JK Rowling, I curse you, from a distance. I will not personally harm you, because that's not the kind of person I am. But I wish you bad luck: that your bad karma eats at you, that your shows and books sell poorly, that your bad reputation catch up to you in the general public's eye.

Oh hell yeah. I /also/ wish ill to JK Rowling, and encourage everyone to join me in this. Bluesky can't suspend us all.

The iron triangle of the same origin paradigm:

1) Sensitive data
2) Network access
3) Untrusted code

Any given system can have at most two.

If you want to have all three, you'd need new laws of physics.

Cerberus creature design I did for my Patreon that represents various aspects of my creativity

-The wolf is inspiration
-The owl is hibernation
-The horse is motivation

Yes, I met a DIY FOSS Cyborg who lives in Emacs and Guix full-time. And YOU TOO can live such a life, if you dare!

I've seen a lot of discussions lately about handle verification, so I wrote about extending the "alsoKnownAs" feature of the did-plc spec. As it is currently written, the spec supports multiple handles and identities, and some (relatively) small changes could resolve some of the gripes.

👋 Welcome to Bsky, everyone!

I'm jumping on the starter pack bandwagon and making one for the static analysis folks around JavaScript/TypeScript. Projects like ESLint, TypeScript, and new fancy versions of them all.

Who else should go on it?

If you'd told the 15 or 25, or even 35 year-old me that I'd become someone who pumps his fist shouting "yes!" while reading an essay called "Infrastructure Regulation and the New Utilities" I don't think those words would even have made sense.

Anyway, your calling won't find you — go look for it.

Tolkien: listen, assholes, i got into fantasy for exactly 3 reasons:
Tolkien: sexy hobbit feet
Tolkien: feasts
Tolkien: and fuckin' tom bombadil!
Sanderson: tom bombadil?
Tolkien: he's only the most important thing in middle earth!
Tolkien: that capering buffoon of a wifeguy holds it all together!!

This is an amazing piece. Highly recommended for anyone who gets overwhelmed hearing about tech greed, AI hype, and enshittification. Don’t get deflated: get digital public infrastructure oriented! Im working on this every day: as @robin.berjon.com says, public infra needs to be…

Self Hosting Doesn't Need to be Selfish · Luma A single evening event to learn about self hosting, spend some time dev-ops-ing, and sharing what you've learned, managed, or are otherwise interested in. Self…

I'm co-hosting a hardware / collaborative hosting evening Wed, Sept 25th (tomorrow!) with @hyl.st‬ "Self Hosting Doesn't Need to Be Selfish"

I'll talk about Cloudron, Coolify, Unraid, and CoSocial Co-op

from the few records that have survived it appears that the "morning standup" was a beloved sacred ritual where each individual would take turns promising the others the same things they did the previous day

Ooofs. if it's /any/ small consolation, there's still people on the Fediverse (and even in the W3C spec community, like meee for example) that want to build bridges between communities & protocols instead. Which, I know, doesn't erase the vocal causes of drama.

Yeah, I'm super curious about what Bluesky's response will be!

But would it? :) would it really? <3

I'm really looking forward to @causalislands.com Berlin. First one in Europe.

They're all going to be a little unique and different.

And I'll get to see @matheus23.com who is going to come join.

P.S. There are not very many tickets left after we issue all the speaker ones...

If you’re interested in private data (it’s also a problem we need to solve with protocols) check out Automerge automerge.github.io and follow @expede.wtf who is working on an auth layer.

BlueSky has defined a microblogging data type (called a Lexicon in #ATProtocol) to make a Twitter clone app.

@frontpage.fyi is experimenting with a Hacker News clone that has link posts and long comments.

@smokesignal.events handles events and RSVPs.

@whtwnd.com has defined long form blogs.

Relevant to my interests, pre-order'd! :) <3

I think it's important to talk about tech approaches that center environmental care rather than ignore, dismiss, or trample over it.

Here's Solar Protocol, an 'intelligent network' that serves web content from whichever server is currently receiving the most sunlight:

The first 2023 W3C SocialWeb Incubation Community Group (SWICG) call will be this coming Fri, May 19, at 9am EST. details over at https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/first-2023-swicg-meeting-call-on-fri-may-19/3225
Reminder: these calls are open to everyone, don't have to join W3C or SWICG.

Updated my OpenAPI spec for atproto and bsky apis to resolve 98% of the outstanding issues. You can import the YAML files into Postman and have all of the callable endpoints without any config.

Just call createSession and set the jwt as bearer token.

Ooof, that is seriously rough. Hang in there. <3

@pfrazee.bsky.social, I'm impressed with your grace under stress. That's a very cogent and humble thread in response to the nostr post. <3
