So a not too well known thing about me: I'm the co-author of the Client ID Metadata Documents internet draft that Bluesky / AT Proto uses for OAuth. This document came about due to my work on Mastodon's OAuth implementation. If you'd like to support my work: support.thisismissem.social

They’re also people who can’t name another woman athlete besides Caitlin Clark

This whole statement is incredibly damning but gosh this part especially. Very much worth reading.

> Also, "I thought dinner had SQLite in it" is going straight into the tally. Sounds like a very questionable recipe. Just try to guess what I was trying to say here 😂😂

Very useful insights here. The bit about how everyone thinks they’re the comms expert hero is painfully familiar. I’d say all this is also in tension with investing resources in our own digital infrastructure, where we wouldn’t need to do all this. Unfortunately, an overlooked long-term strategy.

Yo OMP: Either implement auto-update or update less than twelve times a day, it's getting so this banner is just always and forever on my screen

The right can't seem to see the distance between "I just see trans people as people" and "I will force everyone to become trans whether they want to or not, so help me God"

There are no models you can trust without mitigating the lethal trifecta. Also all coding harnesses are literally RCEs, that’s their literal job. You just have to design your systems around it.

Submitted a talk proposal for @atmosphereconf.org 2027.

I'm proud about this move! Good stuff @opensource.google !!

I hate the idea that the inherently queer stance is anti-AI that some people seem to think is the default. I've had people question if I'm even a woman, and call me a tech bro, and it's like they're in active psychosis lmao. If you can't respect me as a woman you're a bigot, AI or not.

Well, I fork didn't take long I guess.

what most people don't realize is that your favorite website or app - yes that one - has likely always been covered in the digital equivalent of duct tape and wd40 and is still holding on at the seams and creaking with every click

I'm so gosh-darned excited! css-tricks.com/css-tricks-h...

More than a third of X users are considering, or might consider, switching platforms — most often to upstart rival @bsky.app according to @financialtimes.com. Monthly X-user numbers have slipped or stagnated for at least a year. www.ft.com/content/236f...

Wowzers, this week just got very busy 🥵

Riding the algorithm as political action. Wild shit out of Brazil

Elections are heating up in the states and there's a lot of conservatives and centrists trying to both sides or just get people riled up. Don't engage with them, amplify our voices.

I know this is a bot account but listening to the trauma of corporations fucking people over, that is excruciating, but at a sympathetic level

Bluesky elders know that @lulaoficialbluesky.bsky.social was the first head of state on the platform!

someone at Polymarket is drafting a tweet about how their users accurately predicted the Brazilian election result within one point

Lula and Zelensky are the two single most important leaders in the world today. We have a lot to learn from both

16 inch MacBook Pros are great if it's just on your desk all the time, but 13's are good if you're commuting and usually have an external monitor

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

Lula Goes HARD

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

Did a perf pass on all the things for sesh.codes Huge memory improvements all around!

hi, i made a screen recorder !!! it's called Screenie and it's out now ❣️ it follows your mouse and zooms where you click, smooths your cursor, has pretty backgrounds, blurs private stuff and a lot more. no account needed and everything stays on your mac <3 try 4 free at screenie.cam

Nice little fix/improvement to the github-notify-ml script that IETF, W3C and SWICG all use for sending emails about github activity: github.com/dontcallmedo...

@brookie.blog hey, can we make it possible to select code blocks and copy text in them? Something funky happens with this code block when I try, like the selection doesn't stay as if it's being re-rendered? til-tech.pckt.blog/til-ignoring...

The poll so far between Twitter, Bluesky and Mastodon. I think it looks less absurd than last time, but still pretty clear that the base is divided. bsky.app/profile/mits...

just woke up and OH MY GOD HELL YEAH DUDE LULAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA LULAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Spent too much time creating the preview image for: foryou.club/atmosphere I pulled the current profile pics of the Bluesky accounts for each of the apps that the cross-lexicon For You feed shows. Not sure what's the deal with @pckt.blog Can you spot an Easter egg?

Brazil going the way of South Korea. Basically around the world women are desperately trying to keep power out of the hands of incredibly stupid fascistic grifters while men keep trying to hand it over. Men are an embarrassing cringe gender.

Olivia Rodrigo has done some truly weird and wonderful work for SNL: youtube.com/shorts/SLi3K...

Had someone on Twitter tell me if ConcernedApe could make Stardew Valley alone, I can make the games I want without AI. He spent ~70 hours a week for over four years making the game while partially being financially kept afloat by his partner. This is NOT an ideal to uphold.

Normalization of getting therapy! I was on the bus the other day, and two older gentleman were talking and one bid farewell: “this is my stop, I’ve got therapy today” and the other person was like “ya gotta do it!” 💖

10/10, fantastic post 🤣🤣

You really helped immensely by letting me know what questions to ask and what problems I needed to solve. I can’t thank you enough.
