"Find friends by phone" is a common tool in social networks. We're proposing a secure scheme and requesting comments from the dev community.

Goals:
・Double opt-in: you're not findable by your phone unless YOU use the tool
・Secure to enumeration attacks
・Resistant to decryption if compromised
Request For Comments: A secure contact import scheme for social networks | Bluesky
This article outlines plans for a future Bluesky feature \- it doesn’t exist yet\! By sharing our ideas early, we hope to solicit feedback from the community.

MCP-UI is here! & we’ve got its creators, and the Goose engineer who's bringing it to life!

Instead of typing prompt after prompt, developers can now build real, interactive UIs— all running inside Goose.

Watch the team that built it and the first team to adopt it break it down live.

Alright, #OpenAI finally living upto its name, launching two new #OpenSource #LLM models gpt-oss,

👉 huggingface.co/collections/...

Excited to try the gpt-oss:20b with #Ollama and integrate with @opensource.block.xyz's Goose agent since it has tooling functionality.

Early reviews are promising!

"Social media users are tired of losing their identity and data every time a platform shuts down or pivots. In the ATProto ecosystem, users own their data and identities. Bluesky is the first big example, but a new wave of decentralized social networks is just beginning."

Hard to imagine this doesn’t become a norm for many when shopping given ubiquitous AI. Going to require some big adjustments in retailing.

(And as opposed to searching on Google, I just had to take a picture and o3 did the work, giving me personalized advice and telling me what sales to wait for)

“Something like Goose had to exist.”

According to Solomon Hykes ( @docker.com and @dagger.io co-founder), Goose stands out in a sea of AI tools with no strings attached. It’s open source, decoupled, and built for developers.

The new voice model from ElevenLabs is interesting & surprising. I put it against one of the hardest pieces for reading aloud - the final verse of Eliot's Wasteland, which uses four languages, a nursery rhyme & abrupt changes in tone.

It required a few attempts to get, but this was pretty good.
