The FIPS public test mesh grew to 150 live nodes this week. GM β˜•οΈ to all my mesh buddies. I know that whoever and wherever you are, you’re just an npub away.

GM β˜• I've learned way too much about Bluetooth in the last week, but FIPS nodes can now auto-discover each other and peer over BLE to create or join a FIPS mesh network. No IP needed 😏

Sometimes, all you can be is one of those small, newfangled, warm-blooded mammals just staying out of the way of those giant dinosaurs fighting among themselves until the meteor arrives.

The FIPS (Free Internetworking Peering System) repository is unavailable from Github currently. We've mirrored it here: We were attempting to transition it from my personal github space to a new organization we had just set up for multiple fips repositories, which succeeded, but then the new org got flagged by some automated process, and the original is no longer in my account. It's under appeal. This is why we Nostr.

GM. β˜• Don't apologize for using coding assistants to increase your productivity, but remember--they aren't accountable for what you publish, you are. The difference between AI slop and 10x output is design, oversight, testing, and standing by what you make. Proper software engineering hasn't changed, it's just gotten...amazingly easier.
