FWIW these are based entirely on the firehose, which means it doesn't count lurkers. Our logged in DAU tends to be double the DAU of record-creators
So ~3 million DAU? Would you consider publishing your own statistics?

Bluesky doesn’t sound very decentralized to me.
The age verification is client side and can easily be bypassed with a third party client or even with a userscript https://gist.github.com/mary-ext/6e27b24a83838202908808ad528...
Bluesky's apps have the verification, but everything else using the protocol can just not implement it.
According to their own blog post, even after mitigations, the model still has an 11% attack success rate. There's still no way I would feel comfortable giving this access to my main browser. I'm glad they're sticking to a very limited rollout for now. (Sidenote, why is this page so broken? Almost everything is hidden.)

Are these old computers viable to use daily? Is there any advantage over using an emulator on more modern hardware? (Obviously not the point of this project.)
Between these kinds of optimizations, improved data center efficiency, and smaller models being more capable, I wonder how long it will be before someone manages to make a profitable AI business. Maybe when they race to train better models slows down and they don't need to constantly upgrade capacity.

Two questions in my mind:
1. Why is Google helping their largest competitor here?
2. What's does this mean for the OpenAI/Microsoft partnership?
biggestfan commented on What about using rel="share-url" to expose sharing intents? shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/08/... · Posted by u/edent
Does anyone even use share buttons? I always just copy the link, and it seems that anyone I see sharing things does the same. It feels more like a way for the social media companies to advertise/track, and those sites have been sending less and less traffic for years, so I wonder why every site still has them.
Based on job adverts, gambling is huge for Unity, even casino cabinets. It surprises me, you wouldn't think there'd be room for so many players in that market.
I would guess it's because of regulatory compliance. You really don't want to release slots with a major payout but, and if you do, you want to be able to throw the blame at Unity.
