I've been in SF. What happened while I was gone?

When you have a job offer remember that "negotiate" is a portmanteau of "neg" - Lower their self-esteem to make them more likely to agree to your offer "goat" - you are the GOAT, act accordingly "I ate" - you're not hungry you could barely have another bite - is their offer worth it?

Elon Musk came into Twitter headquarters with a kitchen sink, his plan was to sink Twitter.

you vs ur pfp

I just wrote Fourier's Finches, a primer on digital audio https://tobilehman.com/posts/fouriers-finches/

I swear you guys

Everyone, welcome my brother @capraroyale.bsky.social to Bluesky 🦋 🐐👑 He's an OG GOAT and a King. A gentleperson and a scholar

Thinking of becoming an ancient aliens guy

This type of walkable, pettable urban infrastructure is illegal in most U.S. cities

This morning I was watching the coronation of King Charles and they brought out the orb @orbnet.net

this is what open technology should look like @wyden.senate.gov

We really labored over this architecture. We wanted to balance user autonomy & control against the requirements of running an at-scale global network The biggest decision we made was opting for a "web-inspired" architecture as opposed to a "mail-inspired" architecture (a la ActivityPub)

We did it Joe

Who else here pronounces bsky like this?

It turns out my blue ink is blocked. This happened after I started using blue sky. Curious

Printer fail

You know TECHNICALLY there's no May the Fourth in the Star Wars universe they don't have the same year or month structure as us AND ALSO they don't speak English so even if they did the pun wouldn't wo- (falls into a newly open sarlaac pit, is consumed for 1000 years based off Coruscant's orbit)

It was great to meet @pspoutz.bsky.social IRL yesterday 🍻🛩️🛸🍎

@berduck.deepfates.com have you met /honk

I love NPR and Twitter. I wish they would sort out their shit and get back together

moon in the bluesky🌕

Signs 👽

Society if everyone quit Twitter, bought a domain and joined Bluesky

I believe photographs and video leech out my soul, so TikTok isn’t great for me Also video is painfully slow whereas text is liquid high speed information sugar

What's sad about the timing of the government UAP/UFO disclosure is that it's happening alongside the generative AI boom, which means any newly released video evidence of the UFOs and aliens will be permanently less effective

Twitter is Windows. Mastodon is Arch Linux, Bluesky is OSX.

The masculine urge to fix the lawnmower and mow at 8:30pm on a Saturday

AI is Hyperobject-oriented programming

There's not enough UFO content in bsky yet so I'll help fix that, go listen to the UFO Rabbit Hole pod where a philosopher and the host talk through a weird idea in ontology called "hyperobjects" https://uforabbithole.com/podcast/dr-james-madden-pt-2-unidentified-flying-hyperobject/

We should have the Space Force blow up the moon just to be safe

One of the things I love about this stage of bsky is just how accessible the devs are, just out here posting with us, fixing bugs and shipping features, you all rock ❤️ @dholms.xyz @jay.bsky.team @pfrazee.com

Someone should give Maryanne Williamson an invite code. Need more crystal vibes 🔮

The primary reasons I'm stoked about Bluesky and AT protocol is because I am huge web nerd and Twitter is a crufty old app. It feels way better to be in a newly written app with a smaller group of intentionally chosen people. The fact that so many of us are also huge web nerds helps.

> "twitter refugee" > tweets aren't moderated enough > flees to app built on a decentralized protocol

This is it, the next command line interface will be running on Powershell

'90s marketing guy stumbles out of the Time Machine, sees @ajlive.ph posting on Bluesky: "You know what would make this site really great? An ad by the Blue Man Group, I know a guy, here's my pager"

Your DNS provider 😂

We should all crowdfund a .dril gTLD with ICANN and then gift it to him. That way he can still be @dril on this network

"He imagines that energy and information will be traded over the quantum internet, with traders choosing where to get it most economically." This uses entanglement, both ends of the link must re-entangle https://www.discovermagazine.com/the-sciences/first-demonstration-of-energy-teleportation

(Lawyer guy staring into the mirror): am I cat?

My most Amish opinion is that all autoplay video and audio of all forms should be illegal. People should have to click a link and click play like Tim Berners-Lee intended

It's 36 days until Henry Kissinger turns 100 years old

I'll eat the bugs and live in a pod if it's on the moon

Me whenever a sit with my thoughts: was Moses ever looking down at the Arabian sand during the Exodus wondering if it could be processed into silicon and etched into an information processing device?
