Testing Wordland, about which Dave says more here.
This is my second blog, and my first WordPress one. It launched in 2007. My first blog is this one, which (courtesy of Dave) started in the last year of the prior millennium. I had hair then, and wore glasses.
Is this true? I want more sources.
Irony of wanting more sources: there is already too much information. Examples: this window has 30 tabs, in a browser with four windows, each with more tabs than I’ll bother to count. I also have four other open browsers. Trying to stay on top of all this stuff is like standing on a ball. So I save a lot of tabs: 10716 with OneTab. So far.
The Knicks are better than they look to this guy. Even if the Celtics and the Cavs are better overall. The playoffs will be fun. Between now and then, the Celtics City series looks like it will probably be good too. (Never mind what teams you hate. I’ve always hated the Lakers and the Yankees, but have no trouble watching documentaries on them. Villains—even ones that aren’t really—are always interesting.
All new comments to old blog posts are suspicious.
I just gave this post a category. It’s from my WordPress roster. Nice. Curious now about how to include images.
Will our agents increase our agency?
Stowe Boyd on economic uncertainty. About a year ago I had a dream that three things would happen, though I wasn’t sure in what order (or if they would at all, being a dream). One was that the Celtics would win the NBA championship. Another was that Trump would win the presidential election. And one was that the economy would crash. So far, so two.
Some numbers. The U.S. has 4% of the world’s population and,
—consumes ~17% of its energy, and around
—20% of its oil (most in the world)
—21% of its natural gas (also most)
—8% of its coal (declining but still)
—16% of its electricity
—12% of its water
—15% of its food
—30% of its consumer goods (also tops in the world)
—25% of its raw materials
—and produces 14% of the world’s carbon emissions, second only to China’s.
This is from ChatGPT, so redraw your own conclusions. My provisional one is that an adjustment is bound to happen.
Dave kindly notes that I’ve been an early user of his writing tools for the Web. I should add that I was an early wannabe user of Think Tank (after I met Dave and his brother at their booth at Comdex in Atlanta in 1984… but I didn’t have a computer to run it on) and MORE, which was the best writing tool of any kind that I have ever used. Such a killer app. Wish it had been at the top of the food chain. (But its ghost lives on in the tools Dave has been making since then.)
