Seattle dev. I like inclusive people and also chocolate chip cookies
After 5 hours of sleep, it’s time for round two of puzzling. Not feeling amazing about my contributions so far but let’s see if I can make up for that some today!

Hi! We appreciate everyone's enthusiasm in sending invitations, but our current policy is that we cannot accommodate heads of state to join us in our beta yet. This applies to recent/prominent heads of state as well.

We appreciate notice before you invite prominent figures at support@bsky.app.

Listening to Everything She Wants by Wham! today and admiring George Michael’s wonderful singing and melody writing.

The song talks about having a baby, but we know it didn’t inspire All That She Wants 8 years later, because Swedish people meant “boyfriends” there. Didn’t know that for years!

@mattbinder.bsky.social hey listened to the podcast, enjoyed it!

we actually do want and have always wanted people who don't care about decentralization to be here. the whole point is that it shouldn't surface in awkward ways or make the experience worse

looks like we're finally going to move the web app off of staging.bsky.app and to just bsky.app. not so much because it's ready, but more because we're tired of that url.

we'll make staging automatically redirect. should happen by tomorrow, unless something explodes in the process

👋 you can also use a non-DNS option — serve some JSON at a well-known endpoint (similar to webfinger)

```
GET https:// <users-handle> /xrpc/com .atproto.identity.resolveHandle {"did":"<users-did>"}

```
(remove spacing)

Just curious — what was your first computer? (Quote skeet this with your answer…)

I realized today I could make karaoke songs more personal by changing “Red” to “Ed”

“Little Ed Corvette”: solid
“99 Ed Balloons”: also solid
“Ed Right Hand”: creepy but still good
“Rudolph the Ed-Nosed Reindeer”: hmmm

Thanks for the awesome Seattle meetup @camille.bsky.social! Yesterday I didn’t know what BlueSky was and today I met a bunch of fun people from it! Looking forward to doing more of these! And also hanging out on here with lots of non-jerks!
