#RussVought, a #Project2025 architect, is reportedly set to repeat as head of Office of Management and Budget after serving in the position for Trump's first term.

We recently unearthed private videos of Vought's plans for "traumatically" razing the civil service, siccing military on protestors, defunding environmental protections, and generally helping #Trump accumulate more executive power than any president before him.

Streamiverse is written in Kitten and you can follow the “htmx, the htmx WebSocket extension, and socket routes” tutorial to create a Kitten app that consumes the API:

https://kitten.small-web.org/tutorials/htmx-the-htmx-web-socket-extension-and-socket-routes/

To get started with Kitten, see:

(Could be a fun little thing to play with this weekend.)

Introducing Streamiverse… a simple Mastodon-compatible streaming API of curated posts from the fediverse.

https://streamiverse.small-web.org

Consume the public API curated/hosted by Small Technology Foundation (for non-commercial and educational use) or host your own.

Mastodon had a public streaming API but it was locked down this year. This gives you back that useful feature (for demos, teaching, etc.) plus you know exactly what you’re getting.

• Screenshot: two browser windows, side-by-side. On the left is the Streamiverse index page showing a number of curated posts. On the right is the Settings screen with areas to add to stream and a place where you can enter your fediverse account for removal requests. The Settings page also contains the curated tweets with the ability to remove them. (remote)

One side effect of this blog post is it made me realize I really like the “just put whatever is in your mind and hit publish” kind of writing and actually missed doing it.

The social media shakeout is happening, and I fear Mastodon isn't looking great…although that's from my narrow perspective on one dying instance.

@mindpersephone The CPU is a polished stone tablet covered with magical runes and other complex carvings. If you trap a lightning bolt and feed it to the dead stone, it will become alive to serve you. Anything you command it will do at demonic speed and precision, as long as you know how to say what you want in the strange language it obeys.

The web balances on a knife edge. It's kept upright by impassioned people arguing for security and privacy and pushing within these organizations to make it all a reality. But it also runs on real engineering hours, sunk into projects that those same folks have managed to carve out space for within what should be entirely self interested corporate bodies.

Yes there is some lopsidedness right now, but upsetting that balance within the current economic and political environment is a Very Bad Idea

"web-features" (the thing that powers Baseline) is an awesome open-source project that, with links to other data sources, has the potential of unlocking so many use cases. We're only scratching the surface.

I'm currently mapping web-features to MDN pages. Want to help complete the coverage? See this issue: https://github.com/web-platform-dx/web-features-explorer/issues/32

There's a good blog post from @april about cookie parsing: https://grayduck.mn/2024/11/21/handling-cookies-is-a-minefield/

And I guess it's time to dust off my broader, 2010 rant about the same: https://lcamtuf.blogspot.com/2010/10/http-cookies-or-how-not-to-design.html

Some things have improved, but cookies are still a bit of a design fail.
