When I wrote HTML for People, I envisioned non-tech people learning it because knowing HTML is a generally useful skill in information work.

But AI kinda ruins that. Fewer non-tech people want to learn HTML.

But it seems to have found a niche audience among people who still want to learn HTML despite having access to AI. That makes me feel better about it.

I’m glad I wrote it when I did because I’m not sure I could have stayed motivated to write it in 2026 with the proliferation of AI options—whether for writing HTML or for learning it.

A routine reminder that it's always a good idea to boycott #Substack.

We have long known that it platforms and profits from Nazi publications. And now: #manosphere influencers with multiple accusations of serious crimes... so much so that there is a dedicated Wikipedia page about them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_affairs_of_the_Tate_brothers

No problem for #Substack though! They happily take a 10% cut from all paid subscriptions.

There are many great alternatives to SS: Ghost, Buttondown, beehiiv, Patreon... no more excuses

Okay, whoever authored this deserves a raise

Elixir!
It's been in the air for a while: we're thinking about releasing the /e/OS browser to PC plateforms.
/e/OS browser is basically a degoogled version of Chromium, with privacy patches from ungoogled Chromium, Bromite and Cromite & specific settings. it's fast, efficient with no BS.
So here is "Elixir" aka /e/OS Browser for PC, here with first test builds for Linux and MacOS.
Not perfect yet, but we'd like to undertand if that can be useful for some

Canadian politicians need to make a choice: either they support Elon Musk, or their constituents. It can’t be both.
