Quoting John Gruber

https://daringfireball.net/linked/2026/08/07/simon-willison-on-blogging">

Me, I try to get into the mindset of playing live music, not recording a studio album.

Except when I’m writing a piece where I really want it to be an album.

Those aren’t rare, per se, but they’re occasional.

If I tried to make every post a hall-of-famer I’d never get anything out.

I’m aiming for professionalism.

I’m performing live in front of an audience — not just jamming in my garage or bedroom, fucking around.

So I’m careful and concentrate.

I want to hit every note, in time.

But at my best I’m moving from song to song.
