This is pretty much how everything I build happens...
1. Notice friction: post sidebar feels cluttered
2. Experiment: carousel, collapsible tags, moved metadata
3. Ship it to my 12 readers

We decided to shut down Plumb this week (and I'm ending 5 years at Murmur Labs).

We built something special, but it was time to fold up the tent.

I'll share more reflections later but for now, my focus is on helping this amazing team find their next home, either together or on their own. πŸ’œ

I've been spending time on the bird app and this whole time I probably should've been here.

Kindlets & Blips, first appearance not in my @supernote Nomad or doodled on paper.

This is my first piece of art on canvas ever!

Lately, these creatures have been showing up β€” soft-bodied, half-formed, somewhere between emotion and memory.

I’ve started calling them Kindlets.

They’re the small, tender fragments of self: a forgotten wish, a moment of shame, something I never had words for.

Telling AI β€œdon’t show a pink elephant” almost guarantees it will.

Negation doesn’t workβ€”because models focus on what’s named.

I like it! I don't think I would use the Manta just because it's so big. I don't think the Nomad is for everyone but it's definitely for anyone who likes an A6 notebook!

Saw a guy wearing a Sleep Token shirt at the grocery store, so I asked him what he thought about "Even in Arcadia".

We talked for 20 minutes and it was just really a highlight.

I started with a standard bullet journal experience and just made adjustments every week based on what I noticed.

I've found it hard to find someone who's sharing good workflows for Supernote, but following physical journal workflows was a useful start.

Been finding a lot of value in getting some musings out of my mind and onto paper.

Cloudflare incident on February 6, 2025 On Thursday, February 6, 2025, we experienced an outage with our object storage service (R2) and products that rely on it. Here's what happened and what we're doing to fix this going forward.

Someone in the @resilienceinsoftware.org Slack just asked a really savvy question about this Cloudflare incident report: blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-i.... Their question was: β€œIs it β€˜human error’ if the system allows it?”
