Mostly inactive on X. Might still show up in spaces from time to time. Find me on Discord, Github or IRL.

So far so good. No one has noticed yet.
First part of the day: fixing bugs. Second part of the day: writing bugs, so I can carry on the next day.

Aiken v1.1.24 is now available 🎁, and with it, new (major) versions of the stdlib (v4.0.0) and fuzz (v3.0.0) libraries. This coordinated update introduces a new primitive type to the language: Value, to work more efficiently with multi-assets quantities. What else? 👇

✅ A new module in the standard library to work with `Value` and the new builtins. ✅ Important fixes around type unification, in particular around opaque types. ✅ Reduced memory usage and increased compiler performance when dealing with deeply nested data-structures. ✅ More robust type checking and parsing, in particular around stack overflow. ✅ Better errors and test failure reporting, in particular for Dict and Dict-like types such as `Pairs` (or Value!) And more...! See the full release notes.

For those interested in the build/recipe github.com/KtorZ/amaru-a7z-b… The repository also contains a little iOS application and systemd services to monitor and operate the node over bluetooth.
On the left, iPhone SE. On the right, Ledger Nano. In the middle, Cardano full node, a.k.a. Amaru.

Cardano node diversity is no longer just an ambition, it is becoming real! On the 6th October in Singapore and online, we are hosting "Cardano Diversity Celebration Day" We would love to have all Cardano node teams share their vision for a more resilient network and a stronger protocol, and discuss when things will happen 👀 You can register here 👇 luma.com/x9dm535u

Does your cardano node have Bluetooth? Because mine does.

We are happy to showcase that we have a beta release of a Cardano Relay node! 🎉 You can see below Amaru sending a transaction on mainnet successfully and get a first look at how many resources it uses Hint: running Grafana has a higher memory footprint than Amaru 😉

Amaru be like. Why do we need Leios again 🤨?

Final draft. Thanks for all the feedback 🙏
Hello! I am looking for feedback from Cardano SPOs and devs; this is a first "draft". 😶 thoughts?

If you ever wondered what the engineering team at CF is doing sometimes, here's a snippet and good read from Pawel on BLS. It's arguably one of the most powerful thing we have on Cardano today, and it's heavily underused. So it deserves some spotlight!
Cardano smart contracts can verify thousands of signatures for the cost of one. No oracle, no external service. BLS12-381 elliptic curves run natively in every Cardano contract. These primitives are production-ready. The new guide shows what's possible: cardanofoundation.org/blog/a…
