Things on the internet can be forever, but you can’t assume someone else will keep them going, especially when it’s stuff like video, which costs real money to host. If you love something, try to get a local copy and store it on a hard drive you control.
Sage advice from Matt Birchler, though the title of the post suggests this is for young people, I would say this applies to all people, regardless of age.
I really wish when you subscribed to newspapers and magazines they gave you a private RSS URL to use with read-it-later apps. A couple of podcasts that I subscribe to do something similar and it’s great. Being able to read articles in a read-it-later app is so nice. Most publications do not prioritize great reading experiences.
This is the future of services and it will also change how companies build.
Somehow we have fleas again 🤬. This is the second time in two years. We don’t have animals in the house. They are such a pain to get rid of. Obviously some animal(s) are dropping them outside and they hitch a ride in on us and then just start multiplying.
Finally found some pads the kid would wear. I lost count of how many we tried, but good ole Smith FTW. Finally got a good session in. He’s definitely getting more comfortable. Just needs to practice practice practice.

What happened to Wirecutter? was a good read. Feels like it could have been longer tho.
Been going to bed so late lately, which means I’m not getting enough sleep. Gotta get back on track. I have no sleep issues, thankfully. I just love the quiet of the later evening hours. I like the early morning too, sometimes even more, but it’s just easier to stay up later.
