2026 Week 5
https://blog.lmorchard.com/2026/01/30/w05/
TL;DR: Miss Biscuits is 90% fluff, 3D printed ghosts instead of guns, snarfed down three Adrian Tchaikovsky books at hyperfocus speed, shipped feedspool-go v0.2.0 with over-engineered lazy loading, learned about GitHub Actions cross-repo triggers, got obsessed with a TR/ST song on repeat, and caught up on Classic Doctor Who featuring cyborg Loch Ness monsters.

Yesterday I wondered aloud why RSS readers look like email clients.
@brentsimmons replied. Turns out he borrowed that layout for NetNewsWire in 2002 — and twenty years later, he's asking why no one's tried something different.
That conversation became an essay. I built a visual version (with an ASCII fallback).

Weird that RSS readers look like email clients. Inbox on the left, message on the right, unread counts everywhere.
But email is people waiting on you. RSS is just... people talking, and you chose to listen. Nobody's waiting. There's no reply expected. It's a completely different relationship.
Why did we borrow the inbox metaphor for something that isn't mail?
I've written a little script for the @powRSS account to find posts from the Random section on the site.
The idea is to bring visibility to older blogs which may not have published recently.
This in turn means you can now follow powRSS in your #RSS reader for the occasional low frequency dip into #indieweb discovery.
