Weekly Note #4 | 7th June, 2026

Too much claude?

The planet doesn’t negotiate. It sends signals: rising seas, wildfires, heatwaves.

The EU responds with commitments like:

🔸Water Resilience Strategy
🔹Chemical Regulation
🔸EU Climate Law (net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050)

RSS 2.0 Specification (Current)

TIL you can't add a global "author" field to an RSS feed. Instead, you attach author information to individual <item>s in the feed. Seems wasteful for single-author blogs?

The spec does allow for "managingEditor" and "webMaster" fields, but those don't really represent authors of the text.

A CBSE student raised a question about his misplaced answer sheets. Instead of empathy or a call for accountability, he got called anti-national. This is about the machinery that turns complaints into betrayal, and reminds us that hate does not stay contained; it will come to your home too.
