EmDash Feedback
So, two other Matts at Cloudflare announced EmDash — the spiritual successor to WordPress that solves plugin security. (Is it nominative determinism or a simulation glitch that everyone trying to terraform the web has some variation of "Matthew" in their name? I was in a call set up by Matthew Prince, talking to Matt Taylor and Matt Kane, with my right hand there, …
Taxonomist
I'm really excited to introduce a project I worked on with various AI agents the other night, which I think represents a new way we might build things in the future. First, the problem: My WordPress site has 5,600+ posts going back decades, and I had some categories that were old and I didn't really use anymore, and I wasn't happy with the structure.
JAŸ-Z Returns
Since he spoke to Dean Baquet in 2017, JAŸ-Z hasn't done an interview. Hov's back! He sat down with GQ, and it's a lovely listen and read. We played enough defense, 2026 is all about offense. Your morality defines who you are, not what you’ve attained.
Community Antibodies
First, I want to say how great the jazz scene is in New York. I caught a little Latin at my go-to Guantamera last night, but the band seemed to be phoning it in a bit, so I walked over to Dizzy's and heard an amazing big band performance by the Diva all-women Jass Orchestra, they had Clint Holmes…
Stockfish
Nobody is arguing that Stockfish is conscious, but Stockfish would kick Claude’s ass at chess. Kevin Lincoln in AI Perfected Chess. Humans Made It Unpredictable Again.
Ari & X
I'm in NYC for the Stephan Wolfram dev/ai/nyc conversation tomorrow at the Automattic Noho space. While walking back from the Apple Store in Soho where I had picked up a new Studio Display XDR to try out, ran into one of my favorite YouTube accounts to follow right now, Ari at Home! I ran into him around 32 minutes into this Twitch stream…
Beautiful Hack
It's bad, but it's so good. As you read this deep dive into the LiteLLM backdoor hack, or this one, it's really just quite impressive. The use of ICP canisters, wow. Just as an engineer, I'd love to meet the minds behind this code.
If you host your WordPress on WordPress.com your AI agent can now manage your entire site, including updating posts or pages, making drafts, pretty much all the things you normally do with WordPress. Hook this up to your OpenClaw, Hermes, ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, whatever and have fun!
Long-time WordPresser Miriam Schwab just rebuilt her WordPress site with Claude Code and it looks amazing. Go check it out, this is what is possible now with proper prompting. I’d love to see a WordCamp keynote from Miriam on her process in this. (And she’s doing this while missiles are flying overhead. Wow.)
