Back when Bluesky first launched, there was a ton of momentum about leaving Twitter. But it was hard to migrate, hard to crosspost. Too many people didn't make the jump. Software needs a critical mass like social media, and now the wind is in
@tangled.org
's sails. I hope they get it right.

hey
@tangled.org
... this might be a great time to build some tools that make it easy to try hosting your repo on Tangled, or at least write a blog post about how to move over.

Also, I always figure Bluesky is a good place to go for random transit questions: surprised that the skytrain is driverless without planform screen doors—I always thought the two were necessarily linked. What’s the story there?

Hey
@fly.io
! Would love if customers could manually increase their own machine limits ("i.e. I know what I'm doing"). Requiring an email to support is preventing us from taking advantage of fly's fantastic scaling :)

I’ve long said that a major factor in my choice of airline is WiFi. The fact that Air France now offers fast (and free!) Starlink means it’s now my usual go-to for flights to Europe. Fantastic work!

Remember that content moderation is a miserable job: viewing the worst parts of the internet on repeat for 8 hours a day. The less humans have to intervene the more ethical content moderation becomes.

There are so many reasons to love the Paris metro, but one of them is how quick stops are. The doors are open for less than 10 seconds at some stations. This is what platform doors and high frequency enables! If trains are arriving every 4 minutes, missing a train isn’t a big deal.

Update: it's just okay. Not worth it for $90 IMO and the battery life isn't great. It's also much larger than I expected. But, I'm going to keep giving it a go and see what the one-week update is!

Currently transported back to the 90s on my United flight — there’s a credit card reader built into the seat back and they’re showing the trailer for “Clueless (1995)” which is wonderfully dated.

Anyone know why the Seattle Metro has such wide corridors in their stations? Possibly to accommodate a future express track or something?

Ordered a tinypod (

) and will report back how it feels. I'm excited – I have basically stopped wearing my apple watch thanks to my Oura ring, but wish I could stop carrying my phone around. It *should* be able to do everything I want (Music, iMessage, etc.) but no YouTube or Twitter.

For this build, I’m running Shimano Ultegra Di2 (R8170). Ultegra is in the upper-middle tier of Shimano’s offerings, with 105 being the lowest and Dura-Ace being the highest. Di2 means the shifting is electronic — rather than running a cable, the shifters communicate wirelessly with the derailleur.

Building a new bike and figured I'd document the progress here! Something I love about cycling is the standardization across the industry – with some caveats, most components are compatible with most frames. This build begins with a Pinarello frame, the K10s.
