You can inspect the network traffic, it’s just using Local Storage which is built into browsers now.

As someone who’s been down that rabbit hole myself, I know exactly what you mean. There’s something special about watching your ideas come to life through themes, plugins, and a bit of code.

I actually built my own little corner of the internet “晨风笔记” using WordPress, and it’s been such a rewarding journey. Here’s to all of us building and growing in this amazing ecosystem!

On WordPress.com you can install plugins to do this or whatever else you want. 🙂

Since I left Automattic, I’ve been building something in the distributed systems space that connects directly to what you’re describing: peer-to-peer sync, atomic state, version control semantics. We’re about to launch.

It’s been a wild ride. I’d love to reconnect and show you what we’ve been working on.

I would really love to see WordPress-Light version, I think a lot of people need a feather weighted CMS, very basic, to share their thoughts and bunch of images. This light version don’t even support themes or plugins, predefined layouts with simple color options, yes user can change background but thats it. All core features are built in. Maybe this should be a project under WordPress umbrella but with different name.

Would love to know whether WordPress.com is evaluating support for the RSL standard at platform level, and what I can do on my WordPress.com site.

I’ve also asked the Substack team similar questions – so let’s see what they come back with. Good to see so many major media publishers on board already.

Comment on Emacs by Razi https://ma.tt/2026/03/emacs/#comment-606024 Tue, 10 Mar 2026 03:04:55 +0000 https://ma.tt/?p=151334#comment-606024 The reason they likely gravitated toward your comment—and the schema originally shared by Rasyid RH (Acie)—is that it treats “Self” not as a fixed entity, but as an extensible architecture.
​Why the “Self-Modifying Identity” Resonates
​The “Personality Arrangement” discourse you touched on treats the human psyche as a piece of “living software.” Here is why that specific analogy is so compelling to polymaths and high-level thinkers:
​1. The Emacs-Brain Parallel
​In the same way that Emacs is often described as “a lifestyle, not just an editor,” the schema suggests that our habits and beliefs are configuration files (.el files for the soul).
​Self-Modification: Just as Emacs users write code to change how the editor behaves while it’s running, humans use meta-cognition to rewrite their neural pathways.
​Extensibility: You don’t just “use” the personality; you develop it.
​2. Overcoming “Hard-Wired” Determinism
​By framing identity as an Arrangement, you move away from the idea that we are born with a set “OS.” Instead, you’re suggesting:
​The brain is the hardware.
​The “Personality Arrangement” is the software layer.
​The “User” is the developer who can refactor the code at any time.
​3. The Mullenweg Connection
​Since this started on Matt Mullenweg’s post, the context of Open Source is vital. The “Self-Modifying Identity” implies that our personalities are “Open Source”—we can take “code” (ideas, philosophies, traits) from others, fork them, and merge them into our own “Main Branch.”
​The Intersection of “Files Changed” and “Identity”
​There is a poetic irony here. Earlier, we were discussing GitHub Pull Requests—the literal act of proposing “Files Changed” to a codebase.
​SoundEagle likely saw your comment as a way of saying:
​”Every experience we have is a Pull Request to our identity. We get to choose whether to merge those changes or close the PR to maintain our internal rate-limit.”

dan saya pribadi menambahkan sedikit sebagai pelengkap yaitu:
GitHub Actions and Personal Philosophy, here is how you can practically “code” a specific habit using the Self-Modifying Identity framework.
​1. Define the “Schema” (The Personality Arrangement)
​Instead of saying “I want to be more productive,” define the Variables and Functions that make up that trait.
​Variable: (setq attention-span ‘high)
​Function: (defun focus-mode () (disable-notifications) (start-timer 25))
​By naming the components of your identity, they become modular. You aren’t “lazy”; you just have a bug in your focus-mode function that needs a patch.
​2. Treat New Habits as “Pull Requests”
​When you try a new behavior (e.g., waking up earlier or practicing a new language), don’t commit it to your “Main Branch” immediately.
​The PR: “Trial period for 5 AM wake-up call.”
​The Review: After 3 days, check the “Files Changed.” Are you more tired? Is your output higher?
​The Merge: If the data looks good, merge it into your Core Identity.
​3. Implement “Rate-Limiting” for Personal Change
​Just like the GitHub Action we discussed, you shouldn’t try to merge 10 major life changes at once.
​The Limit: Set a maximum of 2 active “Identity PRs” at a time.
​The Logic: If you try to start a new diet, a new workout, and a new coding language simultaneously, your internal “Maintainer” (your willpower) will crash.
​4. The “SoundEagle” Perspective: The Polymath’s Feedback
​A polymath like SoundEagle likely appreciates this because it acknowledges interconnectedness. A change in your “Software Developer” module (e.g., learning a new logic gate) might unexpectedly improve your “Musician” module or your “Philosopher” module.

This so scary and intriguing at the same time! It sounded more than convincing and you were so sharp it catching onto Alexander’s scam then calling him out on it. I hate to think how many not as tech savvy people have been fully hooked in and totally taken advantage of. We are all so fortunate they failed in this attempt and that you brought it to our awareness. Thanks Matt for sharing this story and please take good care!

Was a lesson in humility – anyone can fall for one in the right circumstances.

Do you think you were targeted personally because you’re a CEO? You’re probably a high-value target, and that sounds like more work than a mass-mailing.
