New posts and project updates get published to a feed you can follow. No account, no email address, no algorithm deciding whether you see it.

What is RSS?
RSS (and its modern cousin Atom, which is what this site publishes) is a plain file that lists everything recently published here, in a format software can read. A feed reader checks that file every so often and shows you what’s new — like an inbox that only contains the sites you chose to follow.
It predates social media and still works exactly the same way: the site publishes, you subscribe, nobody sits in the middle.
How to actually use it
- Pick a reader. Feedly, Inoreader, and NetNewsWire (free, Mac and iOS) are all good starting points.
- Look for “Add feed” or “+” and paste in the address above.
- That’s it. New posts show up there whenever they go live.
Most readers will also find the feed if you just paste in https://noahkarsky.com — the
address is advertised in every page on this site.
What shows up in the feed
- New posts — the full text, so you can read it without leaving your reader.
- Project updates — when a project page gets meaningfully revised.
Prefer email?
There’s no mailing list yet. If enough people want one, services like Follow.it and Blogtrottr will take the feed above and mail you new items — you can set that up yourself today without me having your address.
