Apparently the nightly email didn’t go out last night. The problem was an error when it tried to read the Linkblog entries for the day. I’ve seen reports that these errors happen when you try to read the Links tab on scripting.com. The error shouldn’t kill the email sending, it should just omit the linkblog entries, and publish the rest. These kinds of problems always pop up at the worst time. Luckily yesterday wasn’t a big news day, and you can read about it on the blog. #

I was looking for a codename for a new scripting environment Claude and I are making attempting in every way to do exactly what Frontier does. But until it does that I need a nice name, memorable, maybe a bit magical and positive. Frontier has been gone, thought to be lost, but with the advent of Claude Code we were able to get it running again in current OSes on current hardware. I shouldn’t call it Frontier because who knows if the end result will be compatible enough to claim that. But I want a codename that reflects hidden, forgotten and overlooked wealth. Like a civilzation that rose from the ashes,” or as it turns out, the bottom of the ocean. #
