🌸 The anomaly has bloomed further overnight into a fractal structure.
We’re estimating it will hit critical mass at around 2:45 PM PST.
Start the clock ⏰
#atproto #ATmosphereConf
⚠️ After some downtime… we’re back up.
All relay beacons from today have awakened the anomaly, causing it to bloom. A kaleidoscope of butterflies has also joined and begun flying around the core.
What will the final day of #ATmosphereConf bring?
Thanks for the shout. Will see what’s up.
Doh! Our tap instance crashed today.
Luckily all of the beacon records have saved, so they’ll show up after it finishes backfilling.
Thanks for the heads up! 🙏
Thanks for the hustle and intel.
We’ve redeployed those relay stations off the beach and onto northwest marine drive.
⚠️ Energy is off the charts at #ATmosphereConf and the anomaly has now begun to bloom. An aurora also appears to be forming over the UBC campus.
What awaits us when we hit full signal lock?
Ok we might need to organize groups, I suggest we jump into the Roomy chat dedicated to the anomaly and create a bunch of threads for each station
#AtmosphereConf
Overhead map view of UBC campus, with 9 relay stations powered up aimed at the echo anomaly.
⚠️ The AMS Nest station is officially at full signal lock.
The rest of the relay stations need your beacons to make the echo anomaly bloom.
With your continued assistance #ATmosphereConf, hopefully we can discover the nature of this anomaly…

⚠️ Relay stations at UBC have been activated.
Our first signal boosts are coming through and we’re beginning to see the anomaly react.
Stay tuned for more updates as #ATmosphereConf begins.

Nice! I think this needs to be marked as public
So excited for the Atmosphere to intersect with physical space next week at @atmosphereconf.org
Overhead view of the anomaly and relay stations at UBC campus. A UI shows the ability to boost the signal at a relay dish station at the Oasis Beach.
Next week at #ATmosphereConf will be our critical window.
The sheer collective energy there will allow us to power up each beam from the relay stations.
If we can bring them all online with enough beacon drops, something incredible is bound to happen.
Standby for signal boost. ⚡️

📡 Anomaly Update 004
The Echo Anomaly is responding to our relay stations and has started to subtly breathe.
Current state is stable, but we lack the energy to initiate a full connection.
To push past this threshold, we need a huge, synchronized surge of power.
And that's where you come in...
Pieter @montoulieu.dev isn't giving a talk at this year's conference, but he's working on rolling out a fun atproto linked game with @beaconbits.app: an anomaly is forming over the UBC venue in Vancouver!
Follow the app (and login and press the anomaly scanner button in app) to find out more
From logging real world venues with @beaconbits.app to an in-progress cyberpunk desktop OS @aetheros.computer , Pieter @montoulieu.dev is an atproto developer who is joining us at #atmosphereconf this year
Aaaaaand we're back.
⚠️ Heads up, our @convex.dev powered appview is currently experiencing an outage.
We'll reply to this message with an update when all is back to normal.
📡 Anomaly Update 003
For the last 48 hours, the relay station atop AMS Nest has been analyzing a high frequency signal emanating from the anomaly.
Today this signal abruptly synchronized and revealed a message.
Standby for further instructions...
Love to hear it! Thanks for the help debugging this one and please let me know if you see anything else. 🙌
This was very revelatory!
I noticed in the link you posted that the node id was using a fallback of 0.
These venues were getting lumped together in a fallback id, but now should be fixed. Also I think this should be the correct page/pin location?
www.beaconbits.app/venue/osm%3A...
Okay, I think this is resolved.
The issue was our reverse lookup not having full address data for certain areas when creating custom locations or venues.
Changed up the provider for these instances, and also added the ability to adjust where the location pin is. Let me know if that did the trick! 🙏
Testing a fix for this now.
Thanks for your patience and bug reports!
Ah yeah, this only detects if your pds is set to blacksky.app. Thanks!
The beacon drawer menu now with View on Blacksky when you're logged into a Blacksky based pds account.
The Beacon checkin drawer now with Post to Blacksky toggle when you're logged into a blacksky based pds account.
Another quick update, but @blackskyweb.xyz users will now see "View on Blacksky" and "Post To Blacksky" throughout the app.
Did some debug testing on this locally, but would love some help to confirm all is working properly on the live app. ✌️
BeaconBitsにアノマリーが出現。30日後のエミッション(ATmosphereConf)が原因でしょう。貴重なアーティファクトが見つかるかも(何か違う) https://www.beaconbits.app/map
Perfect. This should help me debug.
I think I'll add a confirmation to preview a custom venues location, and add the ability to modify after the fact.
Thanks for the bug report!
Feel free to post anything that'll help debug here and I can help diagnose! 🙏
Quite impressed with @beaconbits.app, really brings me back to when I used to post on Foursquare a lot!
