Fielding a lot of questions about this recently

Iroh fixes this

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

We’ve been awarded a $300K non-dilutive grant, and I’m insanely proud of our team for pulling this off. More to come soon!

🚨 TODAY’S THE DAY 📚 After years of work, my new book HYPERSCALE is finally on bookshelves! It chronicles the data center boom just as the backlash is reaching a fever pitch. Get your copy today: hyperscalebook.com

Chris has been testing out Zena with his WASI component model polyfill, and now I have to return the favor and test his polyfill out! This looks amazing! Not enough Wasm runtimes support the component model yet, and this brings them to the future. 🚀

We'll be doing first dialog community call on October 27. If you have any interest in dialog please stop by luma.com/ony3ob91

However much you loathe Gavin Newsom it's not nearly enough.

Youre worried about AI taking over the world you should be worried about billionares and the far right.

Just p2p replicated dialog db with @cdata.earth over via @iroh.computer ✨It feels pretty realtime

The cool menu of the stalwart of many an anime fan of the early 2000s' DVD collection: Macross Plus: The Ultimate Edition. (Movie disc)

New blog post on zena-lang.dev: Designing a Programming Language for the AI Era zena-lang.dev/blog/2026/09... Includes why I think a language good for humans and WebAssembly is good for AI, and why Zena is a project that's optimistic that humans have a place in software development.

Loving ability to see members of the space in @tonk.xyz which also reflect topology of responsibilities. It also happens to be a representation of @ucan.xyz delegations chains. Space delegated ownership to founder who then delegated access to other members

i wanna go back

my sale is about to end, do you need it to stay up a few more days? let me know in the comments, like and subscribe (?) itch.io/s/181080/ok-...

It's too depressing and obnoxious to write about, but virtually all of the doomy/horny AI hyperventilating is transparently displaced anxiety about our fucked climate and political situation. Even rich idiots know it's bad and being permitted to get worse. They're trying to write their own ending.

Here is an @iroh.computer teaser, showing web browser finding a iroh node (on my machine) replicating two dialog db's that you can connect to via WebRTC transport (without relays)

People have asked if I have kofi, I'm doing okay financially but if you REALLY want to throw $ at me, please consider pre-ordering the folk-horror TTRPG I made with @sinisterbeard.bsky.social . We put a TON of work (human work!) into it and would love for it to do well www.blightshollow.com

1/ It’s time to share more about what we’ve been working on: @commonfabric.com is a social computing lab building a medium for software that revolves around people, not apps. commonfabric.com

Fresh new OG image!! leaflet.pub/about

Ok im gonna say something here that is going to draw a lot of different feelings from everyone, and I want to be clear i'm not "in support of this" or "against it". i'm just saying it as an observation that seems true to me: I think with the latest frontier LLMs, the “music” era of games is upon us

Do not upload your brain into a computer

I wrote about what I've been up to with my new programming language! Zena targets WebAssembly GC, with a TypeScript-like syntax, sound type system, and lots of cool features like pattern matching, async cancellation, borrow checking, WASI integration, and more! justinfagnani.com/2026/09/09/z...

Now that we've put Zena out there a bit, we're looking for collaborators of any sort. We especially need people to give feedback on the design choices from many different perspective: developer ergonomics, the type system, compiler architecture, etc. Anyone with any level of interest is welcome!

Every article about the inevitability of AGI

Maybe you are excited about GTA6 and maybe you aren't, but it will likely be a cultural monument in at least the following way: there will probably never be a cultural artifact of this size and scale made without genAI slop in it again

re: omarchy trying to create parallel infra to subvert the linux community and kick trans/female/black people out i know some people think that sounds crazy but DHH literally is doing a podcast tour saying that is exactly what he's doing lol

Looks like @1password.bsky.social is an enthusiastic sponsor of DHH, which brings them below the waterline on “trusting to manage my secrets” Recommendations for an easy to use personal secret management system? Vaultwarden comes up a lot, do people I know like it? Other recs?

I almost screamed.

Was walking past this building and through the window saw this backrooms-ass room, so I accidentally took the coolest picture ever due to the window's reflection

with a bit of perspective, I wanted to write this post which reintroduces spaces as a new primitive for atproto! spaces are a deeply social & "atmospheric" primitive & I kinda think they uniquely thread the needle on our design goals

Fun fact: about 6% (2000 out of 34000) of the links saved to @semble.so includes at-tags.

a guy extracted all of the 3d models from Katamari Damacy and put it up on a site: katamari.andrew-boylan.com

Some of you haven't watched Andor, probably because you (otherwise rightly) think that nothing interesting can happen in the Star Wars franchise. I have to say that's a mistake, though.

It's easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of LLMs.

The Nerd Reich has been banned from X and Facebook, and is now being banned from YouTube. For what? Pointing out the fascism of Silicon Valley, those companies as leaders. It'd be a shame if people heard. ¡Muerte al tecnofascismo! www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Ne...

just in case anyone was confused #gamedev

This one resonates. What nurtures us in art is downstream of human intention. www.youtube.com/watch?v=spq0...

Extrapolating from my Fable usage during the "First Taste is Free" period, I will be on the hook for about $6,000/mo in order to keep using it.
