For working on the RSS feed I need an item without a title. This is that item.
#
Just for fun let's add another item.
#
Idea for a new cable news show
#
- It's called Occam's Report.#
- It's not journalism, instead it's what's obvious.#
- Today the discussion would assume that Trump fired Comey because he had found enough dirt on Trump to put him in an orange prison jump suit. Arrest imminent. #
- This is obvious. Trump is obstructing an investigation that had him nailed. #
Could it be old school w/o header graphics?
#
- I saved all the header graphics from Ye Olde Scripting Nudes.#
- I thought they might come in handy. ;-)#
- I need another test post to check out if my feed is publishing in a way that River5 can read it. This is that post. Hahah. #
- Here's an item with three subs:#
- Here's a list of three states:#
- California#
- Sacramento#
- San Diego#
- Yreka#
- Idaho#
- Vermont#
- And in closing let me thank all the little people. Without you none of this would be possible. #
I am now subscribing to the RSS feed in my river
#
- Lets see if this mofo shows up there and if it does, how it looks.#
- It should indent, but not in any fancy way, just using HTML ordered lists.#
- For example this item has three subs#
- They should appear indented in your RSS tool of choice.#
- Here's the actual feed. #
- add popup menu to each item#
- need more than one command, so far all I have is permalink. there must be other things you need to do to an object. #
- done#
- facebook and twitter metadata added to the template, processed by cms#
- add header to template#
- Make daverss npm package and use it from Old School.#
- RSS feed#
- It's in, now we have to debug it, and define permalinks, and whatever else we can. And also produce the daverss package. This is definitely one that will benefit from that treatment. #
- Must get it started soon. Without an RSS feed this isn't much of a blog.#
- monthly archive page#
- tuned up the messages on the console#
- when the /build message comes in, don't return until it's all built#
- I did a build of the Electirc Outliner app, so I'm running it from the Mac desktop as I edit this. #
Must watch new Olberman video. Follow the money! ;-)

Here's an idea. Add a popup menu to each post. Use a down-pointing wedge as its icon. Included in the menu is a permalink option. Not sure what else...
#
When Trump failed to fire Flynn it was because being compromised by Russian blackmail was nothing new in this White House. They all are.
#
Idea for Facebook. We can emote over a post or a comment, how about thanking someone? After that, forgiveness.
#
We now have a
home page for the Old School blog.
#
I love WebSockets part #207
#
- I just hooked up OldSchool to the storage server through WebSockets. So now I get notified when the JSON file updates.#
- It waits until the socket has been quiet for 5 seconds before doing the build. Don't want to wear out the CMS. :wink:#
- So I'm typing into EO, and the blog doesn't rebuild until I stop typing for five seconds.#
- Control and data fly around the network, and the code is very simple.#
OldSchool becomes realtime
#
- I think it's time for OldSchool to check the feed once a minute for updates and rebuild the home page and the day archive page when there's been a change. Better: Hook up to the websocket and wait until there's been five seconds of silence on the line.#
- Comey's testimony was "inaccurate" according to ProPublica. Not on some little thing, but on the events that caused him to throw the election to Trump. Is he really the best person to run the FBI? It seems to me his resignation is long overdue. If not charges. #
Rules for Standards-makers
#
- It's coming along. Thinking about who to ask to review also. #
- Also, have it mirrored on GitHub? That would be relatively easy to do. That way people could see changes over time, if any.#
- Update: It's now mirrored to GitHub.#
I love it when nations promote themselves as a good place for honorable technologists. Which nation wants to be home to the open web?

My friend @jayrosen_nyu calls it the
View From Nowhere. The reality that news pretends doesn't exist. Today the reality is overwhelming, because the envelope that contains the news, the companies that own journalism, are such a huge part of the story, every story. Media has become much more pervasive in the last 20 years. That's why news has drifted further into Nowhere, and it's become more of a fantasy.

Dear US friends, if you ever shake your head and wonder what's become of our country, the answer is nothing.

If news is going to work it's going to have to bite the hands that feed it. It's hard to imagine that happening.
#
- Its only purpose is to be here so it can be rendered in the demo so I can see what a consecutive pair of titled items looks like.#
Old School is a node app
#
- It reads the JSON file for this outline, and processes it into pages of a blog.#
- Each page is a day. #
- Permalinks on each item.#
- Items can be single headlines with no subs.#
- It appears in the feed as a item with no title.#
- Or a headline with subs. #
- The headline is the title of the item in the feed. #
- For now the pages are stored at /scripting.com/reboot/test/dave/.#
- Calendar structured folder. #
