If you're like Chris and understand a bit of the tech behind AT Proto but want to understand it at a deeper level, this episode is for you. How does it differ from straight up RSS and Mastodon, where is my identity being stored, how do I create a schema, what can be updated or modified later, is there going to be a PDS revolution, how does Standard.site fit into it all, and what else could we build with AT Proto?

Notion
Write custom tools for Notion Agents that generate assets, query live data, and hit any API. Listen for incoming webhooks from any app, then run workflows with Notion Agents, pages, databases, and external APIs.

All of this, on a hosted runtime. Workers are isolated sandboxes managed by Notion, so the code behind your syncs, tools, and workflows runs on our infra instead of your servers.

Chris & Dave have been challenged to not talk about AI this episode - do they succeed? How do I optimize tracking pixels in my web app, what's the best book on CMS and authoring experiences, picking the best tooling in Rails that won't be obsolete, SPF, DNS, and D-Marc, adding dark mode to a website, and dealing with good old fashioned F.A.R.T.
