@skorfmann.comSeems like overall engagement on Bluesky is declining slowly, but steadily. Is there a theory to why? #atproto #bluesky

@skorfmann.comTIL about Testcontainers while looking into @restate.dev

@skorfmann.comPerforming content preserving modifications (e.g. rotating by x degrees) to PDFs programmatically is a surprisingly deep rabbit hole 🐇 After trying a bunch of approaches with mediocre results (blurry, quadrupled in size, ...) qpdf seems to do exactly that - and it's actually permissive open source 🎉

@skorfmann.comNext Tuesday the "AI Native DevCon" is happening organized by the folks of @ainativedev.bsky.social - It's remote & free. Seems like something worth checking out if you're into that space. ai-native-devcon-2025.heysummit.com

@skorfmann.comAnd Cursor just raised 900 million 🔥 a bit weird though, that this is justified by the rapidly growing MRR, since I’d guess most of that revenue is directly going to OpenAI & Claude. But perhaps that’s good enough already, in particular when it’s the same investors behind all of them

@skorfmann.comSounds at least partly like something which could be built on top of atproto 👀
Sebastian Korfmann
@skorfmann.comAnyone else from the atproto bubble going to be at @re-publica.com ? #atproto #bluesky would there be interest in a meetup around that time?

@skorfmann.comWhtat's the state of serverless full text search? Is there something where I can index a bunch of objects in S3 and run this in a Lambda somehow?
