15 weeks ago I sat down and wrote up some ideas about how custom feeds could become a high-leverage mechanism for fundamentally changing the economics of the attention economy. Today was my last day at my day job- I’m now full time @graze.social! Incredibly excited to give this all I got!

@pfrazee.com gave me this award in standup today I think the facial expression is pretty accurate for how I feel reading Hackernews comments most of the time :|

🛠️ atproto devs! 🛠️ got a new proposal out about Sync 1.1, aka inductive firehose, aka cheap validating relays. it is a long, low-level doc. doesn't directly impact folks unless they emit a firehose (eg, PDS and other repo hosts), or are doing full validation as a consumer

We did it! @austcr.im and I welcomed our first guest to the pod: @esb.lol What a treat. We talked about React Native, working at Bluesky, and all of our Iowa connections 🌽. Tune in on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2bC...

I wrote up a post about how we hugely improved the write performance for Bluesky's timelines/following feed. If you want to learn more about how we did it, check it out. Some nuggets in there about embracing imperfection in some parts of a system to scale better. jazco.dev/2025/02/19/i...

The e in iPhone 16e stands for 'eggs' and that's why it's overpriced

Some interesting stuff in here that should greatly improve atproto's ability to "scale down" - e.g. running a custom appview without having to sync the full network state, and full cryptographic validation of firehose events without storing full repo states

I'm actively looking for a new role, ideally outside of journalism and fully remote. If you wouldn't mind resharing my LinkedIn post I'd be most grateful. 🙏🏼 www.linkedin.com/posts/aendra...

I have no idea why but for some reason I do my best blog post writing between 11PM and 2AM local time. This next one is about Timeline Fanout optimizations and will probably land Wednesday.

If you're an engineer that's curious about what it's like to scale Bluesky, give this pod a listen! Autumn and Justin are such fun hosts too
