Oliver Reichenstein (Mastodon, Hacker News): A couple of months ago, Google changed its API policy and revoked iA Writer’s access to Google Drive on Android. By freezing up Android’s main storage option, our app was frozen in carbonite. It still lived but we couldn’t move forward before resolving it. In order to allow our users to access their Google Drive on their phones we had to rewrite privacy statements, update …

“My own interpretation of this painting changes from day to day, hour to hour, and is based on nothing more than letting my mind wander whilst staring at the print on my wall. My thoughts vacillate. Sometimes I see an image that’s profoundly unknowable. A painting from tens of thousands of years ago surely lies beyond some horizon of intelligibility. Such painting, separated from the world that gave rise to …

Eastport is the epitome of ‘Downeast Maine’. Why Downeast, you ask? In the days of old, ‘downeast’ …

Did you know that Moleskine notebooks have their own ISBN? I used to run a bookshop in a tweeting vending machine called Machine Supply. It was the smallest member of the Booksellers Association (I had a sticker on the glass and everything) and I partnered with a great book wholesaler. So the book business relies on wholesalers. They buy the books from the publishers and bookshops buy the books from …

Despite better judgement I decided to code a basic HTML parser. Not the full HTML spec but enough to create a tree of nodes and attributes. I’ve already written a streamable XML parser that has been working for my podcast web app.Parsing (most) HTML isn’t as complicated as it sounds. Look for a less-than sign < and see if a valid tag like <div> follows. If that node is a …
