took a break from actual programming last night and managed to fix my grafana dashboard for nginx stuff

i found about another effort to implement an appview in rust because of a shitpost god damn it

made an appview that only has me on it social.shatteredsky.net/profile/quil...

i don't like comments like this because they ignore the fact that the infrastructure needed for this is still in its infancy. credible exit cannot exist without this infrastructure in place, so T&S here needs to actually *listen* to constructive criticism and protect marginalized groups until then

i am at the point in my atproto project where i either need to spin up private atproto infra or make a test account lol

perfect really is the enemy of the good. procrastinating too long getting certain stuff done on projects cause i spent too long obsessing over making them "perfect". realised they don't have to be perfect, sat down and wrote some code, and now they exist when they previously did not

instead of nginx they should call it slenderx and instead of serving your pages it should collect your pages

decided against this as the data plane has its own protocol i'd have to somehow reimplement in rust not a huge deal. just means i wont be able to hook social-app up to it until much later

excited to share that we are following through on our earlier commitments and putting together an independent+neutral organization to house the DID PLC system, includes the directory service

in 24 hours we had bluesky directly address two of the biggest problems with atproto rn what the fuck is happening

okay so something i noticed looking at the reference appview is the dataplane being its own service separate from the main api server itself so now i wonder if i should shift my focus to writing a much more lightweight dataplane and having the reference appview use that

sql is kind of neat actually, and my prior frustrations were entirely a skill issue

omg we’re on the official git-scm.com landing page 🥹

it'd be absolutely amazing if i could somehow push sqlite far enough to handle the load of a smaller appview

heads up: in case you notice your apple devices running hotter after the new Liquid Glass update, don't worry! this is simply the heat leakage from the kiln installed in your device that's used to liquify the glass

i think i just worked out a pretty solid design for a partial appview * pick 20k accounts (configurable) from followees of followees (not followers) * index *every* incoming and outgoing interaction involving those 20k accounts * implement bsky client api like normal on top of this limited data

i wonder if its feasible to make a partial appview by dividing the firehose into chunks and pruning content outside of your network

i finally have automated backups for my home directory after way too long lol

You should say what the alternatives are so people understand what you mean by this. Not that they should go back to X, but that they can migrate to PDS.witchcraft.systems, selfhosted.social, blacksky.app, @transrights.northsky.social They can use zeppelin.social, blacksky.community, deer.social

i haven't actually used Bluesky in months so what Jay's saying is actually true, you can in fact leave and choose an alternative

i think bluesky would do everyone a favor if they better communicated this platform's decentralized nature and made it easier for people to migrate their account somewhere else my account hasn't been with bluesky since i joined. its been on a self hosted pds from day 1 and most people can't tell

sqrk! :3

they should put dave in charge of the plc directory

welcome back google cardboard, i guess

i need to try tangled.sh out at some point

political violence is a symptom of a failing system

if any of my mutuals are looking to migrate their account off of bluesky's pds, you are more than welcome to ask me for an invite code for my pds to migrate i try my absolute hardest to keep it running since i depend on it myself and will help you migrate back off of it if things ever go to shit

migrate your accounts

someone told me i broke their feed generator when i did my domain swap lmfao

test post

plc operations are legitimately very sketchy to do holy shit

im doing a domain change on my pds and this involves doing some plc updates. before i brick my accounts is there a good way to generate and add a rotation key

i am a very silly individual

i need to finish rewriting my discord bot i have an easily extendable architecture for it now and simply need to add the rest of the features back in

nix does not fix this

with everything going on right now i just want to say @rude1.blacksky.team is one of the most important people in the atproto community right now working on tools and a scalable space for marginalized groups is no easy feat and i don't even want to know how many hours of work it took to get here

i'm not even black but i'm *highly* considering swapping over to blacksky's client after that downright horrible pr move

reminder that bsky.team only has jurisdiction over what happens on their servers. If you self-host or are hosted by blacksky.app they cannot remove your posts. they can hide it on bsky.app but it will still be up elsewhere. signups and migrations are open.

something actually happened

taking my estradiol shot in the neck today in solidarity with charlie kirk

update: its because it was a skill issue i took the 1 hour to learn how to actually write some basic queries and properly manage a schema and am having a much better time using it

normalize being silly
