Had some fun with the progress bar of my PineTime watch face and animated it. Looks lovely, if I may say so myself.

ugh, sorry Brad, "AI is inevitable" takes are the most tiring to read 🥱

Laundry actually has three stages:

Just a neutral territory where clothes go to think about what they've done.

Ig Nobels to move awards to Europe due to concern over US travel visas
https://www.theguardian.com/science/2026/mar/09/ig-nobel-prize-europe

> The annual Ig Nobels, a satirical award for scientific achievement, are shifting for the first time from the US to Europe due to concerns about attendees getting visas, organizers announced on Monday.

That story again: even parody Nobel committee recognizes how dangerous it is to travel to the USA these days. If your conference doesn't, your conference is less serious than parody Nobels. 🤡

Magnify dysfunction through automation and all you get is more dysfunction.

am i holding it wrong, or are the SvelteKit types not generating correctly? Zed editor bug?

I changed the return from `success` to `action`, it logs correctly, but the types are wrong. I deleted .svelte-kit and restarted everything - no luck :(

“C’mon, just try it. The first one is free.”

I guess kudos for being up front that it’s a time-boxed thing, rather than other “free for FOSS devs” things that are initially presented as long-term, but ultimately get rug pulled.

@fromjason astute as always.

but let me ask you this.

who would listen to it if Jason made this progressive context technology podcast?

I'm hyping myself up to start a podcast but I don't think I have it in me. Podcasting is a young person's spot. I'm 44. That's like 113 in podcast years.

But boy would I love a tech podcast from someone who doesn't blatantly ignore the politics of it all, and is still funny and entertaining. I think I'm not the only one.

There's appetite for this I think.

A podcast about tech world happenings from someone who isn't a centrist dude who's been in it so long he's basically just a proxy for big tech, would be REVOLUTIONARY

I'v been listening to these guys for fifteen years, and there was a time I thought they were super cool. But I can't anymore man.

The only guy I still listen to is Marques Brownlee because he still has interesting analyses. But I just know if he ever took a political stance, it'll break my heart.

We need progressive analysis

I'm super hyped to announce that Bluesky Socal PBC has given me a grant to work on the Federated Credential Management (or FedCM) standards to make them really work for all decentralized web applications.

This is why I stepped up to be an Invited Expert with the W3C FedID Working Group earlier in the year. The missing part at that time was "how do I fund this work?" so I'm super happy that Bluesky Social PBC really came through with a grant to fund this work.

A really interesting thing that Bluesky Social PBC did here was they could have said "just make this work for AT Protocol" but instead they said "make this work for the entire decentralized web", and the contract explicitly states I should be working with the IndieAuth, Solid and other communities interested in federated and decentralized identity to make this happen.
