Very interesting first hand account of breaking in Australia and how RayGun won the female breaking crown and went on to become an embarrassment that non-Dancers use to insult the sport.
It talks about how sports and hobbies that are not popular are difficult to do because they depend on the participants having money, and how lack of competition makes it difficult to reach world class levels.

Why the FUCK do SO MANY people feel entitled to have loud, lengthy (in some cases multiple) phonecalls, on a goddamn national bus route? #BusÉireann #PublicSpaces #Ireland

Could an Olympian face a decade in prison? David Hearn, a three-time Olympian, has been indicted for allegedly ripping sealant from the Reflecting Pool, a project prioritized by President Donald Trump. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro states the pool belongs to all Americans, and Hearn faces up to 10 years if convicted, though he denies the charges. Learn more about this unusual case. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/02/reflecting-pool-indictment-david-hearn-destruction-pirro.html #LegalNews #PublicSpaces #Olympian

During my visits it was heartening to see the library in active use by many people, to read the daily newspapers or to get out from under the hot sun for a while.

Had a scan through the videos from the #PublicSpaces conference - this has been my subject for the last 30 years: https://video.publicspaces.net/c/pubconf/videos
My takeaway is that there is a lot of activity, but not much movement. A lot of discussion, frameworks and technical thinking, but no real questions - What kind of #openweb culture are we actually building?
Too often we end up with the same cycle of
more complexity → more infrastructure → more maintenance → more dependency → more #techshit.The problem is not that people are building things, building is good. The problem is when the culture keeps producing paths that push more mess into the commons, then the people build alternatives have to spend their energy cleaning up, mediating, and rebuilding the native social layer that was ignored.
The #OMN question is - Are we creating tools that strengthen communities, or are we creating more technical problems that communities have to carry?
The #openweb was never only about technology. It was about participation, trust, shared ownership and social infrastructure. Without that, we just keep producing more mess that someone has to compost later.
The work we need is growing the culture that makes better tech possible.

At the #PublicSpaces conference there was a session on 'Growth and Sustainability of the Open Social Web' where I asked Rose Wang from #Bluesky a question about the $100M on VC funding.
Apparently it is a '3 year runway' that can pay for (only) 40 people and other expenses. Sounds like half a million dollar salary to me per person to me.
The other interesting part I got from this is that "they are focused on growth" and that is all. Where can I find the investors that are willing to pay millions and only have me focus on growth?
Nice thing about #PeerTube (which this is hosted on) is that I can give you exactly the link to the interesting part:

at #publicspaces I was talking about the importance of messy human voices (w/r/t @[email protected] specifically but also in general) & one of the other panelists said "we can make ai messy too" & ok but why? I believe there are uses for this tech b/c scientists I trust have told me so. great! but

VPRO's 3voor12 website heeft blijkbaar nieuwe vormgeving. De laatste keer dat ik keek had het nog een eigen smoel. Nu is het ontwerp in de stijl '13 in een dozijn'. Maar dat is smaak & over smaak valt te twisten.
Waar niet over getwist kan worden is dat het ongelooflijk is, dat de VPRO na 8jr @publicspaces nog steeds alleen maar #bigtech socials toont. 😩 🤢
Hoezo blijft een publiek omroep reclame maken voor #bigtech? Als PublicSpaces partner!? 🙄

@j12t Yeah, I think so too. The #PublicSPaces conference (in particular the unconference and coffeebreaks) was also inspiring to think again from different angles about what our roles may be in an online social network.

Interesting insight from Bluesky's COO.
"I think the reality is $100 million is a three-year runway."
EDIT: Now that the live stream is over, you can find the video here:

The relevant part is at 37:57.

"It has become much easier to make a new social app. That also opens the possibility to make new business models possible. Subscription, affiliate etc. etc. They can be sustainable.
Ads in curated feeds are not the only way."
