I’m so brainrotted i thought this was talking about some coding benchmark and token efficiency of the Opus model

Is there a nice webapp/app for making custom apple wallet passes? I feel like I had a webapp bookmarked at some point in the past but I can’t remember/find it

When you see a funny message the road before you splits into 2: laugh at the message or reply with another funny message. You can only do one of these

Cursed knowledge: atproto handle subdomains can have hyphens, but the last part of an NSID cannot 💀

how do we feel about a discord clone where ur messages are on your PDS 👹
MVP of a chat webapp using atproto. There's two messages simulating discord. The URL has a query param for `hintChannelOwner`.

Any #nix users getting HTTP 504 errors from GitHub api endpoints? Just trying to run nix commands and I don't have anything funky networking-wise...

Is there *any* react-compatible fullstack framework that won't be vaporware within a decade? NextJS seemed to be that for a few years but they ruined it with an annual major release that was backwards-incompatible

Heartbreaking: two related but very distinct technical terms are starting to become used interchangeably (atproto devs calling user repos “PDS”) 💔

Wrote about a demo where I pull a Mii from a PDS and render it in the browser

@beliapp.bsky.social can you integrate with atproto plsss

Is there an atproto library for creating "fake" user repos? Kinda like how bridgy-fed creates fake users to implement bridging with mastodon

A new TOML-like language could be easily better by stripping out non-“Minimal” parts of TOML. Off of the top of my head I think inline tables should be removed

A trick I just learned to debug my dokuwiki config more easily on NixOS: `nix-store -q --tree /run/current-system | grep dokuwiki`, since it's not easy to tell where the built confs live

My hot take is that NixOS service modules aren't nearly as popular as they should be because although they expose a really nice API for configuring services, you can't bake these configurations into a docker image directly since they depend on systemd

This is exactly what @nintendousa.bsky.social and @kirby-air-rider.bsky.social are, but with much more tooling around it so it can be crowdsourced

My external keyboard that's plugged into my macbook becomes responsive like 5 seconds before the laptop keyboard becomes responsive ??? What is going on

There needs to be something like the Bridgy Fed bot, but with crowdsourced content. For example, there's never going to be a bridge with Twitter Tweets; it'd need to be crowdsourced (or manually copied over by the author) into a proxy user repo for that external account.

Maybe everyone should be using a monorepo. A lot of my own sideprojects depend on each other, so why mess with git submodules when they can just be in the same polyglot repo?

I wish there was an #atproto action-to-api lookup for popular libararies like the @/atproto and @/atcute npm packages. This lookup of knowing what you want to do → the right library code to call feels like it should be a solved problem, but library docs are almost always in the reverse direction 😩

Is it possible to edit a post on bsky by editing its record? - If you see this, it doesn't seem possible.

So many decisions come with pros and cons. I want to use the NixOS service modules bc they’re so easy to configure, but afaik you can’t run systemd in containers on k8s properly💔

I'm pretty sure you can impersonate a handle in atproto, as long as you can spoof DNS records
starptr.leaflet.pub
Atproto handles might be susceptible to impersonation
Proving you are who you say you are isn't enough

Atproto lexicons remind me of Radicle's COB types. If you squint a bit, they're pretty much the same thing. Unlike atproto records though, COBs are replicated via a gossip protocol, so IIUC they can't really be deleted. I kinda like this approach better though; user data seems more resilient

Guys I finally figured out why atproto needs bidirectional resolution
starptr.leaflet.pub
What the heck is a bidirectional resolution?
Why do I need to confirm something twice??

This feels like the kind of problem devenv.sh could solve... My favorite dev setup I've been using for the past ~2 years for any new side project is devenv + nix flake. I feel like nix gets a bad rep by NodeJS devs, but devenv sidesteps the nix build ecosystem and focuses solely on the dev tooling

Hot tip on using a 1GB DigitalOcean Droplet as a NixOS vps without running out of memory on every `nixos-rebuild` !!

Provisioning a NixOS vps cheaply
You don’t always need a lot of memory to build a configuration

For some reason, leaflets aren't saved to the author's repo, with some exception

A surprising behavior of leaflets
Leaflets are sometimes not stored on my PDS
