Blog posts
Here I have various blog posts. I created the blog on April 22, 2023, to provide a place for information longer than a mastodon post and perhaps with broader reach. I will be backfilling with posts about older content.
You can filter and search here, but you can also get the RSS feed at blog.xml. RSS is a format for distributing new content: it is most commonly used for blogs, but it is also a way things like new episodes of podcasts roll out. Here (Wired, soft paywall) is an accessible overview of RSS and how to read it.
