I’m SO excited for this! I’ve read almost every book from the Cosmere, and out of all the streamers out there, I trust Apple TV the most when it comes to faithful adaptation (especially when the author is involved, and Brandon was very clear he wanted to be 👀)
Um... What?

This is awesome because a) Brandon gets full creative input and b) Apple TV is a phenomenal studio these days.

This is still preliminary (in Sanderson's own words, this would be step 3 of 8), but exciting!

It's an unprecedented deal for the author, whose 'Mistborn' series and 'The Stormlight Archive' are being eyed for film and television adaptation, respectively.

My site @theatreninja.com is currently mostly down because D1 from @cloudflare-dev.bsky.social is being very flaky 🥺
Issue just got added to status page: www.cloudflarestatus.com so hopefully this gets resolved soon 🤞.

Hé Bluesky, j'ai créé un petit jeu. Il s'appelle Fausse Commune, et il va mettre à l'épreuve ta connaissance des régions françaises.

C'est gratuit, c'est absurde, c'est rapide, ça marche sur téléphone ou ordi.

⚠️ we are having issues with adding new users to the default knot.

if you are a new user and notice that no knots are available to create repos, just sit tight for a bit while we iron out these issues!

I've been quietly building kindling.wtf — a regenerative feed layer that removes cruelty without removing controversy.

The idea: your feed shouldn't be full of spite masquerading as reasonable commentary, but it also shouldn't sanitize away legitimate anger at injustice.

Very good take!
I think that's a massive difference between ATProto and for example the "build on the blockchain" hype, building on the blockchain did NOT let you do good UX, ATProto on the other end provide benefits UX/DevX benefits to building with it.

I'm looking for some feedback on a Chrome Extension that I made.

I wanted to explore the user trails concept from the Memex.

Trails - chromewebstore.google.com/detail/trail... - allows you to create your own links between pages entirely locally and have them maintained across navigations.

This is a great article, would recommend that everyone read.
This is an insightful but deeply upsetting article about why everyone in the US feels poor, and why the current political situation emerges as a direct result.

As we're all familiar, LLMs are generally not reproducible. That is, even if you put the same prompt in, you're going to keep getting different results out.
