Study: Pirated Web Video Peaks 12-18 Hours After Broadcast
Whoa. This must have taken some major investigatory work. Real gumshoe-type investigating. It appears as though TV shows, merely 12 to 18 hours after broadcasting on network television, are up, online, and ready to watch via "video sharing sites". I am not sure how they did their research, but they could have just asked me.…

The first rebuilding blocks
Korczak Ziolkowski wakes up early on a bitter cold winter’s morning – the same way he has for several decades – after breakfasting and a few mugs of the hottest coffee his palette can stand, he shoulders his tool belt and trods his way in knee-high snow to the eastern wall of the Crazy Horse…

My less than typical day
In January 2021 I posted my typical day which resulted in some fun people following suit on their own blogs. Lately, my typical day is less than typical. I’ve been on a tear for about 12 months with side projects. This means that my day is jammed. But here is a glimpse… I accomplish an…

Making Tuff improvements
My approach to building Tuff, my static site generator that I began working on last November, was to jump in as quickly as possible by publishing my personal website publicly very early in the development process. Doing so forced me to make rapid improvements and to focus on the most important features. By spending 5am…

Revisiting Simon Collison’s Farewell to Twitter

Simon claims that “others have articulated the situation better”, however, last night I realized…

Building Tuff – A static site generator just for me
Just about a month ago, for some unknown and undoubtedly a sleep deprived reason, I began building my own static site generator (SSG). And I did it entirely wrong. This is that story.

Enjoying a martini and Leon Bridge’s Tiny Desk concert There aren’t enough links in the world to describe the amount of information I’ve been ingesting lately.

Matthias Ott on publishing
Matthias Ott: Longtime readers will recall Stop worrying, hit publish. Ott’s post is a great example of the point he is trying to make. In the post he is simply relaying a story he heard on a podcast. Of what value could that be? By sharing how that story moved him, he moved several others.…
