Imagine reading this and the going and building gambling apps. https://werd.io/why-the-open-social-web-matters-now/

A lot of you aren’t gonna like this one https://polluterofminds.com/blog/falling-out-of-love-with-farcaster/

There is no such thing as effective decentralization in a social context because the app layer will never be able to be decentralized and the app layer is where people congregate, not the protocol layer. https://azhdarchid.com/delusions-of-a-protocol/

Get bounced from the playoffs and lose a lawsuit. Rough week for Tati https://x.com/mccannsportslaw/status/1974215106322993622?s=46

Just a reminder: instead of players figuring out how to hit it the other way (or bunt), MLB decided to ban the shift. https://x.com/bbgreatmoments/status/1974229263202066809?s=46

I don’t think my father, the inventor of Toaster Strudel, would appreciate this.

I’m increasingly struggling with the concept of AI as a potential net positive for the world. This is a big change over the last year and a half for me. I believe it has utility. I also believe we’ve jumped the shark on utility into something worse. https://dlo.me/archives/2025/10/03/you-should-be-worried/

Stop bitching about web apps and instead build more web apps. Native apps are never going to be open enough. https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/apple-takes-down-ice-tracking-app-after-pressure-from-ag-bondi

This almost surely violates MLB’s license for their API but I love it anyway https://github.com/paaatrick/playball

Really love this. Warts are just proof of backwards compatibility https://entropicthoughts.com/you-want-technology-with-warts

I love @stevedylandev’s Blog Feeds idea. It reminded me that earlier this summer I did something similar to build up a list of RSS feeds before I eventually started plugging them into a feed reader. Never thought to share it like Steve suggests though. https://bearblog.stevedylan.dev/feeds/

Yup. cc: @stevedylandev https://blog.burkert.me/posts/in_praise_of_syndication/

Maybe it’s just my following or for you feed but for the supposedly large libertarian leaning population on Farcaster, I see very little conversation or concern over things like this. Are Farcaster “one-issue” voters? https://www.reuters.com/world/us/white-house-sets-hiring-foreign-enrolment-terms-colleges-get-funding-advantage-2025-10-02/

Hang it in the Louvre

A 10am PT start time for a playoff game is insane
