I wish SpaceX wasn't an Elon Musk thing. It's genuinely impressive but with his name attached I just can't like it.

I made it to a starter pack. 🥳

I delved deep into GeoTIFF today. Wrote a script to convert a 32-bit GeoTIFF into 8-bit PNG without losing data. I… think… it works? The next part I want to do is even harder!

I just stumbled across this "Bug Finder" feature in Cursor (hidden behind a beta flag). Has anyone tried it yet?

This election has really allowed a huge number of tech bros (and they have all been men) to go mask off about their support for Trump. Twitter/X is almost impossible to use now. Either they're actively supporting authoritarianism, or they're cheering it on with no idea of what it means.

There is no easy answer to censorship by intimidation, especially in a country like Turkey that has a hostage-taking law requiring platforms to have local staff. But the mealy-mouthed “some content” from the Public Policy handle is a shameful failure to provide any transparency or accountability.

And just like that, Bluesky lost its shine. 😔

I'm not a big fan of these "follow everyone" accounts.

Skypulse now has dark mode! ✨ Watch everything happening on Bluesky in real time via the firehose. 👉 skypulse.dvy.io I'm thinking of open-sourcing the code. Would this be beneficial?

I've created a dashboard to watch the Bluesky firehose — also known as everything happening on Bluesky. (At busy times of the day it gets very busy!) There are plenty of features and improvements I want to add to it, but for now feel free to play with it here: skypulse.dvy.io

If you're looking for "how has Elon Musk changed Twitter" in a nutshell... Prominent anti-trans accounts have gone from being suspended under Twitter's "hateful conduct" policy to getting free promotion at the top of the Notifications feed for people who don't even follow them.

I just woke up from a dream where I had 3 Bluesky invites, and I was trying to figure out how to prioritise who to send them to. I wish I was joking. 🫠

Folks are asking about mutes and blocks - are they public or not? The wonderfully helpful @pfrazee.com answered this recently! ❌ Mutes are NOT public and won't be. ✅ Blocks ARE public and will remain so! But please don't let this stop you from doing what you need to do for YOUR account 🩵

I'm glad Jack is finally acknowledging the dumpster fire that is The Bird App since Musk took over, but his argument seems to be "There was nothing we could do — public companies are for sale 🤷🏻‍♂️". OK, but he literally said "Elon is the singular solution I trust" at the time. He wanted it to happen.

Blocks on Bluesky are public, just FYI.

Hello, friends. Twitter has tweeters… what are we? Blueys?
