hello devs!! say hi to @atproto.com 👋 we’ll be using this account to share *your projects* that you’re building on top of atproto! the bluesky team also gets into some pretty interesting technical convos deep in the replies, and @atproto.com can broadcast that info further 🗣️

Wait so apparently the real-life bits of Disney’s TRON were filmed in Vancouver? I swear this is completely unrelated to the fact that I’m moving there on Monday

some fun bluesky weekend hacking ideas (feel free to steal): - Google alerts for bluesky posts (i.e. get notified when someone posts about X) - Related people search (i.e. embed a user’s name, bio, last N tweets) - Serverless runtime for post sinks (i.e. upload JS snippet, called on every new post)

hot take: the bluesky app icon should remain a blue sky (don’t get me wrong, butterflies are cool)

i didn’t realize how easy it is to build bluesky bots, really neat stuff. maybe i’ll try to do a stream when less busy exploring the protocol more

i’m so excited for custom feeds within bluesky. first order of business? block all posts that have greater than 80% semantic similarity to “AI”, “ChatGPT”, etc… bluesky is a happy and wonderful place, and is my only escape from a constant stream of AI stuff. will work hard to keep it that way!

broke: “this is such an expensive query”, “too many joins”, “do we need a covering index?”, “how can we simplify this?” woke: “databases are fast”, “6 joins? fuck it”, “use a bigger machine if it’s slow”

no better way to start the morning then hopping into a zoom call with 3 temporal engineers and screen sharing as they rip my code to shreds all jokes aside, was a lot of fun & turns out I know a lot less about temporal than I thought I did

played around with some new toys from google this morning, service weaver is cool! practical? ehh, maybe if you’re hyper-invested in GCP ecosystem.

i generally approach ai stuff with a lot of optimism, but i’m really scared for the time when we start using dopamine/attention as the reward function tiktok basically doing this already, will get much worse with generated vids. scared of this future:
