Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 09/10/20261st step when diagnosing friends' or in-laws' slow WiFi (and you're on BlueSky so I know you're the one they ask) is to find and unplug every little smart device in the house. Cheap wifi outlets are the worst offenders. 000
Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 07/09/2026.@pfrazee.com is mostly right in this thread, but this framing feels a bit off. Horses are great and people experience joy riding them! Hand coding will remain irresistible fun! The highway analogy is apt if you are on a team with AI adopters--refusers are not going to help that team. 100

Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 24/07/2026One thing #floydfest has taught me over the years is that genre in music is a lot like medium in visual arts. You can express all the feelings in rock, country, bluegrass, blues, metal, etc as if they are watercolor or oil or marble or chalk. 200

Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 10/07/2026I do not understand Belgium's early subs in this game and now seems really ill advised in light of Courtois 010
Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 10/07/2026I try so hard to cultivate summoning the words "so what do you think you'll do about that?" It's very hard to unlearn your own expectation of having an immediate answer for anything your kid throws at you but seeing how they work through challenges themselves is priceless and, after all, is THE JOB 132
Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Bosnia AND Herzegovina!? In this economy?!?* * this has been an official Bluesky skeet for #USMNT 000

Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 28/06/2026Nashville in the summer of 2026 is live music with a singer from the audience in front of a TV screen showing world cup soccer and tornado warnings 010
Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 25/06/2026American airlines making this flight from Charlotte to Nashville seem like a road trip by starting out saying the fuel is low and the lav is broken so I guess we're gonna need to stop at Sheetz along the way 001
Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Okay yes I'm searching the World Cup a lot but you may be getting presumptuous about my sports tastes, Google 000

Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Maybe an underappreciated additional harm that monopolistic, enshittified platforms inflict: they give many people the impression that this is the *only possible* version of that type of system. 000
Reposted by Andy JenkinsAnil Dash @anildash.com · 16/06/2026More broadly, are you aware that there is an entire field of people who are professionals in the practice of understanding how social networks function, and how to design them for social good? That *most* social platforms are healthy — the giant fascist networks are the dangerous exception? 413516
Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 15/06/2026This is so funny to me bc I grew up near Philly (West Chester) and even though I can get Tastycakes at the local grocery chain in Charlotte, NC I refuse to b/c my heart says Tastycakes are not authentic unless you buy them at Wawa 000
Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 14/06/2026I find GIMP hard to use. It's not a diss on GIMP, and I'm pretty good at most normal life skills. It's a very full featured image manipulation program and I use it about once every 3 months. Yes it's mostly clicking on pictures but there are a lot of them and their behavior is not always obvious. 010

Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 07/06/2026Men, if you've been chopping jalapenos, wash your hands BEFORE you use the restroom. Please don't ask me how I know. 110
Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 04/06/2026Yes this is the least important thing about this photo but...it's killing me that they've got the Empire State Building as taller than the Willis Tower, because they are comparing the with-antennas height of the former to the without for the latter. Like-for-like Willis is taller. 000

Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 27/05/2026Google just deprecated one of its leading LLMs (2.5-Flash) while its replacement (3.5-Flash) costs 4x as much. The AI bubble burst is going to feel more like a squeeze to anyone who's gotten dependent on these guys Gemini-2.5-Flash: $0.30/M in // $2.5/M out Gemini-3.5-Flash: $1.5/M in // $9/M out 200

Andy Jenkins @bojenk.bsky.social · 26/05/2026When the market fails to adequately provide a good or service that we the people need, the standard for success of the govt is not whether it "works" relative to the market (which sucks in the situation, remember?) See also: USPS, public education, and other govt services that don't need to make $$$ 010
