Owning your computer is a responsibility. It's one we want to make bearable, particularly as our data, context, and everything else about our digital lives is being scooped up by anyone and anything that can get their hands on it.
In this month's Contributor Spotlight, @sicdev_pilnup, founder of @_dalten collective, @OctuVentures, and current head of @urbitfoundation shared his perspective on why taking on such an ambitious task is particularly worthwhile in the Age of AI and how Urbit can help take our digital experiences from feeding personal context into MEGACORP systems, and into a future of collective intelligence with our peers.

It is a long time coming, but your urbit's networking is getting faster.
408k is now live and includes the "Directed Messaging" upgrade.
In order to ensure a clean rollout, the upgrade is coming in two phases. Phase one (live now) is an opt-in toggle, while phase 2 (release 408k-1) will turn it on by default.
If you would like to start the migration immediately, confirm you have the correct %base hash (check with `+vats %base, =verb %.y`): "0v1p.bd1ud.hribk.6619t.70jni.n06f4.9il00.voegf.kh8i9.8se4n.124s8"
And then use the command:
`:hood &ahoy-set-hash 0v1p.bd1ud.hribk.6619t.70jni.n06f4.9il00.voegf.kh8i9.8se4n.124s8`
If you aren't so inclined, you can just wait for the next OTA to be upgraded automagically.
While Directed Messaging is the headline feature of this release, 408k also makes building and compiling Hoon 15% faster, cryptosuite updates for @GroundwireBTC compatibility, and much more.
