i haven’t been using my blog much these days as i’ve been pretty busy in life should i make the conscious effort to post more or should i just keep posting whenever i feel like it?

Pretty interesting that the new pope is American.

every outage is a self-hosting radicalization event

This is pretty funny. The people behind the you wouldn’t steal a car commercial stole a font.

I agree with the Garbage Day about Cluely: The Most Loser Shit Imaginable

The EU isn’t happy with Apple’s tax on alternative app stores

My new Bluesky tool just dropped... the Verifier tool on @cred.blue! Use it to get a more interactive understanding of @bsky.app's new verification system. ✅ Verify friends ℹ️ Check your verifications 💞 See which mutuals verified you Note: this does NOT give you a bluecheck! cred.blue/verifier

SCOOP — The US sent Iraqi refugee Omar Ameen to Rwanda via new diplomatic relationship in which they've agreed to act as a "third country" for deportees unable to be safely returned to their country of origin, per cables reviewed by me. This is first reported instance. Cable indicates more to come.

Everyone should go check out seven39.com! It’s a pretty fun platform only open for 3 hours a day, so you should probably give it a try!

i still think domain verification is a great solution but as someone who often explains DNS to large bureaucratic institutions these days, trust me when i say that quick and easily recognizable account verification is necessary too. especially for verifying authenticity in moments of breaking news

Everyone deserves due process.

deer.social looks pretty cool, appears to be a fork of our open source app with more robust controls around labelers, neat!

I did not expect this: Wikipedia is giving AI developers its data to fend off bot scrapers

is OpenAI Codex just OpenAI’s version of Claude Code?

This ICE-snitching app is actually promoting a meme coin

After writing my history of concentration camps, I came to believe that short of committing murder yourself, one of the worst things you can do is to abet or exploit the suffering of another human being to increase your own power in the world.

I did not expect for o4-mini to be so cheap! o3 is also cheaper than o1 which is pretty interesting!

GPT-4.1 is API only… I wonder if this will stay like this or if it will eventually get added to ChatGPT (I believe the latter)

I just found this very interesting research paper by Anthropic on how LLMs “think”: Tracing the thoughts of a large language model

I found a cute tabby cat on the street and decided to take a picture of it!

I’ve tried the Sesame research demo and it’s absolutely crazy how human-like it feels. www.theverge.com/news/6210…

people... you know these are fake accounts right? also @support.bsky.team you seriously need to work on your auto banning system and @support.clearsky.app you need to start hiding people abusing your site to advertise shit.

HUGE shoutout to this video by @dimm4.bsky.social that covers the history of the ownership of our wiki! Check it out: youtu.be/ySXP4hxFNFw

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas from the Minecraft Wiki! 🎁

something i hope more people do on bsky is follow @ap.brid.gy . especially large/notable accounts . it bridges your account to Mastodon meaning people using Mastodon instances can see your posts and interact with you

I’m very curious to see where this new non-profit will take the bridgy fed project. A New Social: Hello, Social Web

congrats on 25M @bsky.app 🔥👌 25% to 100M 🫡

sudden growth means literally everything breaks and grinds the team into dust, gnashing them in the teeth of their own ambitions, mocking them with their hopes and dreams. aka, success

Note from one of the Bluesky team: it is helpful to use some consistent keywords when reporting (the other two mentioned later were "troll" and "scam".)

Ever wanted to see the world through someone else’s eyes?

does bluesky cache embeds?

Beyond what’s mentioned below, Bluesky is also the possibility of ads under the right circumstances: “If we ever were to do ads, it would look a lot more like how ads work on the web, where it’s intent-based.” www.marketingbrew.com/stories/2024...

The only thing that really concerns me here is the monetization plan. A system through which people can tip certain creators if they like their stuff might be one thing, but any monetization plan based on likes/views/replies would be game over. We don't need engagement farming to pick up steam here!

A non-technical explainer re: 🦋's open network by @emilyliu.me "With Instagram, X, & Reddit, you’re creating an acc. on their app. It’s like you've a room in their house, & you have to follow all of their rules. If their app shuts down, then you lose your room there." emilyliu.me/blog/open-ne...

By popular request, here's how to add Bluesky replies as your blog's comment section! This requires some technical know-how for now, but I'm hoping that we see some no-code solutions for this pop up soon, like Ghost or Wordpress plugins. emilyliu.me/blog/comments

no offense but i’d pay bluesky a small amount of every month compared to not doing it for twitter because elon musk is evil and so far bluesky hasn’t been evil. not having any ads on here at all has been a major reason why this platform rocks too and i’d contribute a little to keep it that way

Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky

What else is different than other platforms ? A complete firehose for academics, researchers and anyone !

Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.

A troll’s only purpose in life is to troll you. Your anger is like oxygen to them. When you take that away from them, they shrivel up and die. What’s up, Bluesky! 👋

is there a character limit for alt text?

To be clear, we do have plans for scaling, we just kinda expected more than a couple days notice before getting blasted with a million new users a day. The team is rapidly deploying fixes and new software to adapt. More servers in the mail.
