Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 06-12-26

I have an assignment I need to finish today. But I will not let that stop me from capping off the work-week with one more edition of Pook-Emu Bee links. Pook-Emu Bee will be off tomorrow for Newsletter Day. 1. How Mamdani Should Reform New York City’s Elections (John Ketcham and Jack Santucci for City Journal. June 10, 2026.) Never go full "think tank." Take a walk. Think about what you are writing. 2. Bluesky is getting Reddit-inspired communities built for topic-focused discussions […]

Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 06-01-26

Today is June 1. It is also Monday. With that, I present our first-ever collection of June Pook-Emu Bee links after a brief photography interlude. 1. Wikipedia editors plot strike and banner sabotage after Wikimedia layoffs (Carly Page for The Register. May 30, 2026.) HT to and quote from Ambient Irony: "Wikipedia editors are threatening a global strike where they'll stop airbrushing history." I chuckled. 2. Mamdani wants to remove former Mayor Ed Koch’s name from iconic NYC bridge — […]

Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 05-22-26

I was too busy yesterday to put together my daily Pook-Emu Bee links. I am busy today as well, but not too busy to take a link break. Article Links 1. Six search engines worth trying now that Google isn’t really Google anymore (Amanda Siberlin for TechCrunch. May 21, 2026.) This is a fair list but the article misses some nuance about the sources used by Startpage and Ecosia. I would add Mojeek to the selection. 2. Prosecutor charged for allegedly emailing self sealed Jack Smith Trump […]

Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 05-12-26

I have another busy day ahead of me, but we cannot forsake our daily Pook-Emu Bee links. 1. Syncthing 2.1 adds group organization and proxy support options (Fla for AlternativeTo. May 12, 2026.) I approve of having "the ability to group devices and folders in the GUI using a new group attribute." 2. Airbnb enlists Al Sharpton in fight against Mamdani’s short-term rental crackdown in NYC: report (Ariel Zilber for the New York Post. May 11, 2026.) I'd ordinarily make a "it's a pity they […]
