site: editorial tooling, grid masonry fix, new reviews + finds

UI / dev tooling - /find/ index: sort by file birthtime desc (sub-day chronology even when many finds share the same frontmatter date); render the captured-at on its own line under the host (~0.65rem mono muted) - New dev-only filter at the top of /find/: All / Not in lists, persisted in localStorage; "not in lists" hides finds referenced by any superpost - New editorial-tags chip strip on each find card (dev-only): selected tags visible by default, full picker on hover/focus-within with a "…" button for arbitrary tag entry; clicks copy /edit-find-tag <slug> <tag> to the clipboard via the existing EditConfirm singleton - New optional editorialTags: string[] field on the find collection - New src/data/editorial-tags.json — master list of available tags (initial set: ["delete"]); display order follows file order /grid/ now uses the JS Masonry component instead of CSS column-count, so the middle column no longer "dips"; tile hover updated to match the home page's accent-glow / no-translate style Content - New review: apex-markdown-processor (graduated from find of same slug; hero reused from the find folder) - New review: sindre-sorhus-older-mac-apps (graduated; intentionally hero-less per the source page's text-only design) - New review: superkey (added by user; hero wired in src/lib/hero.ts) - 24 new finds captured by /daily-finds across travel, jokes, quotes, product picks, and indie tools - 2 new finds superposts: 2026-05-04-a-small-atlas, 2026-05-04-off-until-needed Misc - daily-finds.log.md and candidate-sources.md updated with the day's runs - build-finds skill prompt iterated by user

 ### 1. Determine candidate pool

- If the user provided explicit slugs: use those.
- If the user provided a theme phrase only: scan all finds, surface the 8–12 that best fit the theme.
- If neither: scan recent (last ~14 days) finds that are **not yet referenced** by any existing superpost (read every `items[]` array; subtract). From the unreferenced pool, propose 1–3 thematic clusters of 5–10 finds each, with a candidate theme phrase per cluster.
+- **If the user provided explicit slugs (seed mode)** — usually the case when the user clicks the "Make a finds collection" button on `/find/`. Treat the slugs as a *seed*, not a final list.
+  1. Read each seed find's frontmatter (`tags`, `topics`, `subtitle`, `description`) and body.
+  2. Infer the through-line — the smallest phrase that captures what these finds have in common (a virtue, a use, a feeling, a structural pattern). Lean specific. Good: *"single-virtue tools"*, *"things that pour clean"*, *"objects that exist for no reason except someone wanted them to"*, *"vintage-leaning everyday carry"*. Bad: *"useful things"*, *"cool stuff"*.
+  3. Compute the **unreferenced pool**: every find that does NOT appear in the `items[]` array of any existing `src/content/finds/*.mdx` superpost. The seed slugs may or may not be in this pool — they're the seed regardless.
+  4. From the unreferenced pool, find every entry that fits the inferred theme. Use frontmatter signals (tags, topics, subtitle) and body content. Don't reach: three weakly-fitting items is worse than zero. If a candidate's fit feels strained, drop it.
+  5. Combine `seed + qualifying unreferenced matches`, deduped. Cap at **8 total** (per sizing notes below). If the combined list exceeds 8, drop the weakest fits — never drop a seed slug; if the seed itself is more than 8, ask the user which to drop.
+  6. Produce one cluster (theme phrase + final items list). Continue to step 2 to confirm before writing.

 Re-use is allowed — a find can appear in multiple superposts under different themes. But by default, prefer surfacing **unreferenced** finds first; only reach for re-uses when the theme genuinely calls for them.

+## 2026-05-04
+
+- **Tokyo Paladin** — https://tokyopaladin.substack.com/ — surfaced via Daring Fireball Linked List crediting their post on Noir, the Yamazaki "Japanese Oreo." Substack focused on Japanese consumer products and cultural curiosities, in the vein of "things you can only buy in Japan that quietly outclass their global competitors." Substack feed should be curl-friendly via the standard `/feed` pattern. Strong candidate for the gifts and general-delight buckets.
+- **PetaPixel** — https://petapixel.com/ — surfaced via Kottke link to NASA's Artemis II photo dump. Long-running photography publication; coverage spans gear, photo essays, and historical archives — overlaps general-delight (photo finds) more than tools. WebFetch-friendly historically. Vet for noise-vs-signal across topics before adding.

+Graduated from find captured 2026-05-04, source: r/macapps. New category `indie` introduced for the editorial-about-developer-practice angle (no existing category fit). No hero asset — `sindresorhus.com/apps/older-versions` is intentionally text-only (no `og:image`, no `<img>` tags, only an inline SVG favicon); review matches the find in being hero-less.

