A little offended Grammarly didn't make a sloppelganger of me

so awesome! This is the way it's meant to be.

an email with the header "Opt out" from me to expertoptout@superhuman.com. Body text: Hi there. No idea if I am one of your experts, but I’d rather not be. You see, I do actually edit people and I don’t need your hallucination machine ruining my bad reputation. Thanks Liz

I write emails! thanks to @caseynewton.bsky.social for embarrassing Grammarly into doing the bare fucking minimum www.platformer.news/grammarly-ex...

Thank you for having the courage to build, change and improve things despite the critique which is often useful but sometimes insane.

I love this feed.

This is hugely positive for the whole ecosystem. @jay.bsky.team has been and will continue to be the spiritual leader for AT Proto while @tonischneider.bsky.social will bring his deep experience in scaling open ecosystems to help the Atmosphere reach a new level of growth and sustainability. 👏

Me as well!

"Gravity Falls" 10th Anniversary Drone Show at Emerald City Comic-Con YouTube video by Laughing Place

Ahhh I missed the Gravity Falls drone show in Seattle last night but somebody wonderful posted it on YouTube! www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLMX...

X is a fascist propaganda website.

And while I'm at it, this is also one of my very favorite #SNL performances of all time. Pure artistry at the highest level from Kendrick Lamar and his band. Bonus: He actually wore contacts to black out his eyes for this.

This really is one of the very best SNL performances I've ever seen. Kendrick Lamar is awesome and the sound stage is incredibly well designed.

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

The first rule of War Club is that you do not talk about War Club.

In meantime, try going into your feed settings and turning on "minimize politics" and "minimize news". I tried it and it seems to focus the feed a lot.

Thanks for sending this. Yes, we need a way better account model for the social web.

Good to know! CCing @gregscallan.com to see if there's anything we can do to support Akkoma instances.

Yes, this is something we're working on. Will take a bit longer but being able to Keep On Topic for more topics is coming.

AI bros are COOKED!

I created this entire sequence with my camera, using human skills. Something like this would have cost dozens of dollars in prompting, but for me it was completely free.

Google ends its 30 percent app store fee and welcomes third-party app stores Google is changing how it collects fees on the Play Store, and making it easier to use third-party app stores and billing systems.

Epic losing the App Store case against Apple but winning against Google which is technically more open is a great lesson in setting expectations.

Apple never set the expectation it was open while Google claimed to be but actually wasn’t in practice.

This was a fun discussion, though I basically had to keep saying "well, that depends" or "we'd need to dig into the specifics" because it's easy to make broad general statements that hide the realities of the law here. Also why I'll never be a politician.

No Democrat should vote for a single penny of a military appropriation for the Iran War until they first get to vote on a Declaration of War.

IRGC Destroys Second US THAAD System in Gulf, Wipes Out UAE Radar and $1.1 Billion Qatar Early Warning Shield — Iran Declares Missile Dominance - Defence Security Asia IRGC precision strikes reportedly destroy a second US THAAD system, its UAE radar, and Qatar’s $1.1 billion early warning system, exposing fractures in America’s Gulf missile defence architecture and ...

so Iran has apparently knocked out and destroyed / disabled to some extent two U.S. THAAD batteries

This is a massive deal. Aside from the expense, this is not a weapon system we just have a ton of lying around. You don't replace these easily.

Love it when our nation’s defense contractors all spend their Friday nights subtweeting each other about killing everyone in the world

BREAKING: War on Iran starts.

Israel has just hit Tehran.

Why ‘Playing It Safe’ In Your Career Doesn’t Pay with VC Bill Gurley Podcast Episode · On with Kara Swisher · February 26 · 1h 3m

Of course, I’m so very biased because I’m a superfan of @karaswisher.bsky.social, but this episode was beyond fantastic. Super meaningful and insight-triggering questions (and answers). So worth it, and love all the positivities we can get.

Thank you Kara💕
