FYI though users on this system won't be able to see it, the truffle.us-east.host.bsky.network PDS is down. Debugging with our upstream provider.

What idiot called it vibe coding and not prayer programming

Well, it's official: github.com/ThisIsMissEm... Yes, the website is currently non-existent. @thisismissem.social is still building it. Patience young padawan.

Hello, we're aware of bsky.network instability issues and are working to address them

*american voice* Toblerone is really good it turns out

todays my birthday. it’s also the day 16 years ago I discovered that a customer for the data center I worked at had racked 3 full cabinets with over $200k of brand new server hardware on top of $80 of canned soda from our customer lounge vending machine to avoid spending $600 on mounting rails

quickslice is like tap but instead you’re at the bar with At The Drive-In on full blast

We just released Tap, a tool designed to handle the hard parts of repo synchronization, so you can focus on building your application. It's now easier than ever to stay up to date with Atmosphere records for dev, data analysis, or any other task at hand! docs.bsky.app/blog/introdu...

to sincere post a bit: the ability to receive important timely updates like this one, from regional govt and institutions like this over an open protocol (vs closed/proprietary platforms) is a huge part of why I work on AT

This was a fun conversation. Thanks to ACM Bytecast for having me on. learning.acm.org/bytecast/ep7...

play this on repeat until your problems go away

thinking about design patterns and data stores for indexing billions of AT records

The AT Protocol PLC Directory allows a higher-priority rotation key to revert a key change for 72h. But what good is that window if you don't know about a change? Well, here's an Atom feed generator of PLC operations for any handle/DID. at.geomys.org/plc/

i just walked "check out sidetrail" by @danabra.mov sidetrail.app/@danabra.mov...

Build the thing you wish to see in the world A blog post about building things because you want to, learning about #ATProto, and some recently influential conversations I've had on the @overcommitted.dev with @bradhe.net @turoczy.bsky.social and @ngerakines.me brittanyellich.com/build-the-th...

Wrote my first leaflet! This is about the threat-model of PLC & the current work we're doing to address that including making the directory more auditable

Ashburn Virginia, colo mama, take me home, Ashburn stroad

Any moots know any great systems SWEs with networking focus looking for a new gig right now? A good gauge is if they've recently written any eBPF programs. Go background is also a plus. Figured I'd toss out a line. Company is ~30 people running our own HW in colo DCs doing IaaS. Thanks y'all!

People on Zillow really will stick a porta potty in their front yard and call is a 1.5 bath

Here's a little design concept that didn't make it into the product

The pure @ziglang.bsky.social DOM now with a REPL and V8 bindings showing off our query selector engine

“The average American town has 2 stroads” factoid actually just statistical error The average town has 0 stroads. Ashburn VA has 10,000 stroads and is an outlier and should not have been counted

*slaps roof of a giant 256 core server* yeeep this baby can even run one python process

Hopefully I've done this correctly in terms of the leaflet setup this time. Here's a first post in a series on T&S on Bluesky.

BlueSky shoutout on Abbot Elementary!

One happy realization over the past day of wins is that this site can be a place where political magic happens. This comes as a shock to folks on other sites who say we are in a filter bubble. Makes it all the more important that non-billionare controlled spaces exist. Media diversity matters.

Looks like X is juicing web visit numbers by opening a browser WebView in the background whether the user visits the link or not. They've re-invented pop-under fraud (allegedly). news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4580...

This is a fun chart! The green is the main bsky load balancer traffic throughput from Saturday night, and the purple is how much traffic there was 7 days before (the previous Saturday) The spike is due to the world series - pretty incredible! ⚾

Some of you don’t realize that The core Tinkerbell stack is comprised of the following services: Smee, Tootles, Hook, and Tink.

A note for sports: Bluesky’s engagement rate was x10 higher than X’s across a sampling of identical posts made on both platforms by @rapsheet.bsky.social (sharing with permission) Fwiw we see a similar trend across all communities, not just sports. Real people, real conversations.

Daniel Naroditsky's content was one of the main reasons I fell in love with chess. I genuinely can't believe he's gone. His streams were extremely fun and educational. What an unbelievable loss, RIP ❤️ www.chess.com/news/view/gr...

as a reminder: bluesky (the app) has a broad set of user interactions controls. beyond blocking and block lists, we have features to control who can reply, mention, and quote-post accounts
