Visited a recreation of Cybersyn — the Chilean socialist internet that predates the web. It had programs to communicate with a decentralized network of telex machines at factories (Cybernet), economic simulators (CHECO & Cyberstride), and this control room Goal was to control the economy with clicks

Excited to announce that the pre-order is available for Black Identities and Media in the Twenty-First Century via @lsupress.bsky.social ! I have a chapter inspired by @hystericalblkns.bsky.social’s In the Wake titled Digital Wake Work! This is my first book chapter! lsupress.org/978080718619...

Today I officially migrated from @bsky.app PDS to @blackskyweb.xyz, learned about atproto rotation keys, and launched my personal website, angeldejesus.com. 😆

NYC fire commissioner just resigned cuz Mamdani won now where’s the mass resigns from the nypd?!?

If you’re in Barcelona 🇪🇸 for #MozFest, swing by the @blackskyweb.xyz booth on Friday, say hi, and get a free Blacksky Algorithms sticker mzf.st/2133

@torrho.blacksky.team talking @blackskyweb.xyz at #IETF124

@torrho.blacksky.team talks about @blackskyweb.xyz #ietf124 #ATProtocol #Rust #OpenSource

i’m here for us only. #addtoblacksky

this is a *ton* of work. very impressed, and I think it will really pay off in the long run, in terms of having a codebase that folks can understand, operate, and hack on

High ROI on that Clear+ membership rn

FTR the app-view is up and has been for a few weeks. Ingesting terabytes of social media data is not trivial. I've worked to re-implement some experimental work by Divy into rsky-ingester, rsky-backfiller, and rsky-indexer When it's production ready, it'll move off of staging.blacksky.community

gun license renewal process which is issued by the nypd includes explaining to the nypd why I was arrested by the nypd for (peacefully) protesting the nypd at nypd headquarters day in the life

Letter from the department of income tax 🫣 … It’s an inflation refund check >>>

Now this is something!!!!!! IETF has been around almost 40 years. It's is based on Layer 3/4 communications aka the TCP/IP protocol suite. Without TCP/IP nothing on the internet or local networks works very well if at all. Bravo to Rudy and crew for this!.

Legendary to see Blacksky represented at the IETF (internet engineering task force) They’re the architects of the modern internet who designed the standards of how computers talk to each other TY @torrho.blacksky.team for representing our team as atproto works through the standardization process

if Blacksky don’t like it, whatchu gon’ do bout it.

Rent too high Groceries too high These folks audacity are too high

#OpenSource 🍻 it's wild how getting that small fix approved you submitted can make you feel! especially if you're already a passionate user - contributing to that open source project is just one way you can get directly involved and support its development

I love following along as Rudy takes concepts from tech and makes metaphors using the language of regular (non-tech) folks.

I love the radically open and honest way the Blacksky Algorithms team conducts itself. They’re working as hard as possible to fully live & realize what open source protocols & decentralization can do to empower users.

If the phrase `open source` means nothing to you imagine if your favorite app worked like Wikipedia and anyone could come along and edit it that's how the code for Blacksky works anyone can edit it it's also how our docs work; if you think something's missing or could be improved, change it

Hi! It's your favorite Community Safety & Support Steward @ Blacksky! We recently updated our docs.blacksky.community website with new documents based on your feedback via Blacksky People's Assembly. This thread has the latest drops -- Blacksky Community Guidelines & Blacksky Moderation and Labeler!

99 problems and they've all been assigned Fibonacci numbers and added to the backlog.

PEORIA, Ill. (AP) — Illinois deputy found guilty of murder in the shooting of Sonya Massey, a Black woman who called 911 asking for help.

There's a weird bug happening on the Bluesky appview for Blacksky hosted accounts Using our app-view you can see your posts and profile updates here staging.blacksky.community/profile/did:... (app-view still in development, pls ignore other bugs) @pfrazee.com @bnewbold.net any idea what's happening

me every time someone finds something I'm building before it's really ready yet

Did a presentation at Brown University demoing Blacksky and this was the top post on the trending feed.

I’m the coder friend in this story and i endorse this message.

Take me back.

me: the AT website refresh doesn't have to look amazing team: yeah but it be at least as cool as the blacksky website me: shit

If anyone knows of a tattoo artist with these similar vibes please let me know. Looking to get a cyberpunk-inspired arm sleeve or back tattoo. I’m based in Brooklyn but willing to travel (North America) for the right artist at this point.

😭😭😭

We stopped having tycoons and started having “founders”. Society is poorer for it.

There was already a *lot* going on with Bluesky, and now it's under even more pressure. I wrote about how I think about moderation, affordances, expectations, human needs, and powerful trolls for @techpolicypress.bsky.social www.techpolicy.press/trump-admini...

Hold on, lemme check my IG DMs, LinkedIn mail, gmail, multiple discord servers, Discourse, slack workspaces, WhatsApp, Messenger, iMessage, Germ, Session, Matrix, signal, IRC, GitHub issues and PRs, Clickup, and bsky DMs and get back to you

Slowly getting there. The next version of @skeetsapp.com will let you set custom proxy headers so that you can use other AppViews - like that of @blackskyweb.xyz CC @rude1.blacksky.team

looking forward to speaking at Better World by Design this weekend in Rhode Island. “Better World by Design is a student-led initiative at Brown University and Rhode Island School of Design that celebrates the interdisciplinary collaboration between designers, educators, innovators, and learners.”

This is such a big deal. Fashion houses are increasingly white and male. Her pieces in the Superfine exhibit were so good.

Aight #BlackSky fam, the illustrious @bridgettodd.bsky.social interviewed @rude1.blacksky.team for There Are No Girls on the Internet, go and listen! #TANGOTI

> Black founders captured just 0.42% of the $69.9 billion in U.S. venture capital deployed in Q2 From 1.5% in 2020 to 0.4% -- Given these statistics, it's rational for me to deprioritize VCs and focus my energy on funding paths where I face fewer systemic barriers. ft. @dominicmadori.bsky.social

Instructions unclear - you wanted more zombie content, yes?

Just made the blacksky migration and y’all should too. The tektite.cc tool made it very easy. Thank you @rude1.blacksky.team !

Blacksky Algorithms == Hard Decentralization.

It's here! PDS MOOver now supports automated backups and restores that anyone can use! This also includes adversarial account migrations! pdsmoover.com

Yes this is a public platform. But sometimes it’s public like a restaurant is public. If I’m talking to the folks at my table and you hear it, that doesn’t mean you’re supposed to just join my table. And you can’t get mad when you don’t get my table’s references.
