Healthy debates are still possible, it seems. 🙏

I’m still a fan of Bluesky and its community, but for me, Mastodon is the place to be right now.
1. Most tech people are on Mastodon, resulting in much more interesting content and conversations.
2. Mastodon’s model of decentralization, despite its many flaws, is better and more sustainable than Bluesky’s. This is especially true in today’s political and legal climate (US–EU split, various age-verification laws, …).
I’ve decided to stop using Bluesky and continue only with Mastodon after using both for a year and a half.
It’s quite simple:
“Once something is treated as provisional, people stop taking full responsibility for it. […] When engineers believe the system is temporary, they invest less in it. They stop fixing small things. They stop deepening their understanding. They stop improving quality-of-life issues that don’t obviously pay off right now.”

“GPT‑5.3‑Codex is our first model that was instrumental in creating itself.”
I think this is the most important sentence of the GPT‑5.3-Codex announcement.
If you’re producing structured documents, need to generate PDFs from your application, or just prefer a markup format over visual editing, check it out!
On the surface, Typst is a markup language similar to Markdown, just more extensible. But in its core, it’s a well-designed programming language optimized for creating and manipulating structured documents.
You can think of it as modern LaTeX — with a cleaner design and without infinite layers of macros and cruft.
I’ve been using Typst lately, and I really like it!
