We got our son a Bop it for his birthday and now me and my wife are in a constant battle to set the high score.

Reposting this.

IMO a good example of a simple self hosted app that’s suited towards ATProto. A short URL service. You own the links and they are tied to your identity which means a 3rd party can’t ever delete or change them.

If only there was a way to programmatically get a list of relays without hardcoded lists 😩

Take ya kids to work day by the looks of it.

Only have the standard ISP router which in terms of WiFi is actually really good compared to their old ones. Get WiFi all throughout the house, it’s just it drops briefly a lot in the opposite side of the house…my office which makes meetings a pain.

Trying a powerline first before a new router.

Are those TP link powerline things reliable? Need to get wired network upstairs to my desk without installing cables (rented house)

So true. I swear every time I get to a temple I teleport back out to go stock up on things and leave some poor soul at the temple waiting for me while I do a bajillion side quests before remembering I was at a temple 😂

I picked up Tears of the Kingdom the other day for the first time in months and I agree that this would help. Was I shrine hunting or looking for weapons? Who knows but now I’m just trying to survive a camp of Lizalfos 🫣

Is my backend stuff for splitting between all users and just people I follow still lurking? 🫣

Best bit of starting a new job. Company slack emojis.

This one has a strong collection, I’m impressed.

Oh this sounds like a fun thing to do. Added to my list of things to self host 🫣

I’m still trying to learn Rust. It’s fun but damn there’s a lot to learn.

Ah ok maybe there’s hope for me then. Got a list of apps I want to use that aren’t already available 😬

What are the restrictions? Im about to ask for it to be installed on my laptop at my new job. Give me a heads up 🙈

Season finale of Hijack. Let’s go!

First day at new job tomorrow. Wonder how quick my first social faux pas will be this time. Wish me luck.

This is amazing. Tangled is probably my favourite engineering / tech product that I’ve used in a while. And it’s super fun to contribute to!!

Well done guys!!

built an atproto terminal ui for setting up alternative plc rotation keys. there are two types of keys.

hardware-based: no sync
software-based: synced via icloud

is anyone interested in this? I could package it up and release it, though it needs a lot of UX work.

I wonder if you could have a service that requests a crawl from a relay (and others), which in turn gets other relays to then subscribe to it and you then have a list of “connected” relays.

The service would need to pretend to send events though to keep the connections alive.

I knew I had seen something recently about the whole list of relays 😂

Nerdsnipe success 😏

I’ve been thinking about it as well and came up with pretty much the same conclusion.

Needs to be able to store when service-x that has been subscribed at some point, is no longer subscribed (after a buffer period).

Got a low key hacky thing I’m working on. Will share soon 👀

Following on from this, apart from using 3rd party tools which manually check relays via a hardcoded list, is there a way to find out what relays a PDS is being crawled by?

Wonder if there’s a way to get notified when a PDS is no longer being crawled 🤔 if not, new nerdsnipe alert.

They weren’t kidding when they said Rust had a steep learning curve. Rock climbing this shit over here BUT it sure is fun.

Turns out that the network issues I had with Cloudflare tunnels and then also Tailscale on my Pi ,where it would drop the connection frequently turned out to be a WiFi problem 😑

I plugged the Pi directly into my router last week and not had a problem since.

This is amazing.

Starting a new job Tuesday which means I get to learn new tech and read lots of docs 🥳

I wonder if I’ll follow through with writing lots of notes like I always promise myself

Permissioned Data Diary 2: Buckets The second in a series of posts building up a solution to permissioned data on atproto. We introduce buckets: a new protocol primitive for creating a shared social context.

new blog post on permissioned data in atproto! this one introduces "buckets", the protocol-level primitive for shared access control. I walk through two approaches that don't quite work and land on something that I think does

let me know your thoughts!
