One way working with agents has helped my development process: I’m much more willing to throw away bad code, rather than try and adapt it into the right code.

Reading through this right now and for me, it re-emphasizes the need of platforms with robust moderation against antiBlackness and misogynoir like Blacksky. Will post the rest of the slides ⬇️

I'm gonna gently and lovingly call out folks posting YouTube links to Atmosphere talks. We have a WHOLE BUNCH of sites that members of the community have built to watch the talks. The atmosphereconf.org site itself has the talks up in the schedule. bsky.app/profile/stre... atproto > youtube.

@cosmik.network would be cool to be able to connect collections

The funny part about the convo about Blacksky and AI is that I actually agree with most people’s distaste about AI. What has gotten me in trouble is my refusal to condescend to people and frame them as ‘anti-liberation’ because of it. I just don’t jump to immediately demonizing Black folks.

March updates! @atproto.science and AtmosphereConf, @ronentk.me joined the BiTS accelerator, new Semble features like faceted following and faster card saving, plus exciting community contributions and cross-app integrations with @chive.pub and @skyreader.app Happy Spring 🌻

You can vote directly from any of the several Blacksky algorithmic feeds if using blacksky.community.

Been working on using category theory and panproto.dev to create algebraically provable codegen using #PhoenixArchitecture aicoding.leaflet.pub

🛶 coderaft :: A fully functional VS Code packed into a ~25MB, zero-dependency, platform-agnostic npm package.

Kiki and bouba are the only real genders

Like many others right now, I'm struggling to manage thousands of lines of code hastily written by a brainless entity that only cares about making things work on the surface, without any care for maintainability or quality. Huh? What do you mean, AI? No I'm talking about my own code here.

@katexcellence.io It's just the vibe I get where builders are like "how do we attract normies to this" I worked in tech for 15 years and now I'm a social worker. I don't really miss it. I would rather bring to social to tech than bring tech to social

New @chadfowler.com post just dropped. Get it while it's hot aicoding.leaflet.pub/3miwhqqvwxc2x #GenerativeStack

Good vibes had y'all. We got this.

@christian.bsky.social good meeting you. You're doing very important work for the community. Thank you

I never went to college yet all my friends are academic researchers

Good to see @faddah.bsky.social tonight. They've been doing the Portland tech thing for as long as I can remember

@scott.nstar.social cool hearing about northstar tonight. Good ideas about "pds shaped" alternatives

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV declares the Iran War is “unjust” and “is not resolving anything.” After suggesting Trump is committing war crimes by targeting civilian infrastructure, he called on Americans to contact Congress to help end the war.

Rather than trying to bring "normies" in, try to be normal. I mean that in the best way possible

@liminal.rip just post something lol. Share with the world r package management in nixos

Hung out with @chadtmiller.com I'm one of the cool kids now

As promised, we’ve created a policy document outlining our thoughts on AI and agentic coding (AI for software development). We’re releasing a vote later this week for Blacksky community members to offer their feedback. We look forward to hearing from you all.

Kill for gain, or shoot to maim / But we don't need a reason / The golden goose is on the loose / And never out of season

me and @zicklag.dev gonna stream in 3hrs our chats about permissioned community data on ATProto 😎 come say hi if you’re around! atmo.rsvp/p/meri.garde... (check back in for streamplace link)

humans have sensory organs & processing functions that, when combined w/ various resources, enable them to create novel concoctions of sensory stimulus and interactivity to achieve effects this is design, engineering, creativity the interfaces & methods of this discipline have always been in flux

what if we made a law that says if youre a billionaire you have a conflict of interest with the american people and therefore can't be president

I would have preferred to have the "draw the rest of the owl" meme on the cover, but this will do. Seems like it is on schedule, and we'll leave some typos so you know we didn't write it with AI.

ayooo bitches new blog post just dropped: Multi-agentic Software Development is a Distributed Systems Problem (AGI can't save you from it) Claude... Make No Mistakes. kirancodes.me/posts/log-di...

i've thinking about this for several days straight

it's coming

Thanks to everyone for engaging with the alpha of at.fund - exciting to see! Just released a number of upgrades based on a much improved lexicon, incorporating lessons from the last ~25 years of web payment signaling Still early days, and looking forward to more feedback 🙌 🚀

Make a people-directory network for BUILDERS, not “professionals”. As a participant in the open web I had a full portfolio of projects and contributions a decade before I did anything as a professional. Help me connect with fellow builders who share my interests. No feed needed, just matchmaking.

Im glad someone said the quiet part out loud

The website of @atproto.science needs the same treatment as @atmosphereconf.org got, namely the ability to log in with atproto. To ‘Join the ATScience Community’ people are encouraged to sign up via a form: forms.atproto.science/join Makes more sense to solicit signups via atproto.

my secret superpower is semble.so/explore

I would add to all that's already been said that the designs of online discourse matter a lot. Any algorithmic feed that sorts on individual preference will create polarization over time. arxiv.org/abs/1811.03341 much less about critical thinking and much more about group dynamics.

@cosmik.network whats the idea behind #Semblesidian

aaron swartz is the kind of person i think about when i say there are truly good people trying hard to make the world better in tech. sam altman is the kind of person i think about when i worry about the future of the aaron swartzes.

I get that it’s annoying for nerds to see aggrieved people misattribute any and all kinds of erroneous behavior to AI-tooling without any real causality whatsoever. But I do wish we could move past “look how dumb these [scared and angry] people are” to “we urgently need better sense-making tools”.

When @bsky.app goes down, the Atmosphere stays up

hope this helps!

this is my feelings on anything self hosted

i miss when ai was good :(

just setup monthly subscription

This is exactly why we set out to build out permissioned data. Our whole vision is around turning feeds into real Communities you’re part of rather than a distilled view of the firehose.
