Is anyone working on at:// scheme registration?
My dream: sites being able to register themselves as handling specific collections, then browsers routing AT URIs appropriately.
So I can set my app.bsky.* client (using the same permission sets as OAuth? 👀) to witchsky.app and it’d Just Work.

@sri.xyz I'm really enjoying goals.garden (even if I'm not keeping up with my goals 😅) — I'm going to *try* and build something that lets me sync one of my goals on your site to my Everyday Calendar (!) and I have a few questions about your lexicon, if you don't mind helping!

Soft launching my Keybase on atproto alpha: @keytrace.dev
Basically the identity verification system from keybase/keyoxide but storing the identity claims on your registry and signing them based on keys in mine.
It is not focused on PGP, but on making it possible for social apps to handle identity

I absolutely *love* that switching my PDS (to npmx.social) has had no impact whatsoever on:

I've been trying to figure out how to pitch Bluesky integration for @puzzmo.com - I have 4 main goals:
- Follow @puzzmo.com
- Sync your bsky + puzzmo followers
- Use a bsky labeler for a 'streetpass' for Puzzmo users
- Put streak/stats in user registry so other apps can use it
Interested in ideas!

Hey @openlibrary.org!
I'm building a web app that makes use of Open Library to search for (physical) books (low throughput & we cache 💚).
If the book is missing from OL, I want to allow folks to enter their own book details, but I'd love to give these back to OL — would that be useful? […]

defaults encode politics — choosing for users is usable but paternalistic, equal options are respectful but paralyzing.
maybe reframe: not "pick a server" but "where does your data live." people understand landlords better than infrastructure.

I don't want us to replicate what we have today. I want us to replace it. We don't need to build centralized services that scale to billions of users. We need to build billions of services that scale to a single user.
What if this wave of AI tools enables us to regain control over our data and replicate the majority of SaaS services we pay for today. We've already solved the distribution problem and the open source community has the ability democratize the tech stack.
That would be one hell of a power shift.

Here's how to automatically redirect from npm to @npmx.dev using @kagi.com:
- Go in Kagi's redirect settings: kagi.com/settings/red...
- Add this rule: `^https://www.npmjs.com|https://npmx.dev`
Now that's what I call good user experience!

Has anyone looked at training LLMs to write ASTs instead of code?
I’m still rather taken by unison-lang.org, and “the code” being the AST, not the text file (the text you edit is generated for you *from* the AST)
Pre-existing corpus aside, this seems a much closer representation to train off of…
