One thing I keep noticing while using bsky.app (or mu.social and other forks) is how network-chatty the application is. Is this lack of optimization? Is this how XRPC is supposed to be used? Are hundreds of requests simply not a problem anymore since HTTP/2?

Is there any tooling for atproto PDS operators to be made aware of moderation actions against data stored by their users? Mostly wondering because as a PDS operator you'd be legally responsible to delete illegal content, even if it is made inaccessible at the app layer.

how long does it take to push the whole couple gigs of nixpkgs git repo in its entirety to github? how long does it take to pull from that same repo you just pushed? need this for comparison and i dont have good enough internet to wait around to check this myself

As a severe heatwave sweeps across western Europe — with France, Spain & the United Kingdom recording some of their highest temperatures on record — EEA's European Climate Risk Assessment provides a sobering framework for what lies ahead. 🌡️ The current situation is not an anomaly, but is a preview.

Without sufficient adaptation, annual heat-related deaths could reach 90,000

Out of sheer curiosity I tried pushing the nixpkgs git repository to tangled.org and while their git server handled it just fine, their web interface absolutely didn't. 🥲 (not that much of a surprise, but I still had to try) #tangled #nix #nixos

Screenshot of an error on tangled.org with the heading "503 - Service unavailable" and the body "We were unable to reach the knot hosting this repository. The service may be temporarily unavailable.".

Underneath are two buttons, "Try again" and "Back to timeline".

For every Co-Authored by Claude Code commit you push, please spend a night in Memphis without masks or air filters, and make sure to try the tap water.

Yesterday was my last day at Deno. It's rare you get to work with so many highly skilled peers in one place, but I'll be now cheering from the sidelines. Not sure yet what comes yet. I'm officially looking for a job now!
