Is het wel zo'n goede ontwikkeling dat BSKY geleid gaat worden door een VC?
Voor wie nu denkt, grrr, net nieuw platform uitgekozen, zit ik weer fout... kom naar Mastodon, net zo functioneel maar onafhankelijk, switchen van server is standaard en je verliest geen follower.
Welkom in de Fediverse!
Op mastodpn kon ik m editen/ nu maak ik m opnieuw!
Ik bedoelde niet Joep maar de lezer, sorry Joep!
Trump can always just declare the war over and leave... but is it then?
Zoals Joep het zegt, is het wel zo'n goede ontwikkeling dat BSKY geleid gaat worden door een VC?
Was je nu maar naar Mastodon overgestapt toch, net zo functioneel maar minder afhankelijk.
Het goede nieuws: dat kan nog altijd!
Dank je @bitsoffreedom

Since it follows from the DSA, it's a matter of time and will apply in all of Europe.

A picture of Joe Halpern smiling in green shirt in front of a blue background.
Today arXiv remembers our colleague Joe Halpern, who was instrumental in founding arXiv's CS section.
Joe's passions ranged far & wide and we're lucky that arXiv was one of them. Joe, thank you for giving so much to arXiv - you are missed.

Computing Science Day 2026 today! #CS
yes, and the sad thing is that this cannot be attributed to AI - the incredible pace of ppl putting out stuff is not helping, but CS has long been notorious for preferring to spend time redoing something already known than to spend time with what other scientists thought and put on paper.
Applications for graduate students in computing, sociology, humanities willing to participate in the FAccT 2026 Doctoral Colloquium are open! https://facctconference.org/2026/callfordc.html
Microsoft Research NYC is hiringΒ a researcher in the space of AI and society!
in space? (sorry, could not resist)

We spend way too much time optimising schemas because databases treat strings as second-class citizens.

swingbit.github.io/no-strings-a...
When they go low, we go high.
If you enjoy Paper Skygest, you might enjoy our new academic preprint describing it and our vision!

Hmmm, bridgy does not (yet?) carry over the quotability settings from Mastodon to Bluesky. Hopefully soon!
