I'm thinking it'd be fun to do a casual NYC atproto meetup in early / mid-Oct…
Who's around & interested? Any days best?
What format(s) would you be into — demo / show+tell, group discussions etc?
One fun idea from @awarm.space: lightning talks about *someone else's project* in the atmosphere!

Once again thinking about AT Collections. We need a primitive that can organize _any_ record in anybodies PDS.
There ought to be a way to do shared collections, but the protocol isn't amenable to that, so personal is fine.
But it must mix any type of content: profiles, scrobbles, anisota items

tldr these are the primitives i’m personally warm to. the first one probably can’t take off in userland if the app doesn’t embrace it. but maybe some other atproto app will? or maybe bluesky will do something like this? i’m not sure!
i just think there should be two user facing things.
one is something between pinterest Boards, reddit Subreddits, and twitter Communities. it’s basically just Lists of posts. i call it Collections in my head.
the other is kinda like feeds, you know, whatever Discover is. i’d probably just use one

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?
It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

wondering with @fjpaz.net about the backup/cache of data that isn't yours? if you quote post someone and the original is deleted, you might not remember why you quoted it, same with a like, or any future lexicon? or am I just confused about this

are there any lexicons that are for connecting accounts to other socials? was thinking of making one for say are.na
(my idea was to verify on the other side through some convention, so for arena it could be like making a specific named block or channel etc, and then on the atproto side link to it)

it works offline as a printer game: the wiki categories are all printed out and you can check your guess by scanning the QR code!

slowly in the process of setting up a Mac menu bar app so anyone can just plug in m, but trying to figure out how to automatically tunnel it so there’s a public endpoint
using cf tunnel, but there’s also tailscale funnel,
my one custom one with vps, or a p2p one so don’t need to spend money

@henryzoo.com what was the thermal printer you used and do you have the code anywhere if someone wanted to do something similar? It was really fun to watch from the feeds.

how would "shared" data work on atproto? if it all goes to each person's PDS would the only way to do this be duplicating the data? (i'm thinking of something simple like a shared/collaborative list of posts, like an open are.na channel) are there any examples of this already or is it all individual
