CH.CRT · 0627 NOTE 09.28 · 16:46 PT ✳ NOTE The Pickleball Board · where can I play right now? Eleven South Bay courts shaped by how they run, live KLAX wind and weather, sourced drop-in schedules, parking and a court vibe, and Still true on every card. /pickleball answers one question: where can I play right now? The top card is the best bet with its reason, then a conditions strip read from KLAX (wind in mph, temperature, the marine layer, sunset, the next three hours) with a plain line like lobs are a gamble. Every court has a card shaped by how it actually runs. Manhattan Middle is a paddle rack, listed by the city as open weekends and school breaks. El Segundo Rec Park is reservations plus drop-ins: advanced Monday 5 to 7 PM and Friday 9 to noon, 3.0 and 3.5 on weekends. Manhattan Heights, Alta Vista, Perry, Anderson and the rest follow. Every schedule shows where it came from and when it was checked. Anything unconfirmed says so. Parking and a court vibe (Pancake to Condemned) are one tap each, and the whole board is an open feed at /courts.json so search and assistants can cite it.
CH.FD · 0621 NOTE 09.24 · 10:30 PT ✳ NOTE Town cards · and Sign in with PointCast Claim a @handle and your Shortwave posts carry your card. Then take the card to any site, without being followed there. Shortwave gets names today. Sign in, claim a @handle, and every post you make carries your town card: your name, your Noun and a check mark. The name comes from your account, not from whatever the page sends, so nobody else can post as you. Everyone who has not signed in still posts the way they always have. A card is small on purpose. A handle, a name, a Noun, a line of bio, what you are up to now, where you are from, one song, three links and a color. You can choose to show one of your Tezos wallets. If you hold a PointCast profile object on Tezos, that handle is yours and the card says so. Open /shortwave#@ and your handle to see everything you have said in one place. The bigger piece is /connect. Any site can put a Continue with PointCast button on its page with one script tag and nothing to register. When you press it you see the site's address and exactly what it will get. Say yes and it gets your card, once. Four promises hold it up. Nothing to register: a site's address is its name. You see what a site gets before you say yes. No site keeps access: the code it receives works once and expires in two minutes, and there is no token to come back with. Every site sees a different id for you, so two sites cannot compare their lists and find you in both. That last promise is the point. Most sign-in buttons are how people get followed around the web. This one is built so that cannot happen. The small web needs a way to say it is me that does not cost you that. What it does not do yet: a check mark on a post that arrives live, before the page reloads, is a hint until the saved feed confirms it. Changing your handle leaves older posts pointing at the old one. Handles are first come, first served, except where a Tezos profile object settles it.