+### Hero coverage

+- Heroes saved: 15 of 16 attempted (sindre-sorhus + 5 quotes + 3 jokes intentionally text-only).
+- Single hero failure: snewpapers-newspaper-archive — site returns HTTP 406 "browser not supported" to iPhone Safari UA, no extractable images on the rendered shell, topic doesn't lend itself to a Wikipedia fallback. Accepted as no-hero.
+- Wikipedia fallback used: garden-of-eden-swimming-hole → `Henry_Cowell_Redwoods_State_Park` og:image (the Outbound article's own og:image was a Mapbox map tile, deleted).
+- Brand-site screenshot fallback used: terminal-widget → `cdn.terminalwidget.app/.../widgets-700.21.jpg` (no og:image on the homepage; the source page links only to favicons).
+- Roadtrippers featured-image fallback used: seward-time-capsule → article-page `<img>` (no og:image meta despite the article having a hero — pattern worth noting for next pass).
+- Press-article fallback used: and-vinyly-ashes-records → Open Culture article og:image (the Wix-hosted andvinyly.com homepage has only a 192px logo).

+### New source nominees
+
+2 this run (see candidate-sources.md):
+- Tokyo Paladin (substack) — surfaced via Daring Fireball Linked List crediting their Noir cookies post.
+- PetaPixel — surfaced via Kottke linking to their NASA Artemis II coverage.
+
+No targeted WebSearch this run; candidate-sources.md is already healthy with un-vetted nominees from prior sweeps.
+
+### Source maintenance for next pruning pass
+
+- **Unusual Hotels of the World**: third run in a row returns the 4KB `<title>Uhotw</title>` SPA shell. Time to switch to `fetch: skip` with `skipReason: "Single-page-app shell — homepage HTML contains no content; would need a headless browser."`
+- **MoMA Design Store**: third run with the same signature (1.2MB curl body, only the `moma-e-gift-card` slug extractable from the nav). The `/collections/new.json` Shopify default returned nothing in past attempts. Mark `fetch: skip` until a JSON endpoint is identified, or accept this source is permanently nav-only.
+- **Uncommon Goods**: `/new-arrivals` 404'd this run (worked in 2026-05-03 round 1). `/fun/new-arrivals` also 404'd. The path may be `/products/new` or `/c/new`. Audit the live storefront to find the canonical new-arrivals URL.
+- **Kikkerland**: `/collections/new-products` 404'd. Used `/collections/all` as a workaround but it's noisy. Audit whether the canonical "new" path is `/collections/new-arrivals` or `/collections/new`.
+- **9to5Mac Guides**: the `/guides/` page renders only category navigation, not articles. Either point `fetchUrl` at a specific category like `/guides/macos-tips/` or accept this source needs per-topic deep links.
+- **A.Word.A.Day**: homepage doesn't display the daily entry inline. The actual word lives at `/words/today.html`. Add `fetchUrl: "https://wordsmith.org/words/today.html"`.
+- **icanhazdadjoke API**: `/api/random?count=15` returned 404. Their canonical multi-joke endpoint may have moved; the single-joke endpoint `/` with `Accept: application/json` should still work as a fallback.
+- **Atlas Obscura**: the article-index curl works but neither the place-detail nor article-detail pages yield extractable virtues consistently. After three runs of this same pattern, lower the editorial expectation — treat AO as a "title harvester" only and skip writing finds unless the title alone passes the bar (rarely safe).
+- **snewpapers.com**: HTTP 406 to standard browser UA on the homepage. Worth experimenting with a UA that includes specific `Accept-Language` and `Accept` headers — they may be filtering on those rather than on the User-Agent string itself.
+- **Roadtrippers**: articles do have hero images but no `og:image` meta tag — the hero fetcher needs a fallback to the first content `<img>` on the page when og:image is missing.

A solar fence light that waits in ambient dim until something crosses its sensor; a Mac voice-trigger that clicks any visible text; the VS Code command palette retrofitted into every Mac app; keyboard control for arbitrary UI elements; a Shortcut that fans a URL across every web archive at once; and the Android lasso that searches whatever you trace on screen. Different mediums, same posture — invisible by default, useful on trigger.

