For You but cross-lexicon: find people who liked the same Bluesky posts as you and show you what they: - liked on standard.site - starred on tangled - rsvp'ed on atmo.rsvp - saved on semble.so - listened to on teal.fm - etc

This is Pele, my new rendering library for diagrams and charts, compatible with the latest Mermaid syntax. - 100-500× faster than mermaid.js - 6× smaller bundle - No dependencies - Easy to theme - Responsive to device width - Open source (MIT) Try it at pele.run

Ainslie Art Plaza is maturing like wine - i was skeptical! Slowing down western with a traffic island and maybe put the McDonalds karaoke outside and it’ll be impeccable.

Twin Peaks: Cooper goes to sleep.

Welles park is right there, as is a whole other block around the library that square roots used.

Hi protocol friends! I've been cooking up a Very Large PDS (vlpds) implementation capable of scaling up to billions of accounts and down to just one. It uses Object Storage as its only state, supports HA operation, live scaling up and down, is feature-complete with the reference PDS, and is FOSS.

Overview · vlpds docs

An atproto PDS whose only durable storage is an object store. Any node serves any request, one node can run a personal server for free, and a few nodes can carry all of Bluesky's write load.

Notion wrote a nice blog post on how they use CRDTs, including our Peritext algorithm for rich text! This must be one of the largest CRDT deployments out there? www.notion.com/en-gb/blog/h...

Lowering the friction of local copies of the atmosphere I think is one of the best things that can be done to unlock novel ml and sensemaking like Jaz has done! Jetstream v2 and microcosm so important. Here’s my small attempt - im sure there are better ones! github.com/pboueri/atpr...

Yeah I've got a WIP explainer for the methodology sitting in my drafts right now. This was about a day and a half of effort (a nice sized weekend project) and drew heavily on the fact that i've already got a bsky archive in clickhouse for exporting and i have some background in ml pipelines

unironically, bluesky is the social website for ML. couldn’t do this anywhere else

Okay so I've built a new Atlas, this time it lets you explore the conversations on Bluesky over the past 7 days graphically. It should update every ~6 hours and help you navigate the information environment that exists on here. I've learned a LOT about what people do here today... atlas.jazco.dev

Atlas

A living map of what Bluesky is talking about: the past week's conversations, grouped into topics and regions and rebuilt every six hours.

People say Bluesky is a bubble, but mostly it's because the entire rest of the internet is an absolute sewer

Inspired by this godawful practice - here is my new feature to the app that i think provides better access controls - and of course you get notified when they check on you

The Pinball President

No commander in chief has been better at seizing public attention than Donald Trump. But there is a difference between getting attention and doing something with it.

My brain just cannot deal with this being called Jev

This type of bias can exist with all automated decision making - jev or no jev. NY and other bodies have created solid laws about proving no bias for automated decision making systems for hiring www.nyc.gov/site/dca/abo...

Very quick and dirty Jev test for hiring bias. One resume for a Wall Street job; asked whether the applicant should get a first-round interview. 76 evaluations, changing only the first name. 19 of each: White-associated men/women, Black-associated men/women. console.typesafe.ai/playground?s...

The discourse is extremely frustrating to follow!

Is anyone aware of a browser that lets you customize the UX via natural language but keeps special attention to the inputs and state. Thinking of how to ”personalize” the web.

Ok not to be all conspiratorial - but the squirrels are definitely acting more crazy (and there are more of them) this year in Chicago. Combine that with intense Cicada szn and tiger mosquitos and it feels like something is happening

Squirrels on suicide missions have knocked out power to Castle Rock, Colorado twice this week. Our investigation has revealed a century of squirrel attacks covered up by the pro-squirrel media.
