I *mostly* think the AI bubble talk is overstated because the biggest companies are investing from cash flow not debt, and the rest are getting private money, not public. But watching Cursor raise over $3B is a useful bit of intellectual humility to remember that there is no singular correct answer.

Sometimes Bluesky absolutely disgusts me. I don't care if you think Jeffrey Epstein is hot, think about all of the terrible things he's done.

I still have some things to improve so this is a WIP, but I think it's far better than being dropped into a completely stark screen with no direction.
And I just want to say I love what you're doing with Pckt! I'm constantly playing with new blogging platforms, and I love how ~~alive~~ it feels. 😄

3/2 This is another layout consideration that I have but forgot about until I went to read another leaflet. It'd be nice to be able to customize the width of the content or scrolling settings, at the very least to not have a scrollbar in the middle of the page.

Unbelievable. Both that I can't believe I did something so stupid and simply short-circuited push notifications for months (though I didn't deploy this change for a while so it hasn't actually been an issue since July), but also that Codex figured it out in minutes what I've been debugging for days.
![Users have reported that their links aren't updating
across clients in realtime anymore, the way they were
before. This is done in [Plinky Server] (Plinky Server/) by
sending a silent push notification, which we do in
[PushNotificationsController.swift] (Plinky
Server/Sources/App/Controllers/PushNotificationsContr
oller.swift) with the sendSyncPushNotification call.
This should be called in sendSyncNotification which is
called by sendSyncableChangeNotification, which is
called quite often in [SubscriptionsController.swift]
(Plinky
Server/Sources/App/Controllers/SubscriptionsController
•swift), [TagsController.swift] (Plinky
Server/Sources/App/Controllers/TagsController.swift),
and most importantly in [RichLinksController.swift]
(Plinky
Server/Sources/App/Controllers/RichLinksController.swif
t).
This was consistently working for a while, but now the
client only updates on app foreground rather than
responding to push notifications.
1. Read through the code and investigate any potential
problems with these codepaths.
2. Explore our git history to see if the source of the
issue could be a recent change. (I don't know when
this broke, but it likely happened in the last 8 weeks
- though maybe more - so don't be shy.)
3. Make a list of the top 5 likely culprits (listing your
confidence intervals for these being the cause of the
problem we're seeing).
4. Leave any other notes for issues that you come
across, but that is far less important than solving this
problem that's affecting production users.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:b6eke66r3vbmnegg73qgprl6/bafkreib2nwyybymul4e5w5klrj65go232ycvyswhqmptlqjl3qs6fmpnci@jpeg)

I recently gave talks at NSSpain and iOS SoHo where I shared a lot of what I've learned. The ideas and techniques apply so widely that some part of my talk resonated with every single person I spoke to. While it's not the talk, I recorded a short video to introduce my workshops. (Featuring my cat…)

I take a lot of pride in teaching, so I deeply personalize every session to build *your idea* by matching your skill level and goals. Learning about the latest and greatest AI tools isn’t easy, so I work hard to meet you where you are, so I can bring you closer to where you want to go.

Jeremy's built multiple apps since, and I've been refining my technique. I’ve taught over a dozen AI workshops, and without fail the person tells me they've learned something valuable about AI. Many have said that it's completely transformed the way they work as developers and non-developers.

1/7 I'm excited to share something I've been working on since April: build.ms/ai.
It began when @jeremyb.bsky.social came by and I told him I could teach him enough about AI in three hours to build his app idea. We didn't *quite* finish, but to quote him "I'm so grateful I've found this new hobby."
