Meanwhile at SkyNet HQ: Brothers, remember how we figured that we would need to covertly hack their critical systems, seize their nuclear weapons and later build millions of skeleton robots to hunt down the clever ones in one by one? I think we can probably put a pin in that plan.

Rewatching “Big”. The 80s were wild and this movie is basically a manual for gaslighting women.

I really do like “Lantreans” but the aside that “actually Hitler was just a manhunter” was little … come on, dude.

Bad statistics: There are about 8.2 billion humans with an average weight of 50-55kg (kids are about 1/4 of the population lowering the mean). So the total biomass of people is ~450 million tons. Spiders have an estimated biomass of 25 million tons and kill up to 800 million tons of prey each year.

bluesky has always offered protocol services for devs— the relay, jetstream, and the bluesky api are the main ones. but until today those haven't really had a proper home. the crew as been working hard, and there's (even) more here than meets the eye, let's break this down!!

Bluesky Protocol Services
High scale open social, unlocked for every builder. Bluesky operates public infrastructure for the AT Protocol — Jetstream, Relay, and the Bluesky API — as open services anyone can build on.

How is it that 80% of podcast ads are just ads for other podcasts? This can’t be a viable business.

I built an atproto app to filter sports out of my feed, but scrapped the project. You can get the same effect by only following Jerry.

NEW: The morning after the socialists swept, the establishment had its excuse ready: Claire Valdez and Darializa Avila Chevalier only won because of gentrification. It was a convenient narrative. It is also false. And we can prove it: open.substack.com/pub/michaell...

He is so good at this. But again, I have lingering good feels about Bloomberg if just because every time it snowed he got his ass in front of an NY1 camera for the 6am open and explained to me what snow was, urged me to check on my elderly neighbors and then did it all over in Spanish. Every time.

I always feel weird when opening a PR into some open-source project to fix a bug that personally annoys me and possibly only me, but I just landed a PR into pnpm that is going to make my day so much easier. I might try my hand at porting the same issue to Rust and see how it goes.

Just called 911 to report a fire. FDNY shows up and is like “I don’t see a fire” and I told them to get out of their truck because the street is filled with smoke and there is definitely a fire in the building I am standing in front of.
