Building @FreenetOrg - the antidote to Big Tech | Founder of | 🇮🇪🇺🇸

[Ian Clarke @Sanity]

@perrymetzger Yes, freenet-git already starts there: repo URLs are derived from public keys, and only the matching private key can update them. More generally, identity on Freenet is cryptographic by default. There’s more depth here (delegates, ghostkeys), but that’s the foundation.

[Ian Clarke @Sanity]

@perrymetzger Fair, freenet-git is just the git layer for now. But it’s built on https://t.co/RjQtYPdoPd, a platform designed for radical interoperability: systems and components interoperate by default, so PRs, issues, discussions, wiki/CMS, search, chat, etc. can all compose.

@odbol @perrymetzger Thank you! LMK if you have any questions.

@RousselotSylva1 Victims testified that rapists cited quran versus during their abuse, called them "kuffar" - a derogatory term for non-muslims. The religious element is undeniable.

I'm 49 years old, this is the worst thing I've ever read.

@Jason @JoshuaBaer Terrible to hear, Josh was one of the first people I got to know when I moved to Austin two decades ago and he was a huge help to me in my career, always helpful and supportive.

[Ian Clarke @Sanity]

I just heard that my friend @JoshuaBaer passed away last night in a plane crash. Josh was one of the first people I got to know when I moved to Austin almost 20 years ago, a terrible loss.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

JUST IN: Meta’s CTO says morale is near “the worst it’s ever been” — leadership will offer increased snack budgets to lift spirits.

@rtenews I've lived in the US for 26 years as an immigrant, I've never felt "intimidated" by a US flag - that's absurd.

@awesomekling 5 years sober this September, I remember thinking I couldn't function without alcohol.

@unclebobmartin I've found Rust's type system works extremely well for agents.

I recently migrated a web UI from Next.js to Dioxus and spend a lot less time in the edit-build-debug loop. Strong static typing gives agents much better feedback when they're wrong.

@thekinocorner Yes, and everyone will believe what they see on TV after the anchor assures them it's not AI generated.

Disclosure Day was entertaining but no new ideas and a rather quaint and outdated view of how the media works.

@LundukeJournal Moral of the story:

Don't let sociopaths take over your open source project

[Ian Clarke @Sanity]

@m2jr Yes, we created this repo for Claude Code skills which we encourage all contributors to use. Non-coders have used it to create apps on Freenet.

@perrymetzger @dhh We've been using AI to estimate value and cost to incoming gh issues for a few months now too. Uses rank ordering (ASAP algorithm) to identify the issues that deliver the most bang for the buck. But need to be careful not to substitute AI judgement for human taste.
