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

1) Open this image up 2) Find the small, blue feature in the very middle Congratulations, you've spotted the Perseverance rover on Mars, photographed from orbit! 3) Trace the rover tracks as they wend their way across the surface

Dear Santa, This year for Prime Day I want the breakup of Amazon as a corporate conglomerate monopoly, with Kindle and Audible being nationalized into a sort of publicly owned internet library funded by a progressive tax on the hyper-rich and an annual stipend for authors.

"Pretty much everybody who’s from the 21st century, or anybody who’s a creative person, is pretty furious about AI. Anyone who’s not oblivious to culture is aware of that." Couldn't put it better myself tbh

The M82 Cigar Galaxy, imaged by JWST. The bright central part is the main disk of the galaxy; jets of gas emanate at 90 degrees to the disk. This version is 4,000 px across. You can access the full 155 mpx image in the next post.

Love this thread. Resharing it mostly as a reminder to myself to try out all the other awesome applications on the Atmosphere.

the general bsky userbase being a lil dismissive of the standard.site integration is a reminder that this whole atproto atmosphere ecosystem is a long game. not everyone will be on board, and that's ok! we'll be ready to welcome people into a decentralized social future as big social fades away :)

Been seeing Venus and Jupiter in the sky for the last several days. Such a delight to see a professional photo. #astrophotography The best my phone could manage was this:

@atmosphere.community @mu.social @eurosky.social I remember some recent posts about coming up with an Atmosphere logo? That sounds like a great idea. Perhaps we should ask the community to come up with logo concepts and let them pick the favourite? I came up with a couple of sketches myself 👇️

I hate hearing the word ‘framework’ from any engineer. You can replace that word with ‘overengineer’ and you'll be right about 90% of the time. You don't have to make frameworks for everything! Stop making everything 'robust' and 'future proof' while the project is still being iterated.

Glide typing is fun. I almost asked someone to "feel free to drop a reindeer" when I meant reminder.

You know what's an awesome programming language? Fennel (and by extension, Lua, which Fennel transpiles to) I decided I don't want a unit testing library and chose to write my own barebones test runner. It took <5 min to hand-code. #lua #fennel #programming

npm increasingly feels like a zombie org under GitHub. As someone who's been around the JS ecosystem and part of multiple OSS orgs for years, what I'm seeing isn't just "big co moves slow." It's quiet neglect of critical infrastructure the entire JS world runs on. A short thread 🧵
