Explaining living in Quebec to people is like “ya it’s ethnonationalist and socialist.. ya it’s nationalist and socialist… but it’s also woke. They gave me $3k for being poor once and you can get good art grants but the language police can search your work phone. I like it here”

I’m convinced we’ll look back on much of today’s enterprise AI adoption the way we look at Microsoft Copilot next to Claude, ChatGPT, or Hermes
Constrained and incremental compared to what AI-native companies will build, and how differently they will operate.
Huge opportunity for startups

I don't think many folks know you can *programmatically* create, deploy loops in Claude/your agent to run remotely.
Loops ~ some goal + schedule.
Use this skill to guide a session that designs and builds them.

Releasing our engineering skills!
These are skills we use for rapid, secure, and organized development.
We love using /to-prd, /to-issues + /to-invariants and /to-conformance. Try it out!

We created our own implementation of ax and agent substrate for GKE Autopilot.
Each sandbox process runs as its own gVisor thread alongside our existing k8s pods. Autopilot will seamlessly scale horizontally and vertically.
No need for external Sandbox SaaS 👍

Event discovery is broken. I'm building the only tool you need to find the things you want to do.
The site is live and operational (beta) for NYC, LA, São Paulo, and Berlin. Try it out, I'd love to hear your feedback.
Share this with a friend you want to do something with.

Four things we solved for this on @makechainnet:
1. Deterministic merges. (parents, patches, strategy) → hash via BLAKE3. Anyone can recompute and check.
e.g. A wrong squash produces a wrong hash — the server can't hide it, and any client catches it automatically.
2. Signed intent. The author signs a capability token over {source, target, strategy, constraints}.
Any merge that deviates fails verification at every node. So there's no surface for server-side "reinterpretation."
3. BLS-certified inclusion. The validator set attests your op is in the canonical DAG. And any client verifies the cert + Merkle proof without an archive node.
4. All messages are part of an append-only, content-addressed history. A bad merge can be superseded, never silently rewritten. Detection is local and instant for users, agents, build systems. Plus QMDB inclusion/exclusion proofs.
You won't need an email four hours later.
DM if this makes sense to you; we're hiring.
GitHub will see more of these as the internet scales with AI.

Our first Makechain Improvement Proposals (MIP) are up for discussion:
MIP-2 supports "Light Clients"

huge!!! @heavygweit and @christopherwxyz have been GRINDING and I can’t wait to see what else is in store
We're excited to drop our SPECIFICATION.md for Makechain: a protocol for making things.
We have a ton to share over the next few weeks: demos, apps, agents, onramps, and so much more built on top of this new network!

🚨 LIVE AUCTION ALERT! 🚨
i’m very excited to announce that i have just listed chromophone, a very special interactive artwork created with @TransientLabs between 2023-2024, and it has received a bid of 1.5 eth
this auction will be live on @SuperRare for 24 hours. thank you so much to @vibezgm for kicking things off!! i'm incredibly grateful 🩷
all of my work is meant to be used for self-reflection and catharsis, and chromophone invites you even deeper into this process. relax and embrace a spirit of play as you explore and express. let go of any pressure or expectations and simply see how the colours and sounds connect with how you feel in your body
instructions for playing chromophone are in the nft description. desktop is recommended

Each week, the Design Channel highlights one of the most influential designers Onchain on @base , @Farcaster and beyond!
This week we enjoy the company of Erica (@heavygweit).
Erica is the cofounder of @unofficialrun , a discovery engine for onchain content. Unofficial’s flagship product is Uno, a people-first Farcaster client.
With a background in UX and web design, she recently transitioned into full-stack development while building Uno over the past year.
Outside of work, Erica enjoys making pottery, practicing yoga, going to the gym, cuddling her cat Pear, line dancing with her queer community, raving, hosting dinner parties, and browsing the internet for supplies for her next soon-to-be-abandoned hobby. In the coming months, she’ll be focused on handcrafting furniture and decorating her new apartment.

Last week, we had the pleasure of joining the Canadian Blockchain Consortium at their annual Policy Summit.
During the event, winners of the Stand with Crypto Canada Pitch Competitions were awarded on stage alongside @lucmatheson, CEO of Coinbase Canada, and MP Greg McLean, both of whom emphasized the vital role of innovation in Canada’s economy.
Congratulations once again to our pitch competition winners!
