Working on a thing

I forgot I was working on this

i just realized that the way i set this up i can easily write letters to myself in the future. the name ended up being more meaningful than i intended

the tak beginner tournament is coming up; i should polish my skills again

Hello, it is time for the Annual Tweet! Are you working on a COOL, NEAT, and perhaps even EXTREMELY WEIRD video game that'll be launching in 2026? If the answer is YES then let me know in the replies below! I want to get eyes on some coverage candidates before the year begins to consume us all.

wanted to start a journal, made something for it.

reading a record? i'll show you something interesting. the two types of data formats are json and sqlite. all data fall into these two categories

this data format could've been sqlite

officialelectric.itch.io/ruin this is sick.

just finished sh4dowsand.itch.io/terraformental or atleast the content that's currently out now. had a great time, very interesting mechanics. the fact that it's playable in browser is very nice, it can be a hassle to get games working on nixos

i was in the mood for some neovim configuring tonight (to procrastinate on my actual work) and there's like nothing to configure

chess programming is fun because you can go to the chess programming wiki to be like "ok what values should i use for a material evaluation" and then 3 minutes later be looking at the orbital period of mercury

bad news: all of my pcs will continue to be complete dogshit for the forseeable future due to extreme price hikes good news: i have a near infinite library of retro games to finish

i just walked "check out sidetrail" by @danabra.mov. i wish walking was real. sidetrail.app/@danabra.mov...

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

drafting a community manifesto on the power of atproto & how to get involved :) sharing for comments before launching a more public version (idea = put on a separate site w/ a way to sign w/ its own lexicon) also a nice *looseleaf* test case! please add comments with any feedback!

so it's working now but apparently as a side effect of cloudflare going down the handle on this account stopped working lmao

Smth smth @koldinium.com and @eikopf.com coded

been a while since i've been on this account; waffles, eh?

If you find yourself in need of a more dev oriented ATProto feed, @byarielm.fyi is maintaining one.

Cold winds blow through the shattered mesas. Remember that the black crows will fly to bless us With fields of melancholy and broken parts Cold wind blows through our shattered hearts.

YES YES YES YES YES YES

support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/und... wait this is crazy i had no idea.

If you are curious about what atproto is, what a PDS is, or what moving to a new PDS looks like. This may be a good starting place for you. This is my attempt at explaining some of the basics of Bluesky(atproto) in a less technical way.

THIS IS WHAT I'M SAYING

you become so much more of a light mode andy when you start going outside

ME, IN TEARS: you can't just say every single part of a computer system is a file UNIX, POINTING AT THE MOUSE: file

Recently there has been a lot of dividing & heated discourse about ActivityPub and AT Protocol. Yesterday at the Social Web CG meeting, I proposed releasing a statement on this discourse, you can read the full statement here: github.com/swicg/genera... #activitypub #atprotocol #atproto #SocialWeb

it's kind of funny that making an atproto index (i now refuse to call them appviews) is a bit like making a microservice, except all the other microservices are built by completely different organizations.

New blog post on how Streamplace indexes ATProto, with my take on some PDS additions we could make to improve the ecosystem!

okay so im trying something, so this is a custom feed that hydrates its own content, without relying on any appview to display it. for every new post that appears in the feed, it tracks its interactions to provide an independent and (best effort) hydrated getFeed and getPostThread apis

I've been paying for Bridgy Fed myself, out of pocket, since the beginning. I'm happy to, and I'll continue to, but it's not cheap. We have big ideas and plans for the future, and funding is our main blocker. Please help if you can!

Q: would atproto people be interested in language that compiles to a lexicon but is less verbose to write, like this: uh #atproto or something not sure how to put this post into the feeds that people use.

"a functional programmer and an imperative programmer walk into a bar. they spend the next 400 posts arguing about what counts as a side effect"

it really throws me off that all the BEAM languages are all imperative

i should make another github account

have people here used anytype? how do people feel about it?

Hello! A little video about Forth. More to come ?? www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZ4n...

i've finally got a new blogpost out!! this one talks about modern CSS, it's new features, and practical real world uses as usual, the visuals are css-only and have lots of cool interactivity and easter eggs :3 have fun! lyra.horse/blog/2025/08...

what's a good, minimal dependency, http client library for rust?

languages are the mind-killer. languages are the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my languages. I will permit them to pass over me and through me. Where the languages have gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

there is no safe language. there is no compiled language. there is no dynamically-typed language. its all powder to my eyes, for they seek only the truth.

misskey doesn't do this btw!

rollerskating is hard

i've always used green for work but this is too much green

sorry Rush Hour will have to wait, i just remembered Mr. Robot exists and i haven't seen it
