coolest part about this is that this is something we can do now; bounce between algorithms, pitting them against each other in a friendly competition to be the best feed.

I’m giving Discover another try and so far, I like it a lot. For You is too “focused” for my taste, when Discover draws posts that have more variety.

this site by @standard-reader.app is a really cool way to explore the standard.site world and find new publications to read standard-reader.app

Huge thanks to @leaflet.pub, not only for creating Leaflet in general, but also for being so helpful with all of my questions and requests! 🫰 (if you're looking for a replacement for substack etc to create your own content, I can't recommend Leaflet highly enough!)

Welcome to the future (derogatory).

Hungary's new government is tested very early. Paks nuclear plant is about to go offline for the first time in 44 years because the Danube is drying up. That's nearly half the country's electricity. Collapsed supply & gas prices spiking throughout the region. Just brutal. apnews.com/article/hung...

I don’t like sycophantic LLMs but Opus 5 being so needlessly argumentative and confrontational doesn’t seem to be a good alternative…

Hello @popfeed.social. The app is great, here is a bit of feedback: - The app is really slow on iOS and on web. It takes up to 10 seconds to load any screen, which makes using it quite painful. - Editing the date of a movie review fails on iOS. Date can't be edited at all on web. Thanks!

This is very interesting.

Fantastic paper demonstrating how LLM editing is gradually distorting our writing and the way we think to write: arxiv.org/abs/2603.18161

Now that @stream.place supports regular video hosting on top of live video feeds, it would be excellent for @leaflet.pub to embed a video player instead of treating stream.place URLs as standard webpages 👀

Joseph Cox@josephcox.bsky.social · 5d ago

Update: Google just sent me a statement saying it is “rolling back” this AI feature that let anyone make completely bullshit satellite images. Comes after our demos of the tool and those from OSINT researchers. One of the worst AI tools I’ve ever seen bsky.app/profile/jose...

This is more than the NSF social sciences division - now on the chopping block - awarded in grants last year. Think about that: a single AI company has the money to fund more social science research than the US govt.

I thought sycophantic models were bad but then they all got nit-picky instead.

Ted Underwood@tedunderwood.com · 6d ago

man, I miss sycophantic models these ones, if you thank them for answering a question, they're like "not so fast! — I answered the question you posed, but didn't address possible blind spots in the question framing itself"

Colleagues with monetized Substacks: The future of publishing will be on atproto – at least the non-broligarch, moat-free, democratic future of individual publishing. Now @leaflet.pub is launching paid subscriptions. The best time to switch is now. Become an early adopter.

Meta has become such a predatory company that it now costs almost 50€ a month to have clickable links on Instagram publications – and for that insane price, you only get four (!) links a month. We need to bust these closed silos. www.meta.com/fr-fr/help/s...

💸Meta is globally testing two new subscription packages, Meta One Essential and Meta One Advanced with the following prices: Meta One Essential — €14 euros / month. — $16 dollars / month. — £12 pounds / month. Meta One Advanced — €46 euros / month. — $53 dollars / month. — £40 pounds / month.

Collaborative posts are becoming quite common these days. Is this something that could be built on Atproto as well? And if so, how? I think @leaflet.pub already has something similar to this?
