<fgc> Marvel Tōkon assists being directional is actually what I've been practicing with Zappa dog for over a decade. At least I have a small advantage coming there (if this is the case after game release). </fgc>

My #atproto intro from @cascadiajs.com is posted!! Check it out for an entry-level overview to atproto, why it exists, and how to develop on it! And then share it with your friends! Who wants to see if we can get more views on it than @t3.gg 's talk? 😉

What if you could leave a social platform without leaving your community? @brittanyellich.com explains how the AT Protocol lets you own your identity, your data, and your social graph, opening the door to a more open, portable, and developer-friendly web. 🌐 youtu.be/_ZrChpf8FZ8

Hey, New Yorkers: Mayor Mamdani is recreating the city's digital service, after Mayor Adams destroyed it. They're hiring devs, designers, and product folks to work on-site in Brooklyn, starting now. You don't even have to be a city resident. Get on it!

The first part of Declarative Partial Updates (`<template for>` out-of-order HTML) is now available, unflagged, in Chrome 150!! developer.chrome.com/release-note... The second part (the new JS setting APIs, include the streaming ones) we're still working on the spec side, but maybe for Chrome 152?

How do you teach craft? Where does it come from? I asked this to @curiouschaos.com at the end of Wireframe Live yesterday and here's her answer: "The foundational piece ... is that the person cares." 💡 What a great insight. I truly believe this is the thing that is separating us from the LLMs.

Chatting with @donnie.damato.design is the ultimate systems geek out session. I honestly loved this. Even though my "passion hives" were showing.
