🇨🇦 Canadians deserve real verification on Bluesky. In #Canada, CIRA (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) already verifies: 📍 Canadian residency 🪪 Government-issued ID 🌐 Ownership of a .ca domain That’s trust — not a pay-for-play checkmark. Let’s get everyday Canadians verified on Bluesky.👇

For the longest time I shied away from low level programming. I always found it intimidating. It turns out it isn’t any harder than other programming. It’s just that everything written about it assumes too much. So here’s my attempt at an intro to machine code jimmyhmiller.com/machine-code...

Rather than being resigned to a story of "company as a future adversary" (no judgement; plz read the article) we can utilize the framework of steward-ownership to reify our vision for "company as a future commons". blog.muni.town/company-as-c... This is how @roomy.chat will work as a company.

Candy-coated lies…enticing new users & keeping existing ones hooked. The tobacco & nicotine industries target people of all ages with products & designs tailored to different groups while deliberately preying on youth. Ahead of #WorldNoTobaccoDay 🚭, let's unmask the appeal 👉 bit.ly/NoTobacco2025

Thank you @saw6dev.bsky.social for your @bskycheck.com service! I'm trying to get CIRA (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) to verify it's members (Canadian citizens/residence). Made a thread about it: bsky.app/profile/tauh... What do you think the impact of this would be on trust on bsky?

@bmann.ca Thank you for liking my post talking about how CIRA should verify members on Bluesky. Bluesky is now expanding its bluecheck system, what are your thoughts on the matter? I made a new thread with step by step instructions for other Canadians to follow. Criticism is welcome.

@legalgoose.bsky.social What's the minimum number of members required to sign a petition to have a non profit org respond? I'm trying to get bluechecks for Canadians who are members of CIRA (the non profit owner of the .ca domain). I got legalgoose.ca -> @legalgoose.bsky.social See quote post:

"There is a cult of ignorance in the US, & there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'" - Asimov

The less time you spend thinking about or reading about or reacting to or writing about what anyone else is doing, the more time and positive energy you have to make your product the absolute best. Which is how you will win.

A trader bought 6,000 $TRUMP on April 21, two days before the announcement that top holders would be invited to dinner with the president. They sold it a few hours after the announcement two days later caused the token price to go up, earning $33k on the trade. Impressive timing!

Bought tickets today. August can't arrive soon enough.
