Weird luggage on my KEF flight: overly decorative trophy in hand luggage, two tatty cardboard boxes held together with tape in hold luggage. Apparently this is a thing now. #travel

Terrible copy in KEF:

Duty free shopping is Iceland at it’s purest? Seriously? May as well jump back on the plane without leaving the airport then.

Apparently the experience of buying aforementioned duty free goods is so bad that signs are required to reassure you that the goods are worth it.

Packing for return to Reykjavik tomorrow I realise I’ve doubled my sock count. I believe that constitutes a good trip.

Posting a note from my Raspberry Pi.

Setting up my Raspberry Pi. Composite output didn’t work so bought a HDMI cable and now the process seems pretty seamless.

A hang drum, played by Jovian Salak:

#TIL Shakespearian Star Wars is a thing, and what a thing it is: randomhouse.com/book/226524/william-shakespeares-star-wars-by-ian-doescher

What’s the best way of exchanging realtime data between applications on the same machine? Specifically, I want one application to be able to publish and many subscribe.

Want to scare a silo? Make a browser extension.

Then, maybe get banned for your trouble :/

.Jeremy Keith @shanehudson @indiewebcamp et al: php-mf2 is now dependencyless, go forth and build stuff with #microformats! Thanks to Aaron Parecki for writing the URL resolution code.

From now on I am framing all web standards-type discussions with the question “what is it reasonable to demand that authors do”

For example, it’s not reasonable to demand authors publish content in more than one format. It’s not reasonable to demand that authors learn how RDF works. It is reasonable to require authors to publish HTML. It is reasonable to require authors to add some simple microformats like rel-author, h-entry or h-card.

#TIL my old english teacher has set up some bizarre kind of alternate currency system where he trades old chocolate for semicolons

Ordered a bunch of #raspberrypi stuff — let’s create the future of musical instruments and personal devices.

Really liking the way Jeremy Keith adds a webmention sending form to his journal entries — makes it super easy for people to send webmentions if they haven’t automated it yet. #indieweb

Wow, I think I just got my first recruiter spam. They asked me to check out their website but gave no link. This is a tech industry rite of passage, right?

@benwerd you mean like this…?
