“Let me give you a word of the philosophy of reform. The whole history of the progress of human liberty shows that all concessions yet made to her august claims have been born of earnest struggle. The conflict has been exciting, agitating, all-absorbing, and for the time being, putting all other tumults to silence. It must do this or it does nothing. If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.” - Frederick Douglass, 1857
diVine, White Noise, Cashu, Shakespeare, Flotilla, Marmot, Bitchat… just when I think I couldn’t get more bullish on the #OtherStuff, the list keeps growing. LFG nostr:nprofile1qqs96wghq6tf0re8f7qms56dmn8heh895hq2dxafr74e7rj5x662hvgpzcs8wumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhx6mmnw3ezuur4vgeep8pr
Maybe Santa shouldn’t have dropped his cargo at the first sign of an imperial starship?
If you feel like you don’t belong in this world, it might be because you’re here to build a new one.
Here at Shakespeare, we know it gets messy when you have a detached HEAD.
That's why in the newest release of Shakespeare, we detect when you have a detached HEAD and switch to a new branch automatically.

What about Nearly Headless Nick?
Yesterday, doing Thanksgiving dinner prep in our kitchen, my daughters are discussing who is making what. Elder daughter notes that their Uncle Paul is making the pumpkin pie using frozen pie shells. Younger daughter responds, “Yeah, he’s vibe coding the crust.” 💀💀💀

In the last 6 months, here’s some of what AOS has accomplished…
• Marmot protocol
• Shakespeare, a Nostr-based AI coding agent
• diVine showing mainstream breakthrough potential
• Bitchat (iOS + Android) supporting people in freedom movement
• Major upgrades to Cashu libraries
• Flotilla as the Foundry’s first external project partnership
• A real innovation lab with traction + PMF
• The first Nostr Builder Experience Survey
• The core team is connected, engaged, and actively collaborating together
TL;DR: The kids are alright.

“For various reasons, many mutual aid organizations have not implemented adequate security measures to protect their technological and financial systems. This leaves their networks, communities, and assets vulnerable to cyber threats… By empowering mutual aid groups with practical cybersecurity protocols, we aim to fortify their operations and protect the communities they serve.”

A n automatic conversion technology developed by Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology researchers transforms legacy C code into Rust, addressing C’s structural vulnerabilities. The work mathematically proves the correctness of the translations, unlike methods that rely on large language models. The approach includes converting key C features such as mutexes, output parameters, and unions into Rust while preserving behavior. The researchers also are exploring verification of quantum-computer programs and automation of WebAssembly correctness.
