I've just re-run the numbers on Claude Code commits. It's grown significantly again.

I spent quite a while trying to work this out, but I would be very happy if anyone wants to check my methodology and accuracy.

Here are some stats that I track in the articles that I've written over the last year or two.
It covers Github commits, commits by agents (as far as I can detect) and a couple of other stats. I've also included stats about React usage (which was used in Dead Framework Theory post).
If I've got this correct, this should update every month now.

There's lots of data about the usage of web constantly declining, replaced by time on closed platforms (FB, Insta, TikTok) and apps. I think it's true.
What are "only the web can do this" experiences you've seen? I want to create as a big a list as possible

I ended up munging my own RSS-> JSON -> Edits -> RSS.
I've been wanting a way to get full-feed RSS when the author doesn't provide it.
Code: https://github.com/PaulKinlan/full-rss/tree/main
Example: https://full-rss.deno.dev/?url=https://developer.chrome.com/static/blog/feed.xml
Not perfect, and I need to convert the markdown to HTML, but it's getting there
If you like RSS feeds but get overwhelmed keeping up with them, hit me up. I've been building a small service that sends you summaries everyday.
I'd love some testers and feedback
