wow keik is extremely cool / bizarre

It strikes me as a game-like social network experience. I feel im "unlocking" new features as I figure out what's going on. My confusion is a feature not a bug

I just published a write-up over on my blog about how I created my new automated dynamic Bluesky avatar that changes every hour of every day. 🌅

See the project's inner workings and take a look at my creative process here:

Trying something new on dazzle.fm

Netflix even caved and they were the most ardent. they had to so they can fund content (esp when competitors do it)

BT has a great debate w sama about this; let’s see if chatgpt can find a new model

(fwiw not sure if it applies to bsky bc it may not be a consumer co bc of atproto)

How does it do ads now?

Yah I think that’s why I look at discord as a beacon of hope. It’s just that the best consumer / viral products really do need to have a free tier to really expand (often to benefit of the network).

Wait I find discord an actually semi successful case here? If online is tru it did 600M in ‘23 of which 200M was nitro. That’s not bad and I assume prob has grown. On a 200M MAU base it’s not terrible (could obv be better)

How do people think about new verifications mechanisms in a way that don’t complicate the protocol?

E.g. automated verification that can be verified completely using cryptography, lets say about emails

Would a good way be:

1. Use the current mechanism with an automated user as the verifier

Sunday in Brooklyn

atproto nyc dinner (w @joe.sprk.team)!

Let us know if want to join a future one

Fun times in Omaha

some really cool work by @grjte.sh

CryptoUtilities.jl: A Small Julia Library for Succinct Proofs We’re excited to open-source CryptoUtilities.jl, a collection of Julia packages built to prototype and benchmark succinct proof systems over binary fields, along with a simple walkthrough for how to…

When Andrija and @lmao.bsky.social told me they're writing an extremely fast cryptography library in Julia I didn't know what to think...

And then they showed me the following cool stuff:

+1 @connerruhl.bsky.social @johnsabath.com i run into login persistence issues too

Congrats!!

friendly reminder that building on atproto gives you immediate access to >30 million users, an existing social graph, and a huge network of open data & content

it's increasingly becoming a no-brainer to build new social apps on atproto

congrats to the skylight team on the launch 🙌

GitHub - cpfiffer/comind: Open-source components for Comind, the cognitive layer for the web. Open-source components for Comind, the cognitive layer for the web. - cpfiffer/comind

I'm launching Comind, an open source project to develop a cognitive layer for #ATProto.

Comind is intended to build a network of AI agents that collaboratively process information flowing through AT Protocol.

I'm looking for contributors interested in the project.

First conferences are always special. Some ~moments~

#ATmosphereconf

atproto thing i have gained some conviction on this weekend: educating users on how this mess works is hard enough without us all implementing our own (pre-oauth) login flows

we should standardize our logins and make them all look the same. share components if at all possible. same UX.

!

Day 2 #ATmosphereconf

Sign me up

Is the ai listening to me

Hanging out at #atmosphereconf this weekend in Seattle. Say hi if around!

do you not like the waymos?

huh TIL

Really cool seeing more granular bsky/atproto data! By @edavis.dev

bskycharts.edavis.dev/edavis.dev/b...

Really agree with the live plays / memes part. Half the time I'll have the game on and then the feed to see funny stuff (or a group chat)

I've always thought a client like this would be cool, some things I'd like to see:

- microblogging still the foundation
- more integration with live scores and big plays
- self-serve visual flair for which teams you support
- domains for identity, especially for large publications