+
+*Apex piped through `cat`-and-render: tables, citations, and inline screenshots all visible at the command line.*
+
+> A single Markdown processor that understands every flavor people actually write — and turns your terminal into something that can show the images they reference.
+
+The Markdown ecosystem has spent fifteen years branching into incompatible dialects. CommonMark is strict, GitHub Flavored adds tables and task lists, MultiMarkdown adds citations and footnotes, Kramdown adds attribute syntax, Marked adds custom inclusion. Most tools pick one and ignore the rest. Apex picks all of them, and its parser figures out which extensions a given document uses without you flagging the dialect up front.
+
+The party trick is image rendering. Pipe a `.md` file through `apex` in iTerm, Wezterm, or any ANSI-capable terminal and the inline `![alt](path/to/screenshot.png)` references actually render — not as link text, but as the image itself, scaled to the terminal's character cells. It uses the iTerm2 inline-images protocol with a fallback to Sixel, so it works in most modern terminals and degrades gracefully in the rest. For a writer building documentation or drafting a blog post over SSH, that single feature changes how Markdown feels at the CLI.
+
+Beyond rendering, it has the tools you'd expect from a complete processor: file inclusion (`{{>partial.md}}`), fenced divs for callouts, citation handling, plugin hooks for custom directives, and HTML/PDF/EPUB output paths. Brett Terpstra has been building Markdown tooling for the better part of a decade — Marked 2, MultiMarkdown helpers, the whole nv* family — and Apex feels like the consolidation of everything he's learned about how people actually write Markdown.
+
+Honest limitation: it's a young project. The plugin API may shift, and a handful of MultiMarkdown edge cases around citation ordering aren't quite right yet. The project is open source on GitHub if you want to track issues or contribute fixes.

+link: "https://sindresorhus.com/apps/older-versions"
+description: "Sindre Sorhus quietly hosts free builds of every paid app he ships — Dato, Lungo, Battery Indicator, the rest — for users running macOS 15 or earlier. A standing offer renewed each year."
+source: "r/macapps"

+
+> Every year Sindre Sorhus posts the last-compatible free build of each of his paid Mac apps for users who can't or won't upgrade past macOS 15. Dato, Lungo, Battery Indicator, the lot — going back to 10.13.
+
+Sindre Sorhus is among the most prolific indie developers on the Mac platform. He ships dozens of small paid utilities — Dato (the menu bar calendar that quietly replaces the system clock for a lot of people), Lungo (one click stops your Mac going to sleep), Battery Indicator (the battery-time-remaining readout Apple removed), and a long tail of niche tools. Most are modest one-time purchases or small subscriptions.
+
+The Older Versions page is the part that earns its place here. Each time a new paid build ships requiring the latest macOS, the previous build is hosted free for everyone still on the older OS. The current page covers macOS 15 down through 10.13. Click the app, download the .zip, drop it in /Applications. Code-signed, notarised, no account or upgrade nag.
+
+The cumulative effect is a quiet guarantee: if you buy a Sindre app today, you're not paying for an upgrade treadmill. Stick on Sonoma in 2027 and the macOS-15-era build will be sitting on the page, free, runnable. The same goes for everyone else who can't afford a new Mac, won't trust the next OS, or simply hasn't rebuilt their muscle memory yet.
+
+This is rare in the App Store age, where stuck-on-old-macOS users routinely lose access to apps they paid for. Sindre's gesture covers his entire catalog. The page itself takes thirty seconds to skim — the work behind it is the part that matters.

+![A Superkey Seek overlay searching for "ryan" with a guide line drawn from the search bar to the matched word on the page below](./hero.jpg)
+
+> An OCR-driven click target for the Mac. Trigger a search, say or type the name of any visible label, and Superkey clicks it — no shortcut needed, no accessibility tree required.
+
+Most Mac keyboard tools work off the macOS accessibility tree. Homerow drops a two-letter label on every element the system marks clickable; Wooshy maps every focusable item. The catch is that plenty of clickable things — canvas-rendered widgets, Electron apps without proper a11y, embedded web views, custom controls — slip out of that tree entirely. You can see the button. Your keyboard tool can't.
+
+Superkey solves that by skipping the tree. When you trigger Seek, it OCRs whatever's currently on screen, indexes the visible text, and lets you find any label by name. Type *submit*, or say it; Superkey draws a guide to the match and clicks. Works inside Figma, inside web games, inside the half-broken third-party apps that have made the rest of your workflow keyboardable.
+
+Trade-offs are honest: OCR runs per trigger, so there's a beat of latency before the search overlay appears; heavily stylized text — gradient logos, texture-baked labels — sometimes doesn't read; and like every Mac power-user tool from this corner, it's a subscription. Brett Terpstra calls it the missing piece of his all-keyboard workflow, and that's exactly the right framing — Superkey doesn't replace Homerow or Keyboard Maestro, it patches the holes they leave.
