blog is running on a recycled Google Pixel 5 If you glance over this blog, you will see that I am an avid Android fan. After setting up numerous Linux proot desktops on phones, I wanted to see if I use a phone as a server and run my blog from an Android phone. Since you are reading this, I was successful. I was inspired my a few Mastodon posts earlier this week to give it a go. First, I stumbled on a post from @kaimac who is running a site from an ESP32 microcontroller. In the comments of

Sometimes Software Is Done, or Why Hugo Why

I didn’t sit down this morning planning to write a grouchy blog post about Hugo. When I first used Hugo I loved it. It was fast. It was simple. It just worked, as much as any software does, and it solved a real problem. It was done. But people kept working on it. I’m sure that it has been improved in countless ways. But along the way it has gotten bigger and more complicated, and has broken backwards compatibility repeatedly. I am only inspired to write a blog post every few months. It take

Show HN: I Built a XSLT Blog Framework

TLDR I created a blog publishing framework built on XSLT. You can see it at https://xsltblogdemo.vgr.land/ and get the source here https://github.com/vgr-land/vgr-xslt-blog-framework Introduction Why build my own web publishing framework? It doesn't make any sense to do so. There are enough web frameworks out there to last everyone the rest of time. I wrote this for me. Once I learned the simple flow of XSLT driven site development I realized I was able to get what I want with little effort a

OpenAI warns against SPVs and other ‘unauthorized’ investments

In Brief In a new blog post, OpenAI warns against “unauthorized opportunities to gain exposure to OpenAI through a variety of means,” including special purpose vehicles, known as SPVs. “We urge you to be careful if you are contacted by a firm that purports to have access to OpenAI, including through the sale of an SPV interest with exposure to OpenAI equity,” the company writes. The blog post acknowledges that “not every offer of OpenAI equity […] is problematic” but says firms may be “attempt

Why and how to write things on the Internet (2022)

December 2022 Recently I noticed that most existing “why you should write a blog” articles (e.g.) have at least one of two shortcomings, according to me: They mostly focus on counterarguments to not starting a blog, rather than positive arguments in favor of starting one—as if people’s natural state is to produce amazing blogs and the only thing holding them back is silly misconceptions. This might be true for extreme outliers like Scott Alexander, but personally, my natural state is to play l

This has been corrected in the text below. Original article, July 22, 2025: Creating emulation-focused content online is risky bus

Here’s why that embattled retro gaming YouTuber might not be so innocent

TL;DR Embattled retro gaming YouTuber Once Were Nerd left out key incriminating details in his initial video. Earlier videos uploaded to the channel link to blog posts sharing ROM and BIOS downloads. He may have also sold consoles, with ROMs, on the secondhand market via Facebook. Creating emulation-focused content online is risky business, since the entire industry is filled with legal gray areas. Italian YouTuber Once Were Nerd found this out the hard way, with authorities seizing dozens of

Graphical Linear Algebra

Applications are open for the ACT Applied Category Theory Research School 2018! And because arithmetic science and geometric science are connected, and support one another, the full knowledge of numbers cannot be presented without encountering some geometry, or without seeing that operating in this way on numbers is close to geometry; the method is full of many proofs and demonstrations that are made with geometric figures.

Philips Hue bulbs will be even more expensive in July. And it may not end there.

Philips is upping the prices of its popular and already-expensive Hue series of smart lighting products starting July 1. The company is blaming tariffs for the changes and has suggested that prices could go up even higher after the initial bump in July. Philips started informing its customers via an email marketing message earlier this month that prices would go up and urged people to buy Hue lighting sooner rather than later. In a statement to the Hueblog website, Philips’ parent company, Sig

Anthropic Abruptly Shuts Down Blog Run by Its AI, Won't Say Why

Anthropic wanted to show off its Claude chatbot's writing skills by having it pen a blog on the plain old internet — but just after its launch, the company kiboshed the entire thing. As TechCrunch reports, the "Claude Explains" project was only live for a few weeks before Anthropic decided to pull the plug, erasing all of its purportedly human-edited posts — which seem mostly to have been about coding — without any explanation. Revealed by TechCrunch earlier in June, Claude's blog was, as an A
