This should be the biggest News story of the day

Instead we get crickets from the major news outlets.

Fascism 101, control the news media.

Resistance 101, get out and protest anyway.

We're going to win this, because if we don't, it'll be NAZI Germany all over again.

The @theerlef.bsky.social is preparing to officially apply to become a CNA (CVE Numbering Authority)! 🎉 As part of this, we’ve launched a website: cna.erlef.org.

We’d love help to make it look better—especially the "Issued CVEs" section. Design skills welcome!

Help us out! If we want to spread the message about Lambda Days 2025, where should we post about it?
@scalatimes.com, #Elixir Weekly, #Haskell Weekly... Who else should we b̶o̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ inform? 🤔

#functionalprogramming #lambdadays #callfortalks #clojure #erlang #elm #ocaml #scala

Another candidate (although a bit of a stretch) could be the proof assistant communities, like #coq, #agda, #lean, and #idris, though I'm not sure where to reach these communities.

It would be great to see @racket-lang.org submissions at #lambdadays! So maybe the #racketlang discourse?

@solnic.dev, has the pack reached the limit? It's just that I don't see my name.

It would be great if there was some automated way to sign up, though it would probably be misused by bots. Maybe the curation is a good thing?

Also sign me up! I don't post much, but I am the youngest ever speaker (and probably participant) at CodeBEAM and ElixirConf.

I do wish they did away with the post word limit thing.

Also about bots - I noticed after I liked 10 posts, I started getting followed by random accounts. These accounts seem to be genuine people, but still suspicious. Has this been an issue for others?

Hope @bsky.app maintains its charm.

Between all the blood boiling political crap, bots, ads, and incoherent styling on Twitter, Bluesky has been quite the refreshment.

The environment is friendly, the algorithm actually makes good suggestions (that don't raise your BP!), and you (at least I) generally feel good.

[2/3]

It's been 2 weeks since I set up my @bsky.app account. Mainly because of all the #Elixir folks raving about how nice bluesky is. (So #myelixirstatus I guess?)
