I wish more people understood that using AI and being generally in favor of a technology does not equate to supporting any and all usage/implementation of that technology. We all already understand this about computers, the internet, software, cameras, GPS, pharma, etc.

Pre-registering a request to put this $10 med lab in a @repebble.com when it becomes available (cc @ericmigi.com): www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

@rocksky.app needs a music recognition feature so I can finally replace Shazam. @tsiry-sandratraina.com Can I have this, please? 🥺

there’s a group of “leftists” on bluesky whose primary form of “praxis” is screaming abusive threats at ordinary everyday people on the internet this is not actually praxis or leftist, and we should not cede ground to their fatalistic and self-defeating behavior

My guess is @emdashcms.com powered by atproto. Who's taking bets?

i think we need to do a permission sets push... permission sets are mainly for giving nice human-readable, user-friendly descriptions of resources! if your OAuth screen looks like this, consider publishing/using permission sets. this is scary/useless/non-sensical to users

The podcast company got some cool swag, huh!

What if, for a year, we as atproto community focus on improving a major community lexicon every month We improve the hell out of it (if needed) and then integrate into existing apps where it makes sense and help each other to do so

Blocking Nazis and fascists doesn’t make a network an “echo chamber”. People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate them in order to be informed. This is where #WSocial ’s apparent enthusiasm for bringing the far right into the conversation worries me.

Demand DCs use renewable energy. Demand access to open weight models. Learn how to use AI effectively to do things you couldn't otherwise. Dont fire strays at friends

i think if you're triggered by a vague announcement that dogpiling is bad you might just be a dogpiler, man

Went from "we're making the world a better place" circa 2010 to "let's burn this motherfucker!"

I just heard a tech person say "I don't understand Markdown or know how to use it in any way, shape or form" and I don't know what to make of it.

Crap, it's 5:30 AM over here and I'm already craving for couscous. Thanks @pds.dad, you did this! 😆

Friend: I got my kid art supplies but I'm afraid her room will get even messier... Me: Well, you already have street at home. Might as well have street art too!

We've been using Markdown w/ YAML/TOML frontmatters for years but still haven't figured out how to display them properly! 😆 No shade on @tangled.org though, this is a widespread issue.

I feel like I've just accidentally summed up every Internet discourse from the last 25 years

Ah, open public data in Morocco... so useful! 🙃

X shuts down apps that show its posts. Bluesky exists to ernable it. One of these networks is about promoting freedom, the other is not.

a friendly reminder in case "idk, just accepting anyone is kinda a cool policy!": this is the guy who cannot get claude to translate his blog post because it suggests shooting and deportation as solutions to homelessness

re: omarchy trying to create parallel infra to subvert the linux community and kick trans/female/black people out i know some people think that sounds crazy but DHH literally is doing a podcast tour saying that is exactly what he's doing lol

@firefox.com @webdevs.firefox.com Can I have a button to "continue this time" please? 🥺

Hey @simonwillison.net! I'm an avid reader of your blog. Can you remove the `#atom-everything` that gets added to your URLs when visiting from an RSS reader? It's not a big deal but it messes with my bookmarks. Sorry for the random request, I totally understand if you don't want to. Thanks 🙏

Too bad .alt is a pseudo-TLD, it would be perfect for alt accounts.

Pardon my French but...

Just read Allen Ginsberg's Howl again. Thematic substance aside, the repetition of "who", "Moloch" and "I'm with you in Rockland" for rhythm, the elaborate verses, and the fast-paced delivery... it all feels like listening to bebop. Absolutely love it! www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/49303/...

Is going to the gym the ultimate roguelike?

It’s very clear by now that if LLMs are not improving your software quality it’s either a revealed preference (yours or your org’s) for more volume vs more quality, or a skill issue. The level of testing and review they are enabling in the Go cryptography standard library is amazing.

I propose to rename Forks in Open Source to Schisms. I think it's more accurate.

Seriously, how many Markdown editors do we need in this world?!!

It's funny how "low-level virtual machine" is now a more accurate description of WASM than LLVM.

Is me learning stuff from an LLM a distillation attack? (I've heard it's illegal in 7 jurisdictions) 🫣

It's funny how much of AI discourse feels like the Love, Death & Robots episode "When the Yogurt Took Over" 😝 lovedeathrobots.fandom.com/wiki/When_th...

Yes, this is what convinced me that atproto's design is so much better than other networks.

Since when did brutality become a requirement for honesty?

"Acolyte des illustres" for "follower" is the one that finishes me 😂

ugh web is so complicated. that certificate authority looks quite centralized to me. and that CDN might end up expensive to run at scale. and do we really need another standard? just use email

@tur.so and LLVM having a baby?!! 👀 turso.tech/blog/a-new-m...

My definition of magic (in programming) is when you make something nonsensical (kinda) work regardless. So to me, the Date API in JS is magic, but a hygienic macro system isn't.

Work or watch D&D campaign on YouTube?

Oooohhhh… that explains it Plus being able to go outside and find cute normies who will info dump about this to you? Mwah. Dream
