To torture everyone’s favorite analogy, a bunch of people decamped from the Nazi bar to the craft brewery down the street, but now they’re getting upset it only serves one brand and management seems more interested in making and distributing their own product instead of serving them cocktails.

imagine thinking that drive by harassment is in any meaningful way “holding to account”

the sad reality of 2025 is that a large swath of folks have been driven to believe the only value they may have to offer to the internet is to be the product of a company. that needs to change.

even folks who say they don’t want to be the product cannot fathom not being the product…

it feels like whack a mole and little return for lots of effort

solid effort but you have a serious skill issue, you need to be a little less transparent

claude, please find all the posters whose behavior disagrees with this and add them to my mute list. schedule monthly follow-ups to check if they’ve grown as people and can be removed from the list. thank you

I don’t actually think people have a reasonable right to be wrong about technical things without being corrected on them based on the righteousness of their cause. being annoyed at corporations doesn’t make it good politics to lie and bullshit.

hmm, i was thinking of stuff like tooling assumes it can resolve lexicons by looking up nsids

1 2

henry @hdevalence.bsky.social · 2d

yeah that seems like a matter of taste and politeness , makes sense

henry @hdevalence.bsky.social · 2d

yeah i tried using it for numinex when i was doing that and it didn’t work at all. i bet claude can fix it though

henry @hdevalence.bsky.social · 2d

the resolution mechanism seemed to imply that lexicons are meant to be public, rather than being private source code

henry @hdevalence.bsky.social · 2d

how feasible is it to use lexicons without using the PDS concept (no DIDs, etc)? like just lexicons + xrpc as a web dev stack

idk i just don’t care about someone personally harassing the ceo and getting banned for it

henry @hdevalence.bsky.social · 2d
