I'm really interested in amateur vs professional tensions in civil society.
online I've seen that theme touch on web archiving (EDGI, archive.org, traditional libraries); wiki epistemology; open source sustainability; blogging/journalism; free culture; self-hosting; and community moderation

bunch of people in a knot over economics of Venezuelan oil.
I think the oil angle is leverage in international markets (eg, like OPEC but smaller scale), and direct regional access to fuel that would be used in big wars (not drones, but jets/ships/logistics/generators).

@eugenevinitsky.bsky.social and I are looking for a few testers for something special we've been building! It's an app that lets you view the same content you see here on Bluesky but with extra features — some focused on researchers, some general upgrades. Reach out to us if interested!

Researchers: Aside from moderation and safety features, what would you want in a researcher-focused social app? Obviously a feed of shared papers, but what else?
We could make our own bsky client that does this by default? Maybe?

I hadn't tried this app out until now, it is pretty decent!
it pulls in a bunch of external book metadata and book reviews, so it doesn't feel dead/empty. a bunch of AT folks are using it daily. uses granular OAuth permission scopes.

Two new features:
Now, you can track progress on books you are currently reading. I'm using a similar shape to @popfeed.social's book progress tracking, which should make it easier to inter-op in the future.
We've also implemented proper OAuth scopes, which means minimal permissions to your data!
