I've been subscribing to Craig Mod for a couple of weeks, but missed this, so thanks. One tiny quibble. The footnotes in the quote go to Craig's site, which means that when I'm done reading them, I have no easy way to get back to you. I know, pretty minor. But still.

Note to future self: to clean up single-use tags in Pinboard, go to “manage” under tags and then “used once”.

And good luck with keeping up.

I'm glad you found something that works for you. I tried a similar thing myself (3 podcasts a week) for a while, and used Huffduffer to make the feed, but came across too many walled gardens to keep bothering.

I'm still getting spam through public comments. I divert the notifications to a special mailbox and keep on top of them, deleting anything I find, and, touch wood, it may be declining.

I'm instantly adding the -day-of-week code outlined here into my one-line-per-day journal of sorts.

Intersecting milk cartons is indeed cool, as Chris noted. Equally cool, maybe more so, is the Miuri fold, which I learned about in the Christmas Economist. https://www.economist.com/christmas-specials/2018/12/18/origami-spreads-its-wings

Dear reporters seeking to impress me,

“Exponentially” does not mean “very large”.

Yours etc.

Chris, I don't know what got you into all this strong names stuff, but I want to take the opportunity to point to my own pet peeve and a fine band, together at https://www.jeremycherfas.net/blog/eagles-point-the-way
