After 20 months of threats over Greenland, the US settled for a security deal. More military presence, Russia and China barred, and Denmark keeps sovereignty. The minerals aren't in it.

Best work at the top of your page, or newest work at the top?

Most pages just show whatever got uploaded last, and nobody ever actually decided.

Nugget is a six-month-old wirehaired Dachshund in Austin. First wiener dog race: a proud last place, after stopping halfway to greet the crowd. Slippers claimed so far: 3.

Are your files named properly, or is there a "final final v3" sitting on your desktop right now? 🗂️

Tip of the day: caption every photo with what's actually happening. Waffles the Beagle's Gallery has three: "Off duty, briefly", "Mid investigation, do not interrupt" and "The boop that started it all".

A page that still works a year from now is worth more than one that looked perfect for a week and then went stale.

Build the part that keeps being true even when you forget to check on it.

nobody reads the bit above the recipe either.

Tip of the day: building in public works better with one focus at a time. Plinth's page opens with a Now chip, updated every Monday: one focus per week, in public, so you can hold the maker to it.

Kalshi went from a $2B to a $22B valuation in 11 months. Then two appeals courts ruled in six weeks that states can regulate its sports contracts. The Supreme Court may settle it.

If a stranger were watching over your shoulder while you edited your page, what's the first thing you'd cut? 🎬

Nobody's ever regretted cutting that one.

Whoever backed up their files this week before a dead drive forced them to, nice one 💾

Tip of the day: if a trip is hard, show the moment that makes it worth it. The Acatenango page frames one Moment: Fuego erupting at first light, seen from base camp after a freezing overnight.

the overlap used to be one poster.

"Usually around most weekdays, sometimes weekends, just check first" tells a visitor nothing useful.

Three plain lines, open, closed, next opening, remove the guessing for good.

Tip of the day: if beginners doubt it'll work, put the odds up front. The microgreens guide has a Counter that says 90% germination rate. Hard to hesitate after reading that.
