checking in to @atproto.nyc community day 2026 [j8bl8kob] #atprotonyc

I've built a small system that helps people decide whether they should use a bloom filter on their use cases. It can give some false positives, but at least I never saw it give a false negative.

While I loved a lot of things at the conference, probably the most fun I had was back at the airbnb after skipping day 1, with three of us doing stuff in the kitchen in parallel. we got amazing from-scratch hot chocolate, tasty cookies, and excellent bolognese out of that evening.

look i just wanna know if @baileytownsend.dev got #1

Thrilled to see Dan @makeitdoathing.com has finally opened the glitchwear.store store for his one-of-a-kind, computationally generated, buyer-customized knitwear. I'm delighted to confirm that these are gorgeous and comfortable garments, too.

I set the table real swan of damocles just like you asked

_very_ alpha, but I've been messing with an atproto backfill/sync solution built on @cloudflare.social — currently has a couple caveats, and needs some work and docs, but the bones are there

something that might solve this and also the speed: instead of sampling every follow's follows (which is a superquadratic[1] nightmare drip-fed through rate-limited network IO), sort follows by number of following and only scan the following list of those with sufficiently low numbers [1]:

I made a #Clojure port of this gorgeous coordinate free technique for drawing circular arc splines in PGA2D using #geometer. It will be included in the examples for the library… www.youtube.com/watch?v=m317...

What are your favorite visual critiques of software? On my mind right now are: 1. "The long tail of user needs" 2. diSessa's monolithic apps vs computational media 3. (a recent favorite by @todepond.com) "wish these apps could talk to each other"
