      The AI hype train is on the fast track towards technofeudalism. This is why I keep asking people to look out the window and show me something different.
      
      Unfortunately enough people are along for the ride and don't care where we end up.

      not sure if you folks use claude code, but i personally found it very helpful to tell it stuff like "don't use bluesky apis for this unless there's a compelling reason, instead follow the AT protocol specs"

      Did someone say "particles?"  Fully rendered in OBS on the GPU. On stream we hit 10+ million particles at 60fps (the encoder on the other hand, was having some issues 🫠).  Hopefully this looks good here on BSky.
