Bluesky is incredibly just "sign up with a thing." Except even easier, because you don't have to pick an instance first.


"Sign up with a thing" -- but then what about after that? You've made a bunch of stuff, what happens to it?

Offloading THAT mentally to a different "service" or "account" I think is easier than this all-in-one thing.

Again, I like the IDEA a lot; if you'd presented it to me like in 2000 before a lot of this stuff took off I would have been all about it.

Today? No, I think it's reasonable to offload that to so-and-so-dot-com, each as a separate account. Like the phrase "I have a facebook" always sounds weird to ME, but I think that's "the way."


Is this named after the Protoss Executor Artanis?


"Artanis" backwards is "Sinatra" which happens to be the name of a popular Ruby gem for web dev.


And was a gag in the ancient Dick van Dyke show, where Dick's character gets a painting signed by `Artanis', and thinks it worthless, until someone spells it backward.


> Has a Sinatra-like style route, hence the name "Artanis" ;-)


if it's any consolation, the Protoss executor Artanis was named after Frank Sinatra


My first thought as well. State your will!


Streamplace | Decentralized Video Protocol Engineer | US | Full-Time | REMOTE (Anywhere)

Streamplace is building open-source live video for Bluesky's AT Protocol as part of our mission to solve video for everybody forever. We've recently raised ~$500,000 from the Livepeer Treasury and are building our founding team.

We're in need of someone with a background in decentralized protocols and video technology. You'd be responsible for building and documenting the Streamplace segmentation and replication protocol, building out our GStreamer-based multiplatform node software, and facilitating our rollout to global low-latency platform. Our stack is primarily in Go and React Native.

I asked this and got

> We did a backend rewrite from postgres to scylla and it has a bunch of deployment specific stuff, but is functionally identical to the open source postgres version. Its not really a "v2" in terms of new features, we just made it make use of our hardware really well[1]

Thanks, so are both the Postgres and Scylla versions maintained in terms of new features?

I wasn't aware that AppView v1 was open source, and the most recent info I'm aware of on the topic is https://alice.bsky.sh/post/3laega7icmi2q, https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto/discussions/2961 and https://docs.bsky.app/docs/advanced-guides/federation-archit..., and everything I've heard about Bluesky was that open source appview is "still coming".


It's not coming, it never went away… As I understand it, the "business layer" with all the logic is above the data later, shared by the Postgres and Scylla versions, and the data layer just makes queries to the database. I think they are using the Postgres version locally for development.


This is really fun.


What social justice objective is being prioritized? By whom? Go watch the actual video — it's a flat joke about her not knowing what March Madness is but drinking Bud Lights anyway. It's completely unremarkable influencer #spon content. Her being trans isn't even mentioned.


Been using and happy with Podman Desktop for a while now on Mac


Podman Desktop on Mac uses weird user-pace IP stack which does direct socket allocations on the MAcOS host itself.

Additionally, Podman Desktop on Mac always return on ICMP echo, try running `ping 5.5.5.5` or any other non-ping-able IP and see it yourself.


Can you elaborate on the direct socket allocations?


You can see `tcp` sessions of the container using `netstat` on the host MacOS if you use Podman Desktop.

That's not the case if podman runs on a Linux VM on UTM for example. Additionally, ICMP behaves correctly in the later case.


"Writing working commands first try for every single ffmpeg feature that exists" is the highest bar I've ever heard of, I love it. I'm gonna start listing it as a requirement on job postings. Like an ffmpeg speedrun.


Yes and every failure of a product turns into a support ticket.


Obligatory xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1168/.


To be fair `tar` is quite easy to use once you understand the grammar of the options.


Yeah, definitely different output when the domain is actually registered. But maybe the contract with Tuvalu lets them do whatever they want, who knows.


So... was this the cause of the whole Terraform licensing change kerfuffle?


Perhaps more importantly, Vault.


Yes. IBM was reselling Vault as a service. Hashi couldn't.
