lovelyangelI’ve got a few links I should clear from my browser.
Endgame for the Open Web by Anil Dash. Tangentially related: I quit. The clankers won by David Bushell.
The World Wide Web is a mess, filled with AI slop – and getting locked down behind walled gardens. I’m grateful for Dreamwidth being a safe haven (for now). Dreamwidth is the best of what’s left of the old open web.
Sort of related to the above links – last time I linked to Kagi Small Web. This time it’s Blogosphere. We could do more to find interesting blogs; they are out there!
For tech geeks (I used to be a programmer): Claude Code's Entire Source Code Got Leaked via a Sourcemap in npm, Let's Talk About it by Kuber Mehta.
There’s a bunch of interesting stuff here – and I’m happy to see some of the developers are having fun. They’re doing some things that I would have done. I had some fun Easter eggs in the code I wrote.
Artemis II Is Not Safe to Fly by Maciej Ceglowski.
This is pretty scary. Reminds me of The Slide That Killed Seven People. (I’ve used that slide when teaching people how to (and how not to) use PowerPoint.)
A lighter side of space... maybe you’d like your own Mars Perseverance Rover (working replica kit)? (Yanko Design always features awesome stuff – like this Tiny House with the Bedroom on the Ground Floor.)
After 11 Years, Naruto’s True Canon Ending(s) Have Aged Like Fine-Wine by Jason Hon at ScreenRant (WARNING: SPOILERS FOR THE END OF NARUTO). Related article from 2024: Naruto Shippuden Ending Explained; How the Beloved Anime Changes the Manga, also by Jason Hon. (WARNING: SPOILERS FOR THE END OF NARUTO)
The articles reminded me how much I loved the ending of Naruto – and I was motivated to rewatch the final arc, starting with Naruto Shippuden Episode 494 – Hidden Leaf Story, The Perfect Day for a Wedding, Part 1: Naruto’s Wedding. With the start of the new Spring anime season, this is a terrible time to watch more episodes in already full days – so I’m going to watch just one episode a night.
Speaking of anime, Random Curiosity has its Spring 2026 Preview posted. As usual, it’s full of good information.
