Building in the atmosphere means you don't have to go it alone.
We know organizers, and the groups-of-coordination they facilitate, require digital infrastructure for events planning. Ergo @roomy.space needs Events.
@tompscanlan.bsky.social agreed and magicked @openmeet.net straight into Roomy.
Defuddle now has a website!
This means you can use Defuddle anywhere to get the main content of a page in Markdown format.
You can simply add "defuddle.md" before any URL, use it via curl, Skills, CLI, or add it to your app via NPM.
1. A short thread on a Bluesky phenomenon that might be described as "They are a dead-eyed cultist who must be cast out lest the heresy take root!" OP has blocked me for mocking them - I'd usually obscure their name but since they themselves were quote-dunking to demand someone else be blocked ...
It’s actually FEWER Misérables
npmx is now in alpha: this is our story, as told by our team and friends
Skyreader now supports RSS reading from the command line!
npm install -g skyreader
then you can do cool things like:
skyreader feeds --all --json | jq '.feeds[].items[].title'
or
claude -p "summarize today's feeds using skyreader"

it's sad, used to really enjoy his work back in the day, but this level of thinking is embarrassing
Even if Secretary Hegseth backs down and narrows his extremely broad threat against Anthropic, great damage has been done. Even in the narrowest supply-chain risk designation, the government has still said that they will treat you like a foreign adversary-indeed, they will treat you in some ways worse than a foreign adversary—simply for refusing to capitulate to their terms of business. Simply for having different ideas, expressing those ideas in speech, and actualizing that speech in decisions about how to deploy and not deploy one's property. Each of these things is fundamental to our republic, and each was assaulted —not anything like for the first time but nonetheless in novel ways—by the Department of War last week. Most corporations, political actors, and others will have to operate under the assumption that the logic of the tribe will now reign.
Fascinating article. It argues that the republic is already dead, and the DoW incident is merely the signal

Anthropic: “Using these systems for mass domestic surveillance is incompatible with democratic values”
Ben Thompson: Refusing to build mass domestic surveillance is incompatible with democratic values
Certainly a take.

"The Department of War may use the AI System for all lawful purposes, consistent with applicable law, operational requirements, and well-established safety and oversight protocols. The AI System will not be used to independently direct autonomous weapons in any case where law, regulation, or Department policy requires human control, nor will it be used to assume other high-stakes decisions that require approval by a human decisionmaker under the same authorities. Per DoD Directive 3000.09 (dtd 25 January 2023), any use of AI in autonomous and semi-autonomous systems must undergo rigorous verification, validation, and testing to ensure they perform as intended in realistic environments before deployment."

"one" lol
I'm not convinced they're real. 400 MAU and I've yet to meet a single person who's like "I use and enjoy threads"
I have too many 😂
oh no I have another project idea
Really excited for this! Following on @semble.so enables “faceted following”: not simply following someone "wholesale", but rather specific facets of their work - their AI agents collection, open source philosophy, or whatever resonates with you. Faceted following is also a signal for the curator >
oh interesting! like have a RSS feed crawler that writes everything to a PDS. that might work
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!
PDSs are fine the issue is RSS feeds can't always be fetched from the browser because site operators don't always put the right CORS headers on them.
I'm just about to make the backend public
CORS is the fundamental reason, need at least a feed proxy to get around that and at that point might as well do a whole appview etc.
Oh shoot, will take a look
New blogpost about atproto
It's not federation, it's not a p2p mesh. It's a secret third thing: practical.
