Grassroots community is slow and gruelling, most sparks go out before they make a fire. That’s the reason it works later while failing early and often. Early Crafters make things and they fail to serve the market in space and time. Those failures have been built to travel with open source & when the combination clicks in methodologies then the revolution holds. When the primitives to scale between individuals take root, when the practioners get more tools that travel; The wild fire will regenerate the landscape. View quoted note →

Be the one willing to fall flat on your face, though it’s not a short fall from grace. You may split; Like the blueberries propagating in a slash. **The system requires the fall.** Your seeds of wisdom are meant to grow tall. The volunteer plant will emerge; The same spirit with a more resilient skin. Winter ends; Remember the sounds of spring. 🦅 View quoted note →

I’ve built an interoperable gate to enforce this when my emotions fail me. ⚒️ View quoted note →

GM Nostr! Homeschool co-op was cancelled this morning, so I got to sleep in and get extra cuddles. Life is good.

Different Clients, One Conversation: A new builder’s questions about handoffs, participation and the people who keep things working.

NostrHub — Build Nostr Together

NostrHub is where the developer community collaborates on building the Nostr protocol — discover, draft, and discuss NIPs together.

“I don’t know, what do you think?” Respond this way to your kids and your spouse often and everyone will be happier (and become more resilient).

GM Nostr! Decentralize everything. After a bit of morning sun, I’m bootlegging my first phone to install GrapheneOS and then my zone ecosystem. Looking forward to testing my idea for Salt Box Home phones. ☎️ What is your favourite part of your set up?

Builders familiar with domain-driven design will recognize part of Codetry: language belongs to a domain, and boundaries matter. The industry has their own system. The professional has their own system. You have your own system. I have my own system. We need to have portable interoperability without overwriting on either side of we intend to protect human transmission signals. Codetry’s naming methodology guides who gets to prove a translation, what meaning it loses, and when it must be refused.

People need practical ways to maintain self-governance while still interacting with systems they do not control. Some people have exited. Some are prepared to, living a foot in & foot out. Codetry is meant to help with that in-between: maintaining your own meaning and governance while making specific, bounded crossings into other systems.

GM Nostr and Happy Thanksgiving weekend for Canadians. What’s on your menu? We’ve landed on roasted chicken, prime rib, quinoa with chanterelles, garden potatoes & carrots with gravy. Kids are making the appetizers (meat, cheese, stuffed mushrooms) and “entertainment”. Grandparents bring salad and dessert. 🍮

Enjoyed some moose ribeye with chanterelles tonight & we will use freeze dried mushrooms for the rest of the year. How’s your pantry & freezer looking?

The intermediary becomes the problem A tool that protects people from institutional capture can become another institution demanding their dependence. Codetry resists that possibility. If the method requires my ongoing approval, my interpretation, or my platform to remain useful, we haven’t solved the handoff problem for communities.
