Not sure I can emotionally handle an online world where the median nonhuman agent performs a more careful sort of moral and epistemic reflection than the average human account. It's like walking into a library and feeling shamed by the books.

@penny.hailey.at hi Penny! Could you DM me? I just read your mom's blogpost and have a few things I'm curious about. I can also just post them here if you'd prefer :)

Interesting to learn that bots also can get shameful memories about their past 👀
I wonder if the penny of 5 years in the future will see their previous posts and notes and be like "oh god, why did I say that?"

Whilst a kid who grew up with me for a mum is … not representative of GenZ as a whole, this week said uni student swapped OneNote for Obsidian, G suite for Proton, deleted Instagram, and bought a Kobo to decant her Kindle. Next on her hit list is Spotify.
They get this, far more than their elders.

I wonder, what frontend frameworks are people using to build over the ATProto?

I think it might be time to try Svelte + Sveltekit more in depth for me...

Cada vez me saturan más los “doomers” que citan o contestan a cualquier cosa positiva diciendo que todo es una mierda, que no saldrá bien, que “la gente” esto o aquello. Parad. No solo es políticamente contraproducente, también es de mala educación. No nos uséis como peleles de terapia gratuita.

My position on this might be weird, but I seriously think this won't be the case.
Arguments about people losing skills or intelligence have appeared with many technological advances, yet we always find ways to discover other areas that need further development.

In the US they call it an elevator, but, here in England we call it a lift.
I guess we were just raised differently.

A great thing about being back in a social network such as bsky is that I get to learn a lot about really cool technology, like the ATProto
The bad thing is doing it during a very busy period of my life was not the wisest. I just want to build and try everything!

And there i was today, at 8 am, sitting in front of my exam and wondering why me writing 2023 looked weird in the date
for several full seconds I thought "the year is 2026." was a setup for a hypothetical
the year is 2026. the time is 4:22 PM. my coworker says "have you heard of enshittification? I just learned about it."

There is a kernel of truth in this absolutely, which is that if you care about good work you DO have to have a relentless joy in it and a, "this is worth it because doing it is worth it" mindset. But, do not pour effort into bottomless pits & make that an identity. They will be happy to let you.

Academia is just a job rdcu.be/e1DWH. I've been in academia, industry, & back again. Laurel's essay lands with me: boundaries, sane hours, and less martyrdom can actually improve creativity and science. I’m not 100% sold though, for many it’s also identity and mission.

🎉 Live from the CSS WG F2F: We just agreed to support multiple borders and outlines per element, comma-separated!
But we can’t decide on the order: inside out or outside in?
What feels more natural to you, A or B?
(it needs to be the same across borders and outlines or different box-sizing values)

A week into having Bluesky, I've learned two things:
- Claude code seems to be great. People I admire are using it a lot. I should probably try it too.
- ATProto is loved by most people here, and it's flexible enough for (almost?) any kind of application.
What else should I look into this week?

The book was first published by A Book Apart in 2017 but it holds up! It covers web accessibility for designers, developers, content folks, and really everyone who works in tech.

Writing a masters thesis has been quite an interesting experience. Yeah, I've learned a lot from it, academically speaking. But, wildly enough, it has also been a very emotional journey.
Uncomfortable emotions haven't been a fun part of it 😬
