Hmm, that's a lot of email.

I’ve been using the Raycast 2.0 beta for a month or so and it’s good — lots of polish and subtle improvements. Worth noting: “Free during the beta: OpenAI's GPT-5.4 mini, global dictation, and several Pro features. In exchange, tell us what needs improving.” Get it here: raycast.com/new?via=chris

Fuck off Google. I keep removing this from my Login Items, and AGI keeps adding it back.

Introducing Indigo A beautiful new app for Bluesky and Mastodon and the best way to experience both social networks together. It's tough keeping up with everyone when they're split across networks but Indigo brings them together for a seamless social experience. apps.apple.com/us/app/indigo-...

Found @bmann.ca in my Flickr archive, circa 2005. Love the Flock sticker! Such a bright guy. 😄

“In the atproto community, apps built on the protocol are called ‘Atmospheric.’ So: my website is now Atmospheric, and this post is about what that actually means.” @disnetdev.com said the thing! www.disnetdev.com/blog/an-atmo...

Introducing Disperse: an experimental sharesheet that allows you to share to several Atmosphere services at once. At launch, it supports @bsky.app, @blackskyweb.xyz, @semble.so, @margin.at, @rabbithole.land, @kipclip.com, and @sill.social, with more planned. 1/

Did Tesla lose a lawsuit? Autopilot Naming Update This change only updates the name of certain features and text in your vehicle, and does not change the way your features behave. • Navigate on Autopilot has been renamed to Navigate on Autosteer • FSD Computer has been renamed to Al Computer.

First came @doctorow.pluralistic.net's enshittification. Now (according to @andrew-yang.bsky.social) The Fuckening is here.

Even the in-flight entertainment console wants to age gate and authenticate me

In the latest episode of @worktre.es, @jackbogdan.com and I discuss Flipbook as a proto example of generative interfaces, Claude Design's fancy-but-useless pixels, my vibe building adventures with @raycast.com's new Glaze app, and Recursive, a new Vertical IDE Platform (in early alpha).

Back from #atmosphereconf. Started with a 22 hour train ride/brainstorming session with @snarfed.org and @chrismessina.me followed by a weekend of diving into all the important things being built by so many talented people for all the right reasons. I miss everyone already.

USB-C on my United flight. Nature is healing. 😌

A recap of #atmosphereconf 2026 as well as an overview of why I'm spending my very limited free time in my life betting on ATProto (and why I think you should, too!) This isn't just for developers. This is for everyone. brittanyellich.com/atproto/

Dope! @timburks.me just demoed TestFlight, but on ATProto, no Apple ID required. He manages his app testers simply by following their accounts from the app’s ATProto handle. Only those followed accounts can sign in to the apps he’s building! 🤯 #AtmosphereConf

Come join us at 2:30pm to discuss EAR (Ecosystem Action Research) at #AtmosphereConf in room 2311

At #AtmosphereConf today, I'll be talking about our work at @anew.social building Bridgy, breaking down walls, and centering people, not platforms. Hope to see you at Great Hall South @ 4pm 🌐

just gave a lightning talk at atmosphereconf.org on v-it.org — the future of open source is social skills and capabilities that flow through your AT Protocol trust graph. your coding agent handles discovery, you own the trust decisions slides: v-it.org/decks/atmosp... npm install -g vit
