  • An interesting use of nntp/rss
    from Dan Dickinson

    nntprss has an option for treating RSS feeds as “historical” - thus saving posts if the related item is removed from the RSS feed. It also leaves the original post alone if an item has been edited. So how is this useful?

  • A great argument for keeping multiple email addresses

    PENELOPE FINNIE had to give up something precious recently: her work e-mail address.

    …

    Yet with the convenience comes risk. Although many people are aware that they may be sacrificing privacy by using workplace e-mail, they are sometimes indiscreet in what they write. And for those like Ms. Finnie who spend years in a single job, the e-mail address becomes part of their identity. Leaving a job and its e-mail address can cause practical and emotional upheaval.

...most of us learned about love the hard way. Even warnings are probably useless, for somehow, despite the severest warnings of parents and friends, hundreds, thousands of women have forgotten themselves at the last minute and succumbed to the lies, promises, flatteries, or mere attentions of lusting, lovely men, landing themselves in complicated predicaments from which some of them never recovered during their entire lives. And I am not speaking only of your teenaged Midwesterners in 1958; I'm speaking of women of every age in every city in every year. The notorious sexual revolution has saved no one from the pain and confusion of love. -- Alix Kates Shulman
