@SheilaDillon It could never be simple, not if you want to cover the externalities of both products in adequate detail.

@bonjouryannick You might want to look at https://indieweb.org/Micropub which has a few examples, libraries etc that you can modify or, depending on your system, adopt directly.

Thank YOU @nelsonhist for doing the work and being happy to talk about it. Today, Grain and Empire closes the trilogy, leaving a lot still unsaid. Oceans of Grain is a terrific read that sheds light on so many disparate topics, all connected by wheat.

I see Jason using what looks like the AT 875 short shotgun mic as his desktop mic, possibly for podcasting and conferencing, and wonder how that compares to a less directional mic like my Electrovoice R50.

@TimDee4 More to it than spring and autumn. Thought to be a coded guide to the long-term storage of grain, known to the Ancients and then forgotten until rediscovered in the late 18th century -- without which there would be no global wheat trade. https://www.eatthispodcast.com/grain-persephone/

@jblanca42 And finance. This week, @nelshist explains that wheat warehouses were the first banks, how the grain futures market emerged from the US Civil War and how Russia robbed the widows and orphans of France.

A bookmark with a fixed number of sticky tags on it is a brilliant idea. No more tags? Stop reading and write notes on the things you tagged.

@ECLLD Very happy to see my dreams come true. I don't understand why my reader failed to pick up the feed automatically, but I have now added it and will look forward to seeing updates as they happen.

“Republicans are now preparing a Fascist coup while Democrats wring their hands and dither.”

It is a worry, to be sure.
