It’s not a question of if people will advertise or promote or sponsor content on Bsky — it’s a question of how transparent it will be, and how much control you’ll have as the audience. Adding support in the protocol is the best option for everyone involved — even folks who never want to see ads.

The bar I went to tonight had Ardbeg 10 year single malt, which I had a double shot of, and then downed because my partner wanted to leave early — let me tell y'all, I've missed feeling legitimately drunk.

I have a few PRs open for this but despite some initial enthusiasm I've heard nothing since. 😔 People have begun and will continue to monetise this platform in various ways. It's fully up to Bluesky PBLLC whether this is done in way that helps sustain creators and complies with local laws, or not.

Tech question for my tech followers (not the rest of you; I'll block you if you respond "I don't know what you're talking about"): is calling attachInternals() required to make the Declarative Shadow DOM accessible via a custom element's shadowRoot property?

Newsletter: Generative AI is a marketing con perpetuated by Sam Altman and Dario Amodei through a mixture of lies and half-truths carried by a tech media that fails to ask the right questions. Outside of ChatGPT, generative AI companies barely get any traffic at all. www.wheresyoured.at/longcon/

I wonder how much the wave of over-reliance on AI will mirror the wave of over-reliance on outsourcing in the mid-2000s
