Are you or your company working on anything related to OAuth/OIDC or building anything that needs trust & safety (moderation)? If so you can currently hire me: emelia@brandedcode.com I'm a freelancer on US eastern time. #oauth #oidc #hireme

This is a cool project with a cute UI

wisp.place@wisp.place

the last 48 hours was time consuming because a lot of stuff i/wisp rely on were downstream of many of the CVEs released recently, as well as bugs wisp itself had. if wisp is useful to you, donations are much appreciated and keep things smooth: ko-fi.com/waveringana github.com/sponsors/Wav...

not sure if anyone from the bsky team could answer this, how come there's no rkey field in the `app.bsky.feed.defs#postView`? I feel it would be a bit more convenient than having to split a record's uri and get the rkey that way. #atproto @dholms.at

Jacky made a really good point here, just wanted to boost it. I don’t know what the right answer is because I’ve also seen people use similar labels to curb bad actors, but there are (hopefully unintentional) consequences!

Jacky Alciné@jacky.wtf

damn 80% of blacksky got the AI hater label; it might as well be "hide the negros" label 😬

@haskell.org I have a vague memory of work done at UC Riverside many years ago of someone working on a neural network library in Haskell that used category theory to model different types of networks. Does this ring any bells?

I am keeping this thread alive because I talked about the stress of finding work and I think it’s only fair to talk about whatever’s the status with it as it goes along. The one I’m waiting for an offer notice from is the same one I made this candle ritual for: hopeful but it took nearly a month!

I think bluemoji ( @moji.blue ) is still being developed? Have there been other lexicon proposals for emoticons? cc: @lexicon.community

Alexia@alexia.starlightnet.work

hey bsky nerds do y'all remember bluemoji has there ever been another custom emoji proposal for bsky??

Japanese atproto devs are cool and deserve more attention in English-speaking dev spaces here

すいばり@suibari.com

I develop and operate "Nagi", an AT Protocol-based social network that uses Bluemoji (@moji.blue) ! Although the user base is small, emojis are flying back and forth actively every day🥳 Thank you to @aendra.com!

Mochott, my AT Protocol blog platform that complies with standard.site, is growing steadily. It has everything you need, including an easy-to-use editor and scheduled posting. Although over 95% of our users are from Japan, it’s available worldwide. Be sure to give it a try! https://mochott.site/

mochott.sitemochott - When You Feel Like Writing a Little MoreExperience the thrill of writing. mochott is a free-form blogging platform that supports custom domains and mini-sites. It is powered by the AT Protocol.

context (if there is a better article let me know): www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... but right off the bat, a Black person dying during a boat ride in Mississippi with a group of white dudes is super suspicious and this is definitely not the only case of such "mysterious" deaths

@wake.st where's the pixelfed/vernissage camera :P

Chad@chadtmiller.com

messing around with a grain camera prototype. native atproto support. photos sync to your pds whenever it connects to wifi.

Note: Do not harass people (including OP), people have different backgrounds and views wrt. technology. I'm quoting moreso b/c I'm tired about how "AI" gets collapsed into one thing. "Basic machine vision" predates LLMs/current "genAI" by several decades. Please read: witchsky.app/profile/did:...

Duck AI Slop!!@duckaislop.bsky.social

Blacksky was one of the 1st PDSs to allow open sign ups We are also now the largest PDS deployment that doesn't run any of bsky's code Sorry for the turbulence. It was the one-time price to pay for being able to build features like private accounts or sign-in via phone number w/o waiting on Bluesky

@atproto.fr C'est la guerre!

Danielle got really annoyed with me when I asked her what the recent major achievements the French have given to the world. It was an earnest question though lol. I have no beef with the French, I just think they are a lot like New Yorkers in that they overestimate their cultural export impact.

Wow, two researchers were tackling the Navier-Stokes problem for a year without advertising their approach while using OpenAI models for assistance. When OpenAI hears of this they “discover” the exact same approach and won’t disclose whether their model plagiarized the researchers’ private sessions

I shouldn't have to say this but even if you think someone has a bad opinion, that's not a carte blanche license to harass trans people 🙃 this is just one example, I have seen more (+nasty screenshots): mu.social/profile/tifa... it's not AI-specific either this is just the most recent trend

Teefa@tifaret.bsky.social

I am trans and I use AI. I have received numerous death, rape, and kys threats on Bluesky. Every time it has been from an anti-AI activist. The anti-AI crowd is rotten and wouldn't act this way if they actually cared about trans safety. I am sick of my identity being used to defend this behavior.
