SDFC is a new team. First year was 2025. They play a very fun brand of soccer and would be my pick. LA Galaxy brought forward in the US by signing Beckham, but haven't done much since. LAFC has sick colors.

The Atmosphere is a new open network of apps and services that all work together. It's like truly owning your Google Account. Instead of every app being its own walled garden, Atmosphere apps share a common foundation, so you only need one account to use them all, and they can easily share data.

After thinking about this question all weekend, I think my favorite candidate is the alchemical symbol for air: 🜁 It’s connotes both atmosphere and “transfer”. It’s a standard Unicode character. It references a capital “A.” And it’s very simple, which feels appropriate for a protocol, like 🌐 or 🛜.

The alchemical symbol for air, a triangle pointing up crossed by a horizontal line.

“There’s a lot of unnecessary anger at people who don’t look like us, and pray like us, and walk like us, and cheer like us. In Lawrence, we are wide open to embracing something new.” On the love affair between Lawrence and Algeria for The Guardian: www.theguardian.com/football/202...

How Algeria won over a Kansas town – and became the World Cup’s unlikeliest love affair

Lawrence, a college town of about 100,000 in northeastern Kansas, has embraced Les Fennecs with a fervor that has surprised everyone but the people who live there

All your stuff is great but I really liked this one, Casey!

fwiw this is how I think about it too. Sean Carroll Mindscape podcast talks about this quite a bit as he is a fan of the Many Worlds Interpretation.

This is giving me some interesting thoughts, thanks for sharing. I don't think it'll be wholesale but it's pretty easy to argue we're at the beginning of a decline in literacy and not the middle or end.

these look so slick. love your style

I was sitting on a cliff overlooking the Colorado River this afternoon and I could hear 3 (boat?) engines rumbling in the distance despite not being able to see any of them. It will be awful to have a constant drone buzz.

Jimmy: And they reject that as a good idea. I disagree. I think it's a great idea. and later Jimmy: There's a great paper on 'Data Abstraction Revisited' by William Cook that maybe we should cover at some point. the people want to hear it.

Ivan: People say "One way that functional programming can handle this is by making a Giant Ball of State and then passing it into every function and have that function change whatever part of the GBoS that it needs to and then return that GBoS.

What do streets think about being able to read long form content / blogs from within blacksky.community (powered by standard.site) @pckt.blog @leaflet.pub @offprint.app in the below rough demo.

perfect *illustration what the post is getting at.

Jacob Pfeifer — designer working on Loam.

Maybe identity isn't the right word. What do we call a person who has an atmosphere account? User has to go. The atmosphere is about giving us agency. Maybe it's time for operator. pfeif.garden/ operator[uuid]/ post [uuid]

Maybe this is why everyone is having so much trouble figuring out what to call "sign in with your atmosphere id" Maybe in the atmosphere you shouldn't have a "profile" page you should have an "identity" page.

We're all just looking at json files.

I just switched to blacksky a few hours ago and I want to thank the designer for making the blacksky url a perfect explanation of what the post is trying to explain lol. blacksky.community /profile:did:[uuid for atmosphere idenity] /post/[uuid for post] *universally unique identifier

i think this maybe deserves a blogpost. atproto is a protocol for publishing and aggregating JSON with links. “accidentally” this happens to be enough for many types for social apps

Really cool idea 🤯 - Install this web font - Just add plain text to the DOM - It renders a chart using font ligatures No JS, no hydration FOUC franktisellano.github.io/datatype/

Whoever is doing the copywriting over at @eurosky.social continues to slam dunk. We don’t need a bunch of new perfect nouns for things we already have perfectly good vocab for.

I just stayed at a hotel that had such awful cool lighting that we made a more substantial shade using a spare pillow case lol

Hi! I was chatting with @chrisshank.com and he pointed me to you and habitat network! Super cool! Loved your talk. I'm in the middle of prototyping something with automerge and keyhive that is trying to make progress on the same problems. Looking forward to exploring more of what you're building!

⭐ New talk! Watch / read / visually skim here: andymatuschak.org/tat Coding agents might help us finally break out of two cages: the app model, which traps computing in one-size-fits-all silos; and programming as a specialization, which has crowded out cultures of imagination and domain insight.

'A simple (perfect) life' - my spring landscape is finally finished! An apple orchard in bloom, old railway, sheep with their lambs and an allotment being prepared for growing :) Zoom in to see all the other tiny details too... I think this might be my favourite aerial embroidery I've ever done!
