  • πŸ”— A Guide to Using RSS to Replace Social Media – Luke Smith

    Sep 26, 2021
    by James
    RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is the best way to keep tabs on things online. While social media sites have tried to replace it, it is still the best way to consoooome content, even on social media sites.
    I’ve been trying to do this lately. After trimming my actual YouTube subscriptions, I added the few channels I really care about to my RSS reader.

    I had been toying with doing the same for Twitter, glad to see it’s possible albeit with a proxy site πŸ™„.

    But one thing for sure, it’s a much calmer experience.

  • Response to Stimulus 3 + Turbo 7 = Hotwire 1.0

    Sep 25, 2021
    by James
    For so long, it felt like I could only tell half the story of how we make software for the web at Basecamp. Too many of the chapters about our front-end approach were missing key pages. Sure, we had some of it out there. Turbolinks, for example, hark back to 2012, when I was inspired by Chris Wanstrath's ideas in pjax, and took them fu...
    I’m using Hotwire for parts of Tanzawa and I’ve enjoyed it. I really should spend the time to fully flesh it out so it’s smooth as butter everywhere.

  • πŸ”— 20 Reasons To Quit Social Media

    Sep 23, 2021
    by James
    In reality, we hire social media to distract our minds from our unpleasant, average life. And, by faking photos, to convince others, including ourselves, that our life is amazing while internally we are in pain.

    * We hire social media to create a virtual representation of the life we want to live, but never actually live it.
    * We hire social media to observe the life we want, but never actually experience it.
    This comment right here is what got me to close my laptop and go out for a run. My reward (beyond energizing me for the day) was this great view of Mt. Fuji with the moon overhead. I naturally posted it to social media.
