Spent most of the day working on timezones for non-American blogs. Still more to do, tomorrow. #
I was chatting with Scoble on Facebook at wrote this: There's this great line in Succession where the father's wife says to one of his kids "he built you a playground and you think it's the world" -- that's Silicon Valley. It's a tiny little place that thinks it's everything when in fact it's a bunch of factories filled with grunts, and due to the pandemic it's not even that anymore.#
Hopefully at some point President Biden and his administration will turn their full attention to preventing the collapse of America's political system.#

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
