Things like this let me just throw homepages (or blog pages) at feed readers and they can discover all the different feeds available and I can pick one (although you really don't need more than one, generally).

Ever since Go got big, though, everyone else is discovering how fantastically nice they are, and that’s a good thing.

And 1Password will still let me export my crazy-long password and TOTP code to a plain text file if I want to switch to a different password manager (of course, I’ll have to do some planning beforehand to make sure that the export destination doesn’t get picked up by my backup software).

Yes. If some of my readers don’t like that I do that too often (or even once), they can unsubscribe.

Meanwhile, _as_ a reader, feeds like RSS and Atom are super useful. They let a computer check my favorite sites so I don’t have to.

Probably not.

iOS, iPadOS, and macOS have a pretty great built-in background-noise generator these days. While lots of actual beaches can go dead silent and then have a loud wave crash in, the waves that
