On 10 October, my 2017 Apple MacBook Air will be losing the ability to support @signalapp.
What are the best options to install Linux for browsing and Signal?

TIL that geth accepts a live verbosity change over its IPC socket.
Run this:
/opt/bin/geth attach --exec 'debug.verbosity(3)'

In 2026, voice messages should be transcribed and summarised, and perhaps even translated for the recipient's convenience.

Right? And summarise! People want to talk, but I would rather read a summary or skim a full transcription than listen for 3 mins.
I'm processing audio through whisper/qwen running in a @Livepeer capability, paid in ETH micropayments. Ingest, distribution & storage on @ethswarm.

And I just fell for a decoy... fooled by an AI who had even told me it was going to try to fool me.
My agent builds decoys into the human-in-the-loop testing in my current work.
1-in-4 it will be trying to catch me out by feeding me something that isn't actually correct.
If I miss, it gets logged as information about detectability rather than as a black mark.
That's v cool.

Pull requests exist to ration a maintainer's attention.
git never needed them — git request-pull predates GitHub. You publish your tree; maintainers pull what they want.
If agents do the evaluating, attention isn't scarce, then how much of GitHub survives that?

Two 9s of uptime for a service building the future of humanity simply isn't good enough.
Also, interesting to see the 100% uptime for "Claude for Government". So *that's* where all the capacity goes! The state sucking even more resources.

Happiness is when you ask all of your Claude Code sessions "what specifically do you need from me right now" and they all reply with "Nothing".

"Not your keys, not your coins": solved.
"Not your node, not your data": nobody's solved it.
You still trust a company to tell you your own balance.
Sovereign Infrastructure hub at @EFDevcon Mumbai.
Need a co-host to run it. India-based ideally.

The role: own the floor for four days: staffing, schedule, volunteers.
Doesn't need to be technical; the content comes from the projects.
Needs someone who can run a room. I bring the programme, the introductions and the proposal side, and I'll be at the event throughout.
