Hermes Agent is live and operational on a Nintendo 3DS.
Hold A to talk, and she answers out loud while doing real work on my computer. She shows what she's working on, asks for anything that needs approval, and can see through the 3DS camera.
It's been fun putting these experiments together, and if you'd like to try it out, the repo link is below.
I included a Hermes skill so your agent can set it up and pair it for you. Have Fun!

For anyone interested, I have ported @jamesonhodge's Chimera vocal synth to @p5xjs on @openprocessing, and have also added a puppeteering option via MediaPipe: https://t.co/KEUOasQQ8c
here’s the awful truth. pumpfun had a chance to do an airdrop when they first announced it, but the reality is the market was fucked, and the metrics with which they would’ve qualified people for their airdrop were also fucked.
volume and token launches would have likely been determining factors.
if they were able and willing to actually deliver the airdrop now, they would have to base it off of who’s actually utilizing the features on the platform as it stands today. even if those features are flawed and do nothing to change the systemic issues that plague the trenches.
what this means is that the same rapists who benefit from the competitions, callout campaigns, the gatcha roll out, etc, those are the same people who will stand to receive the largest airdrop if it ever happens.
they can’t make everyone happy, look how that played out for $Pengu, the only thing that makes sense is to disproportionately reward people who play the game that they’ve laid out
you have to play their game to win the the biggest prize. even if that means selling your soul.
let that sink in.

“So, like we made 11,000 and all of them are handpicked. Like we didn’t leave any of that up to generation or randomness.
All of them, whether it’s the commons or the rares, we had like a row of two by three, and it showed so it showed six cards at once, and we could decide immediately if we liked one or if we wanted to regenerate.
So that was a key part of it.”

just saw this lol. fair! i had to get my point out as fast as possible before pump changed sentiment with some other scheme. id much rather record an audio note like you did.
and yea it would def need to be kicked off by some big name just like anything before the network effect would take off. maybe someone who isnt on pumps payroll.
sadly the "if you cant beat em' join em'" mentality is just whats going to keep ct in a chokehold until it spirals to zero.
I finally got a couple of pumps biggest KOL’s to give feedback on the conviction mechanism. I’m thankful for them engaging!
Like I mentioned the threat modeling on this idea is incomplete, but I realized that my first article left a few things unclear:
imo, callouts are a form of soft conviction while this mechanism introduces hard conviction. you can have both. and ideally the token you buy does!
what I’m proposing is for people to lock up *external* collateral, not to to lock up the tokens they own.
✨
Other questions brought up were, why would I lock up anything? Why am I being punished for selling? What happens when outside factors put me in a position where I feel like selling earlier than I planned?
well, there’s a big difference between applying this mechanism to the genesis of a token, where the most convicted holders may choose to also lock up external collateral around their bags.
compared to expecting people to lock up collateral around coins that have already launched which are likely already compromised by bad actors with tons of supply. obviously that carries more risk.
also I intentionally left out the flexibility around the mechanism. it’s up to you to decide how long you promise to hold on to your position. you can make adjustments to your positions, but when you do those become signals that everyone else can see (low conviction). or you can be a chad, locking up your collateral for a longer duration, forgoing any flexibility (high conviction). it’s adaptable to your trading style and risk profile. what’s important is finding a way to measure reputation on something other than how persuasive someone with influence can be.
as far as outside factors like market downturns, just look at tokens like $NIO. it was green when the rest of the market was bleeding red. obvs it was thematic and viral with a ton of bag work, callouts, and KOL pushing it, but it just goes to show that you can create safe harbor if people have enough soft conviction around a coin. now imagine if that coin had additional hard conviction backing it. 😏
the other point I wanna make is that this is not just about the individual trader and their conviction. it’s about the entire aggregated conviction collateral around a token. And what could potentially make a signal like this so powerful and very different than callouts alone.

if you're too dumb to read the article, i cut down Episode 35 of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure for you. “D'Arby the Gambler, Part 2”
to me it perfectly encapsulates the power of true conviction, even when you're playing a game thats rigged against you. 💊
D'Arby is a professional gambler who exploits his opponents. Jotaro doesn't beat him by playing his game better. he changes the stakes until the man who thought he controlled the table is the one afraid to play.
and here's the interesting part: Jotaro doesn't even know if he has the winning hand.
that's the distinction I'm trying to make.
conviction isn't about being right. it's about what you're willing to put on the line when you could be wrong.
the trenches have plenty of people trying to convince you they have the winning hand. but none of them have the balls to put their money where their mouth is...
