Wow, its so professional that the head of trust and safety is running away from the people trying to tell you they dont trust this site because it isnt safe. Youre a joke. Go get a different job so someone can actually do yours. I can get you in at a housekeeping job. Might be more your style

Lately I've been thinking a lot about Terry Pratchett's "Reaper Man" and AI. He was so ahead of his time in so many ways - or maybe squarely in his time but so many missed the very obvious signposts of where we were heading. Gonna be spoilers in this thread for a 25-year old book.

Anisota posts We do use AI within software development and moderation processes where appropriate, reasonable, and safe. This is true of Bluesky as well! Our Bluesky wrapped experience was original and not 'vibe coded' like that other person (they used ours 2 weeks ago and then made a cheap knockoff)

Person says thanks for clarifying

Anisota replies, No problem, happy to answer any questions! We are incredibly intentional and thoughtful about how we engage with AI, we are not in the camp that other person is in where it's all positivity and being 100% in on AI. There's a lot wrong with the way many AI companies, governments, etc are doing things.Available for hire

Product Engineer & AI Enablement

I have been building software with AI agents nearly every day for the past two years, and was a power user of AI coding tools before Claude Code existed. AI-native development is my expertise, and it spans Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, and Zed. Agents are in the loop from the first commit of every project. In early 2025 I started building Anisota, an indie Bluesky client that has grown to thousands of users, with AI-enabled features powered by Vercel's AI Gateway. More recently I’ve been growing a suite of AT Protocol developer tools that help other people build on the protocol with agents. Before this I spent a decade working in open-source protocols, B2B SaaS, and consumer apps with a focus on getting developers and non-developers to adopt tools they had not used before, through documentation, onboarding, developer relations, and community work.

Macklemore is a real case study in how you can be Kind of a Dumb Guy but still end up broadly on the right side of most things merely by being generally quite good-natured, because questions like "should trans people exist?" and "is it bad to do a genocide?" are actually really uncomplicated.
