Thank you for reporting this @mackuba.eu! Makes me think we need end to end monitoring all the way through to the Bluesky appview. I'm happy with our current observability within our own stack, but we don't yet have visibility beyond emitting our firehose events to relays, so we didn't detect this ๐Ÿ˜•

Funny. We requestCrawl every 5m, so probably not that

ugh thanks for the nudge, we may need Bluesky to reconnect their relay again. @calabro.io could you try that? I don't think we've gone backward, we now hard crash instead of ever going backward, and we haven't done that, but I'm not sure what else to try.

Citation?

I'm open to believing it, but their main cost still has to be headcount, and for 40-50 people, that would be an unusually high multiple.

really interesting idea to use the existing atproto data plane for service discovery! you get a number of things (schema, distribution, tooling, etc) for free that everyone's already familiar with, and that have the right shape and tradeoffs. I like it

Thanks for building this! Is it still working? I'm getting "Error: NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource" on every handle I enter.

AP: add account migration (Move) support ยท Issue #330 ยท snarfed/bridgy-fed This is largely outside the AP/AS2 specs. Mastodon docs, AS2 Move activity spec, @manton's great blog post.

Not right now, but hopefully eventually!

Interesting!

Do you have real world example use cases for maps, where the fields are arbitrary but the values are all the same type? (And maybe have additional consistent constraints?)

The Harmful Consequences of the Robustness Principle Jon Postel's famous statement of "Be liberal in what you accept, and conservative in what you send" is a principle that has long guided the design and implementation of Internet protocols. The posture...

Yes! Ubiquitous TLS (honestly @letsencrypt.bsky.social alone) is another strong candidate. And Postel Was Wrong is a banger

lots of human QA. so many test plans ๐Ÿ™„

I'm not saying anything new by including AI coding here. I don't fully know what its long term effects will be. I doubt many of us do. And the industry is far from perfect.

But coming from a late adopter, and a skeptic in general, it's still clearly a big deal. And I haven't seen many of those.

In my 25+ yr career in (systems) software engineering, I can count on one hand the number of real paradigm shifts I've lived through:

* Automated testing
* Modern intra-DC network routing fabrics
* SSDs
* Cloud infrastructure
* AI coding

Yup. For more background, we currently have 71k Bluesky users bridged, but only 4k Bluesky OAuth logins. So at best, right now we could write this kind of "I'm bridged" record to ~6% of our users' repos.

Every layer of review makes you 10x slower Weโ€™ve all heard of those network effect laws: the value of a network goes up with the square of the number of members. Or the cost of commun...

"Whoa, AI prototyped this so fast!

This prototype is getting buggy. My AI agent can fix the bugs!

Hmm, every bug fix adds more bugs

Aha! My agent can review the code

Wait, why am I passing data between agents

I need an agent framework

Replication of Quantum Factorisation Records with an 8-bit Home Computer, an Abacus, and a Dog This paper presents implementations that match and, where possible, exceed current quantum factorisation records using a VIC-20 8-bit home computer from 1981, an abacus, and a dog. We hope that this ...

Best paper title I've seen in a long time

Sure! Cc @thoth.ptnote.dev. That user expectation makes sense.

Data sovereignty laws and regulations maybe seem less useful here, at least as they're formulated today, but they can evolve.

On one hand, yes!

...on the other hand, these decentralized networks are generally designed to spread data far and wide, independent of physical location. Preventing that would require eg geofenced distribution, which I haven't seen anywhere yet. Interesting opportunity maybe, but not easy.

Hello yes, awesome trip. Loved hanging out with you all. Thanks for everything!

Thanks! That's largely right. (And web too!) We're at ~140k users total right now. Architecture details: bridgy-fed.readthedocs.io/source/desig...

@sherif.eurosky.social we don't focus on self-hosting, but it is possible. Happy to talk about bridging or anything else if you want. cc @quillmatiq.com
