Well deserved. Always a great read.
Yeah - clicked through to the article with that same thought. Glad it’s not matrix.org !
Foursquare just open sourced their 100 million place point of interest dataset! Some notes on poking around with it using DuckDB (it's Parquet files on S3) simonwillison.net/2024/Nov/20/...

Met a baby mynah who was learning to fly. Hadn’t quite worked it out.
I often hear that Australians don’t “do” trick-or treat at Halloween, or that it’s “an American thing” but in my childhood back in Scotland on the 31st Oct we always went “guising” - dressing up and knocking on doors, maybe reciting a poyum, for sweets.

Ok! Did you know that the character of Spock & the Vulcan “live long and prosper” 🖖🏽 is actually drawn from the Torah & informed by Nimoy’s Jewish heritage?

Underrated comment!
Gosh, so much and yet so little.
Tell you though, my youngest (10) has taken to playing that gorgeous bass guitar I picked up from you all those years ago! Long may that continue!
Hope you are all keeping well?
Yes, can’t help feeling that one needs a birb though!
Yeah exactly.

I *think* it’s when an account is very similar to a well-known twitter account and the Bluesky team can’t verify. It’s a manual process, from what I can tell.
apparently muting the hellthread doesnt work? technically that's a bug but it's hilarious so
