I really appreciate the number of reasonable posts from super senior developers who talk about how they’re using LLMs, which tasks they’re good for in software dev, and which don’t make sense at all.

fire up your terminal and telnet into `bsky.tel`, the telnet bluesky client, which is now live!

obviously this is really early on, but it should work well for modern machines all the way back to the Commodore 64 and Apple II (pictured here)

plz send bug reports + feedback my way!

Guess what? You can rebuild the Bluesky app without writing much code because we just open sourced the code for this app. Why are we doing this? Because we are philosophically open-source...

We believe sharing = more people building WITH us.
alright folks, the app code is now public

Content here is public, like a blog. Blocks prevent interaction, but data can be viewed whether this person has an account or not.

We just had an in-depth conversation about public nature of data over here:

Announcing SkyLink, a new chrome extension for detecting new bluesky accounts while browsing the web!

Like the good ol’ days of RSS, this simply lights up blue when you’re on a domain that's linked to a bluesky profile.

Just click the icon to open their bluesky profile in a new tab.

Bluesky FAQ published! https://blueskyweb.xyz/faq

• What is Bluesky?

We're building a protocol that can make social networks work more like email, blogs, or phone numbers. The AT Protocol is close to completion, and the Bluesky app is a microblogging client built on it to showcase its features.
