Oops, I started a new project: Skyreader, an RSS reader on the AT Protocol. Share cool articles like it's 2010 and Google Reader would never die. skyreader.app disnetdev.com/blog/2026-01-2…

Flint now has live markdown preview and much improved search! disnetdev.com/blog/2026-01-1…

You can try it out right now in your browser: app.flintnote.com

Big updates for Flint, my note-taking project. Spent the holidays reworking just about all of it. New UI. New backend. Now uses Automerge for a local-first foundation.

Blogged about my recent work on Flint. So much good stuff: review mode, EPUB/PDF/Web viewer, decks, open source, and more! disnetdev.com/blog/2025-12-0…

Also, Flint is now in open beta! Try it out if note-taking sounds interesting: flintnote.com

Blogged about how I'm designing Flint to make note capture as zero-friction as possible. The key is designing for different organizing time horizons (defer but track). disnetdev.com/blog/2025-11-3…

Flint is really coming together. My Thanksgiving week project was adding experimental EPUB support. Now you can highlight and chat with the LLM about your books!

Wrote up how note-taking apps are kinda weird and how to design for that weirdness. disnetdev.com/blog/2025-11-1…

The app's core pillars are: - You own your notes - plaintext, no lock-in - A UI that is humane - surface appropriate abstractions + respect for how humans think - Writing is thinking and you do the thinking - LLMs are useful magic but must not replace your writing/thinking

Wrote about a new project I'm working on. It's a note-taking/thinking-system app that evolved out of an experiment with using just an MCP server for taking notes. Turns out you need a UI. disnetdev.com/blog/2025-10-1…

I’ve been experimenting with building a GTD system in plain text with Flint. I think it’s kinda neat. disnetdev.com/blog/2025-07-0…

Wrote about Flint Note. I've been chasing the perfect note-taking system for years but every tool eventually became a prison when my thinking changed. Built an MCP server to solve that - markdown + AI agents that adapt to your workflows. disnetdev.com/blog/2025-06-3…

lol. lmao Twitter is done, I'm over on the elephant site

uh oh

I mean, it's a microservice, Michael, how much work could it do? One RPC?

Oh you’re sad about losing all your crypto? Sam Bankman-Fried just manslaughtered a trillion interstellar humanoids in the distant future — imagine how he’s feeling. Have some sympathy for once.

i truly believe that i will usher in a new era of peace and prosperity when i get every single post on hthis fucking website deleted by 2022

Factorio players are optimising their belt balancers by reducing belt balancing to SAT and feeding to a SAT solver. Fucking incredible github.com/R-O-C-K-E-T/Fa…
