I have absolutely no reason to be verified other than it being cool @bsky.app

Is there a good catalog out there for existing projects that run on ATProto? I want to create a soundcloud type client that sits on top of ATProto, but I realize if there's an existing lexicon I can use, that's better than starting from scratch.

yes, of, coursewedoez

Wait, Fred again.. dropped an album last Friday? and it's 3 hours long?

If your name is something’Dale and you played for the NYGiants last season, you play for the Tennessee titans today

God, I love free agency. 'wait, you're telling me WHOOOOO is going HWHERRRRRRRRE?! Staaaaahp"

Software only continues to get more fun. The more I understand, the more I can imagine with specificity. Out here daydreaming systems.

This song feels incredibly relevant today.

No Hands by Wocka Flocka Flame creates an incredible soundscape. It’s so loud and harmonious.

Are there any ATProto video hosting platforms with desktop support? @sprk.so is mobile only.

I'm listening to The Power Broker, a biography of Robert Moses. I'm still on the first third of the book. I know he goes Darkside, but right now this book is hella inspirational. www.audible.com/pd/The-Power...

You know, @mlb.com, lotta baseball fans here on Bluesky, the official sports app and a lot of great posting. And it’s just too bad you’re not here, too. Oh well.

Opus 4.6 is an incredible Data Structures and Algorithms tutor. Truly revolutionary.

I finally understand greedy algorithms 101 and now I'll always be thinking about greedy algorithms.

It's weird to think there was a world before Satisfaction by Benny Benassi

If I were a Dem strategist my anti-Trump messaging would have been “the only thing he’s good at is talking shit.” He’s very good at talking shit.

Just landed after a flight and pulled out my phone to see if the Knicks won and holy shit #knicksSky

youtube.com/shorts/qrXJi... There are way too many Jalens in the NBA. Shout out @raineyovalle.bsky.social

I'm playing my mother in law Bad Bunny on her amazon device. It wasn't finding any of the songs by name until we told the device to understand Spanish. Wild.

I contributed to @tangled.org tangled.org/tangled.org/... 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 enjoy your mermaid diagram renderings

How often were they writing about superfreaks in Newsweek Magazine?

Biggie Smalls ruined the word Notorious. People use it interchangeably with famous, when it means famous some something bad.

I always remember Iftar is the Ramadan meal in the evening because it’s one letter away from “after.”

I added a throughput analysis script to clock how many posts I see per second via the Jetstream. After running it for 4 minutes, I averaged about 56 posts a second. This totals a little over 4.6M posts a day. According to bsky.jazco.dev/stats, my estimation is a high, as I'm sampling peak hours

I've got my skyline script - tangled.org/natespilman.... - listening for "Seattle" and "Jersey City" - and man, it's like 99% Seattle. Gotta get the Jersey City homies in Bluesky.

That worked immediately. Seattle is just quiet this morning.

testing my watcher script that's looking for the word Seattle.

In honor of @tangled.org's launch and all the energy around @atproto.com, I published tangled.org/natespilman.... - a thin client on top of the Jetstream and bsky API built in @typescriptlang.org. shout out open, decentralized internet ❤️‍🔥

You can put chips on a salad and it’s still a salad. But chips and salsa isn’t a salad. Make it make sense.

One of my favorite bits is adding people in Linkedin... as a bit. Like, the dude who wrote the Hot Drinks Wendys training video jingle in the 80s (iykyk)? I found out who that was and we're not connected on LinkedIn. Ex NFL players no on the next stage of their career? LinkedIn connections.

“Signatory” is such a cool word for “someone who signed something”

Flavor Flav is the REALEST, y'all

let's gooooooooooooo

I just vibecoded a Jetsteam script to find accounts named Nate and console log their posts in realtime. This is a test to see if I made the Nate list.

As an English speaker natively - why the heck are so many languages gendered?? I just learned that Hindi is gendered?! Why do inanimate objects need to be male or female?

apnews.com/article/wash... this is just embarrassing

they did it. They really did it. @theverge.com @hankgreen.bsky.social @reckless.bsky.social

Now that Kanye has apologized for all the antisemitism, can we listen to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy again? asking for OMG I MISS YOU SO MUCH

Send help. I'm learning RegEx.

The announcer said that every time she sees the Olympic flame it gives her chills - which is the opposite of what flames are supposed to do.

I keep seeing people who look like people I knew ten years ago - but these people look like they did 10 years ago. They look like the people I knew when I knew them.

The fact that Gina Lenetti from Brooklyn 99 is IRL married to Jordan Peele is something I regularly Google to confirm.

Whoever named the Great Dane did an immaculate job

I'm stunting on you

I didn't need this today (yet another incredible distraction)

Listening to the audiobook of Designing for Data-Intensive Applications, and I’m absolutely blown away by the amount of complexity and solved problems at the lowest levels of the software tools I use on a daily basis

I've been running the same interview question for work, and the early indicator that the candidate isn't going to do well is they duplicate state / compute values earlier than they need to be computed. By the end of the interview, they're drowning in a web of complexity of their own making.

My laptop was out of disc space, so I deleted 27 gigs of caches, node modules and docker images. Here's a summary, in case you find yourself in a similar situation. natespilman.com/blog/2026-02...

I'd like to think the existence of dumplings imply the existence of much larger dumps.
