Support got back within 5 minutes on a Sunday afternoon. Pretty impressive stuff.
Hey @fly.io! Would love if customers could manually increase their own machine limits ("i.e. I know what I'm doing"). Requiring an email to support is preventing us from taking advantage of fly's fantastic scaling :)

Iβve long said that a major factor in my choice of airline is WiFi. The fact that Air France now offers fast (and free!) Starlink means itβs now my usual go-to for flights to Europe. Fantastic work!
I wrote about the economics of same-day delivery:

Remember that content moderation is a miserable job: viewing the worst parts of the internet on repeat for 8 hours a day. The less humans have to intervene the more ethical content moderation becomes.

Is there any atproto API that returns the bare value of a record rather than the value syntax? I remember a while ago trying to find one and ended up just wrapping it with an XRPC endpoint.

β‘ We teamed up with Meta to deliver precompiled iOS builds in 0.81/SDK 54. You get:
β Faster builds: Compile RN once per release
β Smoother integrations: Easier to add RN into brownfield apps
β Future-proof: Prepares RN for migration from CocoaPods to Swift Package Manager

In the US, the gold standard is probably Amtraker, or asm.transitdocs.com. But Amtrak's terrible (undocumented) API means often a bad experience is passed on to the user. While Carto doesn't actually have location information on the trains, it manages to deliver a fantastic experience.
I think the hardest part about rail maps is bridging the gap between usability and information density β i.e. you want to be able to show a ton of information to advanced users while still making the site intuitive and easy to use. For example openrailwaymap.org vs. @piero.bsky.social's amtraker.com
Carto Tchoo by @nicolaswurtz.bsky.social is one of the coolest sites I've ever seen. Doing a rail tracking website well is really hard, and from what I can tell, he nailed every aspect of the experience.

There are so many reasons to love the Paris metro, but one of them is how quick stops are. The doors are open for less than 10 seconds at some stations.
This is what platform doors and high frequency enables! If trains are arriving every 4 minutes, missing a train isnβt a big deal.

Update: it's just okay. Not worth it for $90 IMO and the battery life isn't great. It's also much larger than I expected. But, I'm going to keep giving it a go and see what the one-week update is!
how do you manage to only post bangers
A seat back on a flight, showing a tv (displaying a frame from the show clueless with three high school students) and a credit card reader
Currently transported back to the 90s on my United flight β thereβs a credit card reader built into the seat back and theyβre showing the trailer for βClueless (1995)β which is wonderfully dated.
Oh that makes sense! I hope the busses were electric, underground diesel BRT sounds like a bit of a nightmare.
A view of the Seattle Metro βSymphonyβ station.
Anyone know why the Seattle Metro has such wide corridors in their stations? Possibly to accommodate a future express track or something?

STINSON BEACH: At 9:58 p.m. a woman said she was in hiding after learning "spiritually, through her tum tum," that a man was stalking and trying to kill her.
Running into the same issue on the official bsky.app PDS, though. Same w/ 'encoding: text/plain' :(

Ordered a tinypod (thetinypod.com) and will report back how it feels. I'm excited β I have basically stopped wearing my apple watch thanks to my Oura ring, but wish I could stop carrying my phone around. It *should* be able to do everything I want (Music, iMessage, etc.) but no YouTube or Twitter.
