   X has been doing this and it didn't seem particularly effective. There are still many bots on the platform. Also, someone with a lot of money can still get around this requirement. Bribing a government to get fake passports is possible

   I've dived head first into Bluesky and AT Proto in the last 2 months. The platform is amazing and I was able to grow an app from 0 to 30k users in that time[1]. I have also been long pondering what puts me off social media and how I co

   I've built my latest project[1] with Next.js and it's often felt pretty hectic to use. App vs. pages router, accessing cookies requiring different APIs between the client-side and the server side, env vars being accessed via `proc

   Thank you for the kind words, but even good CVs get lost in the great recruitment filter all the time. It's great to have a platform where you can interact directly with real engineers at various companies.

    Yes, it probably will. If it does then I will move to a new platform.

    I have stayed away from it for a while, but after my partner switched over to it I decided to delve deeper into it. The openess of Bluesky to developers is a breath of fresh air and the platform itself has some really great features. So I g

    It's not a myth. I got 2 amazing offers (one of which is now my job) via Twitter. I hope Bluesky can eventually offer the same.

    I don't mind getting shut down so much as I mind getting a fine for millions when my small little website doesn't make any money. But surely no right minded judge would do such a thing, right?

    None of this seems to describe exactly what the problem with this new act is. Can someone ELI5 what this new law does that means it's no longer safe to run your own forum?

    Well, I am not a native English speaker and it says 77% English (and 6% Chinese, 5% Spanish). I guess I should take that to mean that my English is pretty good.

    The algorithm repo hasn't been updated in more than a year. Who knows if it was ever even the real algorithm, but it certainly isn't now unless you believe that they haven't updated it in a year.
