Pluralistic: The web is bearable with RSS (07 Mar 2026) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow

Sun, 08 Mar 2026 18:27:37 +0000

It's almost impossible to overstate how superior RSS is to the median web page. Imagine if the newsletters you followed were rendered with black, clear type on a plain white background (rather than the sadistically infinitesimal, greyed-out type that designers favor thanks to the unkillable urban legend that black type on a white screen causes eye-strain). Imagine reading the web without popups, without ads, without nag screens. Imagine reading the web without interruptors or "keep reading" links.

Current | Terry Godier

Velocity is what makes the river work. Every source in Current has a half-life that you set: how long its articles stay visible before fading out.

Why I Stopped Following the News | Mert Bulan

Wed, 28 Jan 2026 18:47:29 +0000

If I have to pick my favourite German word, I would probably pick “neugierig” because it describes me very well. It means curious, but that is not the literal meaning. Like many German words, it comes from two parts: neu and gierig. Neu means new, and gierig means greedy. So the literal idea behind neugierig is being greedy for new things. That fits me well.

Custom Containerized Sandboxes for AI Agents | by Rafael Ben-Ari | Dec, 2025 | Medium

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 23:19:17 +0000

One of the first things I do every morning is to check the news. And almost always I dislike the news quite a bit. So I wanted to have a “newspaper” with topics that cover my interests, and that is also fun to read. This is how “Gradient Descent” was born: a nightly aggregation of (mostly) local-AI news, community summary, links and posts.

Why RSS matters

Thu, 11 Dec 2025 06:01:07 +0000

RSS has always worked quietly in the background. In a moment when the web is being reshaped by enclosure, consolidation, and algorithmic mediation, its reliability is exactly what we need. It offers a simple, durable way for publishers to keep control of their distribution and for readers to keep control of their attention, without permission, platform lock-in, or hidden agendas. If we treat RSS not as a relic of an earlier web but as the strategic infrastructure it already is, it can continue to anchor a more open, more resilient, and more humane internet for decades to come.

Remember to not leave all the work to the AI : Global Nerdy

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 00:48:44 +0000

I have nothing against using AI as a writing assistant. It’s fantastic for checking spelling, grammar, and flow, it can help you out of writer’s block, and it can do something that you could never do, no matter how smart or creative you are: it can come up with ideas you’d never come up with. So yes, use AI, but you have to do some of the work, and you have to double-check it before putting that work out in the world!
