If you are steward of sensitive user data, audit your security stance. One of the advantages we have as defenders is that the frontier models are less hesitant to hack things if you can verify ownership, so use this ~6 month window to batten down hatches youtu.be/1sd26pWhfmg?...

My @recurse.com Localhost is up on youtube! Covers results from the Runescape benchmark, design of rs-sdk, and economic swarm experiments I've been doing youtube.com/watch?v=cNm4zyUtWj0

Thank you for an amazing localhost talk about rs-bench @maxbittker.bsky.social. @recurse.com

don't talk about this a lot because I think it's a whole can of worms and I don't like to get barraged by SWEs about it but the kind of tooling that you COULD have as a social scientist now is genuinely mind-blowing and we've never had this sort of power for our work

TIL @leaflet.pub has canvas publishing! Thanks @awarm.space :) Taken at @atproto.to

@maxbittker.bsky.social digging runescape 2003 tonight, this is amazing 🤣 big shoutout for full AI integration: github.com/MaxBittker/r... and the currently running perma-instance at rs-sdk-demo.fly.dev #runescape

9 games that changed me

hey @maxbittker.bsky.social, just found this. amazing timing, I am a big network wars fan and always wanted to do a web-based clone that plays faster. I also wanted analysis of optimal play and was thinking of trying bigger game boards or tweaking other parameters. you've done it all! great work

Made this giant bird puppet with people this weekend! It was great!

So what's next? I'm looking for full-time work in Denmark. If you know of a role in DK that needs someone who's spent two decades at the intersection of AI, human creativity, and socially-driven tech experiences, I'd love an introduction

I feel like an issue that would connect well with voters would be doing anything at all to slow the current progression toward "absolutely everything now is a scam"

i also made a game for the jam, it takes like 10+ seconds mutmedia.itch.io/countdown

a beautiful gray evening in Brooklyn! @leaflet.pub team braving NYC's finest mist to bring you cookies & cold beverages to @atproto.nyc 😁

I'm going to "atproto.nyc - July 2026".

Thinking about the different tumblr post types and especially about how fun it was to decide how your theme should handle each post type. Could be a fun atproto/blog extension. Could also be fun to have an llm agent with tools to build out post types and display on-demand.

i don't talk about it much, but PROTOTYPING WIKIPEDIA (my current day job) is completely fascinating and thrilling to me. it's a combination of technical.. creative.. design challenges. it's also a people thing how do i bring a prototyping practice to a megalithic organisation and tech stack?

does anyone know why my pfp and header image disappeared in the app? I didn't change them and the data looks correct when i look it up by did

the samsung emoji problem is of course that we are not all using the samsung emoji

Really cool. I've always been super skeptical of heterogeneous social media clients because of the "samsung emoji problem" if I understand it correctly, Inlay is a super cool way to get diversity plus intercompatibility

Vernal equinox. When winter is gone and spring starts. Sparrows begin to nest in the trees. Cherry blossoms start to bloom. Heavy rains bring distant thunder. 🌸

trying to set up my new phone

I have a new piece up at @rockpapershotgun.bsky.social — it’s about when I got hacked in Dark Souls 2, used hacker tools to unhack myself, and then talked to my hacker years later

Jay seized a historical moment and speed-ran Bluesky through some wild times. I'm glad she's found her own way back to the big picture. have had great conversations with @toni.bsky.team about standards work and open source governance. very important to have continuity of clueful leadership!

NYC friends: there will be a really fantastic benefit show for Minneapolis at Jalopy Theatre on Thursday, 2/26 at 8pm! Amazing musicians and dear friends :) $25 suggested donation, notaflof All proceeds go to rent and grocery support to families currently unable to leave their homes.

big snow is such a magnificent moment for horseplay. the light is pink, the sounds are muted, childlike wonder is engaged, and the gravity's on 0.75. suit up and get out there if you can

no conclusions were reached nor were any programs initiated; rather the appreciation of continual unfoldment of new insights revealed through friendly conversation was seen to be the means by which and increase of harmony might appear

Wrote a new blog post with some data and lots of links.
