Greetings from SXSW. Just saw Meredith Whittaker (Signal CEO) gave a great talk on why everyone needs privacy even if you don’t think you do. And how being a nonprofit removes the temptation to “further monetize” information you have on your users

I make visuals to help folks learn.

Governance with event-driven architecture is currently a passion of mine.

Here is a visual to help you understand why, and resources to help you get started.

If your handle today is "invalid handle," don't panic. It will likely revert soon like mine did. If you feel impatient, you can try the fix below.

Expect Bluesky technical hiccups as the (excellent) engineers manage the surge in new sign-ups and usage.

One part of our upgraded infrastructure may affect your profile.

If you see your handle now says “Invalid handle,” please reverify it by navigating to Settings > Change my handle > Type in your current handle > Verify DNS Record > Update.

(Basically, update to the same handle.)
