Letter to the Editor Backlink in Chicago Sun Times
I was checking my backlinks on Ahrefs when I saw one from the Chicago Sun Times. I do not recall having had a Chicago Sun Times backlink, so I checked to see what it was about. On July 1, 2026, the paper published America 250-inspired letters to the editor. One of these letters, from Harvey...

Tell Everyone About Your Hero[in]ism
A friend sent me a link to an interview in Natiulus titled I Am a Heroin User. I Do Not Have a Drug Problem. I trusted that she sent it to me because she thought based on the headline that it would be a very sober take (or the opposite, either/or). Against my better judgment,...

Responding to Nagoya Basho Grades
I read and enjoyed Josh K's Some Highly Subjective Grades for Nagoya 2026, referring to the Nagoya Basho grand sumo tournament. He gave out four A's to M7E Kotoeiho, S2W Aoniishki (A+ to the winner), S1E Atamijfuji, and OE Kirishima. I cannot disagree with any. The latter three competed in a playoff for the title,...

On Tactics to Hit the Hacker News Front Page
I read a post by Herbert Lui titled 5 tactics for hitting the Hacker News front page. I had six New Leaf Journal articles make Hacker News page one between April 2021 and January 2024, and can say with certainty that I never employed any of Mr. Lui's recommendations or things not to do. I...

Tadej Pogacar Shatters Pantani’s 1995 Alpe d’Huez Record by 1:15
I haven't watched the Tour de France since 2016, mainly due to the fact I dropped cable and would need to subscribe to a streaming service that may or may not work with my all-Linux set-up. But I stay abreast of the big stories, as I proved last year with my articles on the superhuman...

Were AI Blog Post Images Ever Cool?
I read an interesting blog post by Panagiotis Vryonis titled AI-generated blog post images are not cool any more. My first thought was "they were never cool." But I read on to see his perspective. While I and many others serve as proof that asserting that "everyone does it" is flippant, he does offer a...

Light Phone Continues to Fail QWERTY Test
I have read some articles about the Light Phone and other "minimalist" phones. As someone who wrote not one but two articles on my "ideal" phone concept (creative concept photography included), I am always interested in seeing new ideas in the space. I called for open source software, QWERTY keyboard, and an e-ink screen. The...

Cup Noodle (Cold Edition) in Japan
SoraNews24, which covers news from Japan, is a long-time member of my feed collection and a regular article contributor to the "Around the Web" secution of my weekly newsletter. They cover some "news" news, see for example an article I wrote based in significant part on a SoraNews24 report about dress code rules in Japanese...

Fortunate NBA Champions (2001-2016)
Writing for The Pudding, Russell Samora recently put together a list of the "most ethical" NBA champions, wherein he used a formula (with many entertaining graphs) to determine, going back to 2001, which NBA champions benefited the least and most from missed games against their playoff rivals. I followed the NBA closely for most of...

DRM-Free Ebook Sources
I read a blog post on Schemescape titled Using the Xteink X4, a minimalist e-reader. I have one, and I will have everyone know that I ordered mine in fall 2025 after reading about it in Liliputing before it apparently became an online "thing." But that aside, the Schemescape post, in noting that the X4...

Nagoya Basho Predictions
The Nagoya Basho grand sumo tournament is about to begin. I watched the first three tournaments of the year (January, March, and May) and am excited for the fourth. I would not yet deem myself competent to predict the records of all the participants like Tim Edwards does on his always-interesting Sumo Stomp! blog, but...

Google Hardware Complaints Remind Me of BlackBerry Classic
I read an article on マリウス.com titled I Do Not Recommend Google Hardware. The author, Marius, goes through the issues he has had with various Google phones and tablets over the years. One of the issues, the Google Pixel 6a battery problems, struck a chord with me since my Pixel 6a was affected by the...

Settings in “No AI” DuckDuckGo
Back on June 8, 2026, Chris Wiegman published a blog post titled You Don't Need the DuckDuckGo noai Subdomain. For those not in the know, noai.duckduckgo.com is a subdomain of DuckDuckGo search which removes DuckDuckGo's new "AI" features. I wrote about how to add the "noai" version of DuckDuckGo as a search engine to Chromium-...

Joining Robert Birming’s JulyReply 2026
Last month, I participated in Robert Birming's "Junited" project, wherein I (and others) shared good blog posts from around the web. I joined late (see my Junited 2026 posts) and failed to share a few that I saved (I was busy in late June), but I nevertheless managed to share 19 blog posts and articles...

On Markdown Editors and Fluff
Rodrigo Ghedin published a short "hot take" on markdown: "[I]f you feel comfortable with Markdown, you don't need an editor that displays the formatting." I largely agree, although I personally use using KDE's Ghostwriter, which displays some markdown formatting and has some other nice quality of life features (built-in exporting UI being my favorite) that...
