ah, yes, it would do that. Thanks for the bug report.

and... fixed.

An open index of the web is an interesting idea that I've heard come up a few times now. Putting ever page into a one of 200 categories would be a pretty interesting undertaking. You'd probs need to fund it by "grants" or something from AI companies though...

One thing I feel is getting clear for me is that we often think about this problem from a "how to solve it to make it stay open" POV, but what the user ex and thus the product you are making is unclear. If you made this index, the product would be the data and so you'd be push to selling there. What is the product an end user like ourselves would pay for that helps? RSS feed readers seem to be the genearl suggestion so far of what we have today.

There are some interesting players taking another attempt at helping people explore the web by being aggregators - kagi.com for example. And I hope they make cool things. At the same time, I feel like we've walked that path a few times now and it hasn't made too different of an outcome. I wonder if there are laws in averages that mean it will become the same thing no matter intent. Even if that is wrong, I do worry we are stuck trying to make a faster horse.

Care to share the examples?

Thinking about why I've tended to avoid RSS, there is a consumption vs exploration divide in my mind that I feel RSS readers lean the wrong way on. That is probs an assumption I should challenge in my own thinking.

I'm not really convinced its gone. Its small. It was small 20+ years ago too though. I think the problem now is its hard to find the web where before that was all that was.

How do you find new RSS feeds today? RSS readers is something I've never really loved. But I also haven't tried them in a while. I should probs go look at some RSS feed readers to try

I spent sometime the last few days trying to use Recraft.AI to create a diverse set of characters that feel consistent to pretty good effect I think.

applied a demo page fix, sadly it will kill your ability to make sweet music.

I just punched in a bunch of random text in over its self a few times to see what this is like. It is either a new form of music or torture.

I guess I can make it so each call to an instance of morse adds to a queue and that when one bit of text is played it goes on to the next. This seems better for a singleton though and as of right now, this isn't a singleton... hmmm.

Thanks!

Thanks for this! Do you have any recommendations for further reading?

seems stackoverflow though this question was too fowl for them and asked me to push it over to codereview -> http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/28015/how-does...

If Torbjörn Söderstedt would like to explain how chicken.js works - there is now an open stackoverflow question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17414435/how-does-chicken...

Been using preamp for a few days now and I'd discovered a handful of new bands. Great tool.

Recently I had to turn a bunch of notes I'd taken in markdown into a presentation. So I threw together a nodejs parser that transformed the markdown into a single file deck.js app. Figured some others might find it interesting/useful.
