It’s not great, I can tell you that! Exhausting to say the least

Very nice! 🙌 We built a very similar thing for @transistor.fm awhile back. Works really well.

I have 3 Audible credits I totally forgot about. Who’s got some great audiobook recommendations? I mostly read, but sometimes do audiobooks to zone out on long runs.

Yeah, they’re not always as good as the text. I’ll stick to that. Thanks for the honest assessment

@jeffcannata.bsky.social random question for ya as you seem to be in the know: are the Malazan audiobooks good? I have yet to start the series but I’ve owned book one for 6 years! Also, hello from Colorado 👋

Really enjoy working with atproto. Level of detail in the JSON is fantastic and nicely structured! Also moderation is sorta baked in.

This was a fun one to build out! Bluesky/atproto is quite nice to work with 🦋

Yeah I love it. Quality is amazing. Plus, it’s not Spotify!

Hands-down the best job (and the longest) I've ever had! Grateful every day to be able to work on this with @justinjackson.ca and our incredible (small) team. 6+ years on, I still get to write code daily. We have amazing customers and can't thank them enough for sticking with us and trusting us.

You forgot the part about me initially saying no (for months) and wanting to do it all solo because of being burned previously. glad I change my mind on that!

Inside Llewyn Davis ends right where A Complete Unknown begins. It’s the fictional prequel, and arguably the better film. But both are great.

Oh, yeah. I was more referring the bit of docs that seems to indicate that bulk sending limits are tied to the sending rate limit? “The number of destinations you can contact in a single call to the v2 API may be limited by your account’s maximum sending rate.”

Jon Buda @jonbuda.com · 26/12/2024
Bummer, we were going to look into using this at some point. You can maybe request an increase of your max sending rate?

for the longest time I loved running without music or anything and just enjoyed being outside and soaking up my surroundings. not sure what changed! now I just want to zone out and go 🤷‍♂️

Really been enjoying audiobooks while running lately. Great for zoning out on longer runs. Used to run with music, then nothing for awhile, then podcasts. Now audiobooks. Currently loving "The First Law Trilogy" from @joeabercrombie.com. Fantastic story, and the narration is top-notch.

ah yes, I poked around with didkit shortly after and found what I needed! wiring things together and it's starting to make more sense. lots of moving parts, but I _think_ I'm starting to understand it.

These are fantastic. Working with them now and making progress. Hopefully have feedback/PRs as well. Is it possible to somehow resolve the PDS endpoint that a user should use for authenticated requests? the README references "boletus.us-west.host.bsky.network" but where does that come from?

Oh, excellent! Will dig in

Has anyone built a working OAuth flow for Bluesky/atproto in Ruby/Rails, or do I have to hack this together myself? It's definitely more involved that most OAuth implementations, and we'd really rather not just store people's Bluesky passwords, like most apps seem to be doing.

Don't forget about weirdos like me who enjoy the challenge of fixing a thing, but don't want to change careers! 😆 My brother is the same way. Probably got it from my Dad and Grandpa. Then again, I also have my limits.

Sublime Text. Never quite made the leap to VS Code. Muscle memory for keyboard shortcuts and all that.

haha. don't let me stop you! still a nice machine. though I guess waiting for a overhauled redesign of the entire laptop might be nice, whenever that happens.

About a month in with this MacBook M4 Pro and I will say, this nano-texture screen is fantastic. Also cannot meaningfully notice a speed difference between my old M1 Pro, which probably speaks more to how great the M1 was when it came out. That and all I really do is write code in a text editor 🤷‍♂️

bit of a mess honestly. removing the prefix will change the audio url, and for hosts using passthrough, Spotify triggers a re-download of any episode that was downloaded to a device, with no way of knowing it's a re-download. it's silly, and frustrating, and Spotify doesn't have an answer 🤷‍♂️

That seems not legal! But also dumb
