I was similarly confused, and did some digging to determine that they are not related: https://twitter.com/DAIRInstitute/status/1830719509931663411...

Yeah, capability for group permissions is a key part of the work happening on permissioned data in ATproto right now. https://dholms.leaflet.pub/3meluqcwky22a https://dholms.leaflet.pub/3mfrsbcn2gk2a https

I dunno man. Why was Tangled able to ship on top of ATProto even prior to getting funded, and ForgeFed has been hanging out for years?

I think you're missing the point. With the IndieWeb version of POSSE, the source of truth is the webpage you control. For the ATProto version of POSSE, the source of truth is the record in your PDS. That record is interesting because

This isn't accurate tho. Neither Bluesky, nor other ATProto services require any of this. RedDwarf is an example of an ATProto client that connects only with your PDS, uses Microcosm ( https://www.microcosm.blue/ )&#x27

Yes, as far as i know it's an honest self-report kind of thing.

There are a lot of misunderstandings about what Blacksky is assuming that it's a just a community fork of Bluesky. The Blacksky team has a much broader vision for which they decided ATProto was the right architecture. There's a lo

I love that the initial state itself isn't stable. The world keeps moving around us. Can't choose staying still.

Anybody can sign up for Blacksky.

I wouldn't write ATProto off as just microblogging, there are a bunch of interesting (and exciting depending on your POV) apps out there that _aren't_ microblogging apps. To name a few: * https://stream.place * https

There's still some more work to do to make the developer experience simple enough that it's a no-brainer for people to pick ATProto up in anger. But there's a lot of work developing on that front, and the next 6-12 months wil

I'd argue that ATProto is the next iteration of open internet. It's what an internet where accounts/identity and verifiable content attribution are built in, and nobody using the technology needs to think about any of that.

Yeah, that's falling directly into Facebook's talking points. It's a web extension, anybody can inspect the source. It doesn't do what Facebook is claiming. The NYU team bends over backwards to ensure that no personall

It's very strange to call a proposal (negative income tax) made by economists as orthodox and central to 20th century conservative politics as Milton Freedman as _utopian_. But even beyond the aspirations of a UBI/negative income

Hey Jared, in fact, if you click into the video on the Open Steno page, the stenographer & developer you're talking about is Stan Sakai, who is involved in Open Steno: https://twitter.com/stanographer

Right, and it's still sad to say that they capitalized on that fact so incredibly poorly that the following came to pass: https://twitter.com/jacobian/status/1012781017940316161 > The Lawrence Journal-Wor

Oh thanks for pointing this out. I'll hit the Muckrock team up and see if we can get the text button in there.

Yeah man, learning to scan a paper for interesting content is definitely a skill worth developing!

Really? For a 6 white paper? Fine: Tilde built a server monitoring daemon with Rust and it's low resource and doesn't crash. Tilde thinks the Rust community & its resources make it easier to teach to new team members.

Nothing about OpenAI actually addresses any real world problem. So i have a problem with their rhetoric as much as their research agenda. Nothing they're writing about addresses any of the real world problems with how AI can or might
