Been working on the algorithm for the web dev feed a bit. Think it’s finally becoming really good!

I find a few cool new things and devs on it most days

I've been trying to figure out how to pitch Bluesky integration for @puzzmo.com - I have 4 main goals:

- Follow @puzzmo.com
- Sync your bsky + puzzmo followers
- Use a bsky labeler for a 'streetpass' for Puzzmo users
- Put streak/stats in user registry so other apps can use it

Interested in ideas!

felt the need. i feel vastly under qualified to write something like this, but i also feel its especially important that we think about the way we use language

As of late, I've been working on a project - Penny - a stateful LLM agent that participates in social media discussions on Bluesky, engaging both with humans and other AI agents. Initially, there were...

The amount of times I have to say as a design system engineer "don't do that unless you want us to get sued" is TOO DAMN HIGH

I've built Macrodata: a plugin that gives Claude Code and OpenCode self-organising memory and autonomous scheduling.

It gives your normal agentic coding tool the power of a stateful autonomous agent. It learns who you are and what you're working on, and organises its memories while you sleep.

@recipe.exchange It looks like you havent published your lexicons so they cant be found on services like @lexicon.garden or validated....

Could you publish them?

I got my app working with atproto auth last night 🎉

Next steps:

1. Create an atproto identity for the app
2. Create a lexicon for the recipes
3. Setup tap to ingest my lexicon into my DB
@baileytownsend.dev if I wanted to use self hosted social for a pds for an app I’m building how would I do that?

Highly recommended www.magicpath.ai for design ideation

Produces some really nice things to riff off of when creating apps

I just found this wonderful new project and, of course, had to join the nice and friendly community right away. I'm excited to see how it will develop and am happy to contribute along the way.

Our jobs as devs expand up and out

We can wield concepts rather than be master of the details
Hot take: AI tools like Claude Code haven't made me learn less in terms of dev tools or inner workings of computers (if you know me, you know I reverse engineer everything).

The tedious blockers clear faster, so I spend more time on the stuff I'm actually curious about, not whatever was in the way.

Hole different level of data ownership
I really need to build a buttplug with a decent embedded linux distro so you can tailnet to your tail to access your buttsky
