*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! ⚾

can rust keep me safe from my horrible haunting memories?

good news! endless.dog is live again!

Oh hi! You should check these out. Especially that Technical Recruiter role, there... bsky.social/about/join

unused function parameters should be compile errors, I believe this strongly

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

yet another post about laundry baskets

(1/4) I'm soft launching nooki.me to get some early traction and feedback on what to improve. Excited to see how this platform grows!

golangci-lint rocks. it catches so many common errors

Want to work on open source full time? The @roost.tools engineering team is starting to hatch! Come build OSS tools making a difference in Trust & Safety. This is a fully remote role, though some schedule overlap with North American time zones is expected. www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/43...

@boston.gov onboarded all their agencies to Bluesky to engage with Bostonians. Whether it's broken sidewalks, missing signage, or community issues, they want to hear from constituents. With little to no engagement on X, their actual interactions on bsky have increased. Engagement > follower count

My painting DAKOTA FARMLAND

claude pointed out an obvious bug to me and I literally said out loud "that's absolutely right". this sadly is a real thing that just happened to me

my positive vision for atproto is for people to have a greater degree of self-determination on the public social web. baseline experience should be decent, but motivated folks should be able to organize and get more control over their online spaces and experience in line with their norms+values.

Nobody even works here. It's just me and 29 advanced AIs.

one day you realize you did your last backflip and that’s fucking sad :/

I’m going to run SYCL again this June! mattnite.net/blog/sycl-20...

Excited to open source @slices.network today! This is alpha software and the hosted instance is managed via a waitlist so bear with me! Looking to start onboarding folks and testing more broadly. Come join the discord discord.gg/NqSd3eW8S8! tangled-search.bigmoves.deno.net/share-repo/a...

we're hiring a Product Engineer at @bsky.app! social is changing quickly — our team is defining what comes next. if you're a 10X React Native dev who wants to ship features millions use daily and help bring the joy back to social, get in touch: jobs.gem.com/bluesky/am9i...

Hobbies include: looking around during the vows at weddings to make sure people see I’m not crying to demonstrate my strength

We are going to miss Jaz so much. They did stellar, crucial work and we owe them so much for everything they've done. Love you Jaz!

New blogpost alert: jazco.dev/2025/09/26/i... This one is about using load balancing and bucketing in more creative ways to solve problems with database contention. Part of the work we're doing building out a new DB layer on top of FoundationDB that will be FOSS! Hope you enjoy it!

come get em while they're hot!

cool stuff goin on in zig land github.com/ziglang/zig/...

things should be recovering now! though might be a bit bouncy. want to emphasize that this was not an attack or intentional takedown of Bluesky or atproto, just boring old transit disruption. we already had work underway to improve network resilience for our services...

very excited to share this update about bringing AT to the IETF! last week we uploaded two drafts to the IETF datatracker and today we heard that we’re approved to host a Birds of a Feather at IETF 124 (the formal meeting towards establishing a working group)

we should add a laugh track to bsky. as you scroll, it plays the laughing noise and the Seinfeld bass track
