Do you know how insane the rebel alliance must’ve been about the force post trench run

I hadn't tried this app out until now, it is pretty decent! it pulls in a bunch of external book metadata and book reviews, so it doesn't feel dead/empty. a bunch of AT folks are using it daily. uses granular OAuth permission scopes.

We're at nearly 50 submissions! If you've been debating on a proposal then this is your sign. Especially interested in proposals on private data, moderation/trust/safety, or fighting disinformation to fill some interest gap. #ATProtocol #ATmosphereConf

man, this is going to save me so much time next spring

Because @labeler.hailey.at is fairly low stakes and is merely a community tool (not something we run in production), I've gone ahead and made the ruleset that drives it public. Hopefully serves as a good reference for writing Osprey rules.

great day for the Lions and Ravens to win

AVATAR 3: incredibly this was the first one of these I actually liked; they finally avoided repeating the worst exposition ever written, got weird enough with the imagery, and didn’t underuse the last one’s cast. the editing is weirdly aggressive in parts but it’s finally a real movie. skip 1&2 imo

good shit @chrisshank.com chrisshank.leaflet.pub/3maf7mbsi222...

this is the greatest feeling, when the cord box proves its utility to a family member

I think Olivia Nuzzi’s book would be much better if it were written as a sort of Pale Fire style insane testament of a journalist and unreliable narrator who — the reader only gradually realizes — believes that she keeps somehow flipping presidential elections through her personal life

Last week we released Tap, a tool to help you sync the Atmosphere, and it got me thinking about how revolutionary backfillability really is.

BREAKING NEWS: TikTok is changing hands to US investors on January 22 and the algorithm is being retrained! Thanks for being here and supporting @reedharmeyer.bsky.social and me ☺️ Time to get to work 🫡 @skylight.social #tiktokban #tiktoksale #news

Oh *sick*. Clicking on a post in a leaflet opens the whole thread. This is seriously cool

also it is so much EASIER to make comprehensive tests now if you know what you’re doing. in my three vibecoded projects i made the kind of tests i’d never bother to do before. and they saved my ass many times you do need to steer it to test the right things which requires some experience and taste

finally, a solution for the sophisticated warhammer player who wants to spotlight the crown jewel of his fine wine collection

movie I'd like to see is guy caught in a Groundhog Day style loop, starts going crazy, acquires all kinds of insane skills, lives nihilistically, and then one 'day' it just ends. and he has to suddenly deal with the aftermath of all the insane shit that he did that 'day'.

started writing my blog post a day early this week and got it all the way out the door because there's so much exciting news!!

It took us a long time to get to building contact imports for Bluesky because we wanted to do it in a privacy preserving way. Read more about how we did it in the blog post below!

you might think I'm crazy but I can't explain how quickly you can build an #atproto app with quickslice and graphql. no codegen, no custom indexes, no view defs, just join and ship!

our youngest cat won’t stop growing (I’m pretty sure he’s going to be 18+ lbs) and it’s funny to imagine how scared we’d be if he were our first. like, are they all supposed to be this massive?

First community labeler taking actions on atproto using @roost.tools’s Osprey. entire Ozone and Osprey stack running on a $50/m OVH machine, with up to seven days of full firehose backfill for investigating patterns and exploring the network.

one of my favorite reminders that "nope I'm just like this, the mustache is sincere, I actually think about the 70s all the time and can't help it" is that the charles grodin king kong really is my favorite one

Backed filled flashes.blue lexicons yesterday/last night locally with Tap. Did the search on blue.flashes.actor.profile. - Took over 12 hours - 19.6k total repos - 220gigs of data (includes firehose/exports) - 202k records (157k posts, 17.8k profiles, 27k portfolio) - sqlite db is 74.8mb

Has it really been a year? Our cofounder and CEO Tessa takes a look back at 1 year in the AT Protocol community—up now in two parts on her @leaflet.pub blog.

new tool drop: tools.slices.network/lexicon-vali... a lexicon validator, created with the same validation library that runs in quickslice (gleam compiles to erlang and js ✨) great for debugging schema/record validation issues or even for learning how lexicon validation works!

going down the Rob Reiner rabbit hole and I laughed just as loudly at this bit as I did the first time I saw it

For The New Yorker’s Cartoons & Puzzles issue, I wrote about Stephen Sondheim’s lifelong obsession with games and puzzles, and a delightful new book about it called "Matching Minds with Sondheim." This was the most fun I had writing anything all year. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

A clever strategy of implementing as much as possible without using *any* custom indexes. Aka creative procrastination to defer the core task: "... figuring out the most efficient way to structure the data to make the desired query emerge naturally from it."

streamplace now has PDS login for the sickos that use that

I've updated the OAuth permission scopes for @dropanchor.app to only ask for permissions to write blobs and Anchor specific lexicon, plus we need permission to read/delete community address lexicon for a while until all checkins are migrated to the new checkin lexicon (migration happens on login)

This new sushi place just opened that you have to try. The chef throws 400 rolls of sushi into a public swimming pool at the start of the night and everyone swims in after them. It’s fucking disgusting. So good.

i've always been very bullish on this being a tool that isnt just useful for moderation, but also for general network exploration, feed building, or other applications

so if you just clone down this repo and checkout the "hailey/clickhouse-experiment" branch, you can simply run "docker compose -f docker-compose.clickhouse.yaml -d" and start querying the firehose with osprey. there's an atproto consumer and everything in the compose. github.com/roostorg/osp...

This is an achewood plotline

this is soooo cooooool

the most underrated feature of atproto development is that if you delay your next version for a little while someone will make it 10x easier to implement

If you want to make a copy of the entire Bluesky network (or some subset of it, or some other app built on atproto), Tap is now the best way do do it. I hope this will enable more people do do, for example, interesting social network analysis research

We recorded our 2025 year-end wrap-up #podcast this morning. Look for the drop in your feed early next week!

We often use the word "publish" at Bluesky.. when we talk about how the protocol works, when we say you're publishing a post to the network.. I think it's because we see atproto like an open source manual for how to build your own printing press.

My crazy idea to cram all of the AT Protocol into a single deployable container. Works with SQLite, Postgres and potentially more data stores in the future. Steps are literally deploy container -> import your lexicons -> backfill -> build your app with the GraphQL APIs. quickslice.slices.network

Build your own ATProto Adventure! An atproto SvelteKit template. I needed a confidential oauth client, so I thought to abstract the start of the project to a template for anyone to use! I am hoping this will be one of the easiest ways for devs to start an atproto project w/ oauth demo.atpoke.xyz

the people of this great republic yearn for locomotive transport

We just released Tap, a tool designed to handle the hard parts of repo synchronization, so you can focus on building your application. It's now easier than ever to stay up to date with Atmosphere records for dev, data analysis, or any other task at hand! docs.bsky.app/blog/introdu...
