We absolutely need more games like this AND to keep supporting more games like this. Bringing your idea to life in an accessible way for _any_ player to experience it in its totality should be more normalized.

If you've been thinking about commissioning a custom painting from me, I have a couple of commission slots open for the spring and summer! Please reach out over email, and we can chat about how I can turn your idea into an original oil painting. tishamark.com/contact-and-... #art #painting #SciArt

Woah! @woody.fm asks @case.bsky.social for a list of sci-fi books and she delivers!

Looking forward to seeing this ding-dong again tomorrow.

Fishing line injuries are affecting our wild birds! I just finished this new poster for local wild bird rehabilitation congressofthebirds.org guiding readers on what to do if they find catch or find a bird caught on a fishing line, hook, or lure.

Got one more day of activity up here in BC, but getting ready to leave campus today. HUGE thanks to everyone involved in putting together the #atmosphereconf, UBC for the venue, and the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), whose unceded land we had the opportunity to convene on. Onward to 2027!

I have literally 300+ tabs across two devices of cool things to follow up on after #aTmosPHerecoNf Thanks to everyone—presenters, attendees, and more—for such amazing references, stories, resources and more!

This is a @lucca.northsky.team appreciation post! She did a great job putting together the whole volunteer program and running things on site. Among the many many other things we had to get done ahead of the conference!

This is a @bmann.ca appreciation post. He was an amazing lead at putting together the conference, and his laugh is infectious and lights up the room. Thanks for having me on the team!

As #ATmosphereConf draws to a close, this is a good time for me to let folks know that I'm looking for paid work! I have a strong background in project management in tech, and apparently am decent at event planning too now! If you need help with a project, let me know! (reshares appreciated) 💚💜

I don’t care what anyone says, I’m riding the shit out of the light rail E2E when I get back home!!! It was so rude to schedule the opening when atmosphereconf was happening!

As someone from outside BC, but from the PNW, I was curious to learn more about Bill Reid and his relationship with carving and the Haida after seeing his art at the MoA. Serendipitously, I stumbled on this short doc when researching cedar today. www.nfb.ca/film/bill_re...

“In the beginning, there were two labels.” Biblical. @drkalyncoghill.blacksky.team

really inspired by what @drkalyncoghill.blacksky.team and the blacksky team built to create a safe platform for users AND moderators AND blacksky stands by the opinions of its team!!! it doesn't matter how many years you worked in trust + safety if the community doesn't trust YOU

at the Q/A session, @drkalyncoghill.blacksky.team discusses what it takes to make a real trust and safety team at #ATmosphereConf "...expert experience, not expert resume..."

Black people meet up ✊🏽@atmosphereconf.org #ATmosphereConf Next year, we will be even more present, and I’m going to plan something for us to do together!

A lot of @pds.ls -like refs being dropped here at #atmosphereconf It is its own genre!

Perennial state ...

One of the grand ironies, to me, of pro-LLM use is the argument that it can make personal, more person-centered software while in the same breath, dismissing hand-written software as the enemy because it is inherently made only for its creator(s) benefit and not a community or the people who use it.

Apropos of nothing, the current #atmosphereconf talk about Resonant Tech and its manifesto resonantcomputing.org makes me also think of another manifesto manifesto.disco.coop

Also, the last part of @case.bsky.social‘s talk mentioned the Calm Tech Institute www.calmtech.institute which seems like an amazing idea, resource and initiative. Some overlap vibes with dynamicland.org So exciting these things exist and looking forward to forward to the path they are forging!

@case.bsky.social dropping one of the best talks here at #atmosphereconf

You can pet the accorgion in People of Note

Guess I’m going to have to massively accelerate my little project now. Stay tuned; I’ll try to get a placeholder site and interest form pulled together in the next day or two.

All robots should have more whimsy!

Last year it was just me on the team slide. Then my Risk Takers committed to taking that risk with me This year I flew them all out for the second atmosphere conference. Met @drkalyncoghill.blacksky.team and our international member @thezodiacheir.blacksky.team IRL for the first time #TakedownGang

“Love the ones you starve with; them the ones you eat with” Shout out to my Risk Takers ❤️‍🔥 The tech industry has never seen a team like us before. If you wanna know why we’re winning, you’re looking at the reason. You’d be blessed to have any one of them on your side. @blackskyweb.xyz

the single best team (and the most meaningful work) ive ever been part of endlessly grateful to be working with this group

I’m with you on this, and I have a number of concerns about the tech, but maybe even more a) the casual way it was announced and b) the fact that many of the valid questions in the room around privacy, trust, etc seemed both unexpected and unwelcome. A marked disconnect from user sentiment.

The official White House Android app has a cookie/paywall bypass injector, tracks your GPS every 4.5 minutes, and loads JavaScript from some guy's GitHub Pages.

@vvill.dev @graham.systems yo let's actually make @atproto.pdx happen - you guys have time tmrw for an impromptu "let's start a meetup " meetup?? if so, drop a time slot (or slots)

every talk by @kissane.myatproto.social comes with the reminder that we are part of nature and should look to the rest of nature for recalibrating in times of human-created chaos. i am never not hopeful and emotional after!

Hudson is a certified snack-time professional! 💙 Muskoxen spend a big chunk of their day grazing, fueling up on grasses and browse to keep those massive bodies (and cozy coats) going strong. 💪

More and more animated neon being added to bring the environments in PROJECT MIX to life! #indiegame #gamedev #hongkong #neon

Welp, had to go for a walk after the Paul & Jay talk. A lot of thoughts. Probably requires slowing down, reflection, and a long form post or two. Lucky for me, I was already writing similar words on Friday morning. For now all I’ll say: you have to live your principles or your word means nothing.

Big mama needs to lie down. Day 2 tomorrow. I present at 1:30. Pull up. atmosphereconf.org/event/2E9XG1b

Community calendaring in Oakland on #atproto with @pop.pe #ATmosphereConf

📍 Doughgirls Bakery · Vancouver, British Columbia, CA ★★★★★ I might take some flak for this, but the baguette from Doughgirls is Paris quality or better. https://beaconbits.app/beacon/encd5o6kebdu3ot32nn2jljp/3mi5vh6htpc24 #BeaconBits

I brought tissues to the “opening” for #atmosphereconf this year in case @kissane.myatproto.social and/or @rude1.blacksky.team make water come from my eyes again.

Keeping this thread in mind as we take in more of the content here today at #atmosphereconf

This is amazing, beautiful, and wonderful. Full stop. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Nini is rolling through Seattle (and the US generally) in April, and I am very tempted to go to her show. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iew7...

@goose.art, Goodstuff, and crew, hitting the town.

Hey, so, anyone at #atmosphereconf that is not a drinker, or just wants to hang, know of a good spot to head to tonight? I’ve been hidden inside the last couple days, and would love to hang.

Spotted on my post-sessions walkabout today. @bmann.ca needs to make sure Goodstuff gets off campus safely after #atmosphereconf is over!
