Here's an early preview of what's in store for @lexicon.garden

The home page now lists a summary of active lexicons across the entire network. This is a high-level view of ATProtocol network activity that you can drill-down into.

They blocked me because I said "white American" mostly just because I was ragebaiting, but remove "white" (and maybe the word bigot because it lost all meaning in the modern discourse) and the argument still makes sense and is what I actually believe in
Any company that designs their product to be "iOS first" is a classist white American bigot that is afraid of "the poors" of using their app

I think @standard.site makes backlinking easier than I originally realized, this could be useful for @margin.at and other highlighting services

IMO one of the best ways to do this is via dictation. LLMs seem very adept at tracking your line of thinking through long and drawn out rambling about a problem you're having

re: the germ/bsky integration, i think bluesky should just convert this feature and the DM user experience flow into a generic “contact” flow and people can put signal, email, etc and Bluesky’s DMs and Germ are just options for private contact

tap contact on profile, choose channel, etc

Context repositories are our biggest innovation since sleeptime compute.

Letta Code memory is now git-backed. Any number of agents can swarm over things to learn, remember, and store them in a cohesive format. Massively parallel memory management with standard conflict resolution.

I just tried the package comparison in @npmx.dev to decide between two packages.

Where has this been all my life?! 😍

This is super interesting, I'm gonna give logging like this a try
After coming across loggingsucks.com over the Christmas break and being inspired by it, I finally had the time yesterday to sit down and start moving Zed Cloud over to wide events.

Qwen3-ARS transcription models inference in C is ready: github.com/antirez/qwen...

This is by far the most practical model for quick inference on low end CPUs. Perfect for things like transcribing bots, voice-driven UIs, and so forth.

GitHub outages are not inherently because "AI bad", they're probably just because Copilot is awful lol
Is AI bad? Maybe. Are all the GitHub outages, all their bad product decisions “because AI”? I’m not sure! There are structural reasons behind all these.

We all need to be better informed to become better haters 💪
