Big question, Why ATProtocol from #BlueSkySocial #PBC’s mouth instead of Mastodon and ActivityPub?:

“Why not use ActivityPub? #ActivityPub is a federated social networking technology popularized by #Mastodon.

Account #portability is a major reason why we chose to build a separate protocol. We consider portability to be crucial because it protects #users from sudden bans, server shutdowns, and policy disagreements. Our #solution for portability requires both signed data repositories and #DIDs, neither of which are easy to retrofit into ActivityPub. The migration #tools for ActivityPub are comparatively limited; they require the original server to provide a redirect and cannot migrate the user's previous data.

Another major reason is #scalability. #ActivityPub depends heavily on delivering messages between a wide network of small-to-medium sized nodes, which can cause individual #nodes to be flooded with traffic and generally struggles to provide global views of #activity.”

Short version, WE CANT CONTROL YOU.

OpenAI says it needs 'more capital than we’d imagined' as it lays out for-profit plan

OpenAI said in a blog post Friday that heading into 2025, "we have to become an enduring company," which requires changing its structure.

CNBC

Interessant article on argumenta que la descentralització s'ha d'entendre no només des d'una perspectiva tecnològica, sinó també en termes de distribució del poder.

L'article conclou que, tot i que #Bluesky té el potencial de ser descentralitzat, actualment la major part del poder està concentrat en #Bluesky #PBC. No obstant això, l'estructura explícita dels punts de control podria facilitar una transició cap a una gestió més democràtica en el futur.

Remember that @Posit is a #PBC (public benefit corporation). They want to bring open-source, code-first tools to the enterprise. So they have a mix of free open-source tools and paid enterprise tools. #PositConf2024 #RStats #PyData 🧵 6/17

Hey everyone. My sister, who is a likely match for me (for the liver transplant) is trying to move to Florida as that would be less expensive than the multiple trips she'd have to here for all the testing. She's out in Washington State. About as far from me as you can get in the continental states.

She's started a gofundme to try and help get her to Florida sooner, than later. Which also means me getting my transplant sooner than later.

If you can spare anything, thank you so much. If you can't, please share the post.

And in the photo? The one furthest left is me. Then my older sister, the oldest sister (one trying to move) and my little sister. And in the front are my 2 cousins.

Thank you so much for anything you can do to help us out. 💜
