I&#39;m not the only one that picked up on it, as you point out, and the tapestry gets richer over time. There is also a reference in Philip K Dick&#39;s Exegesis which I stick in my profile. In my teens I was tapping out machine code directly into a static RAM by bringing the Z-80 bus into high-impedance mode, then toggle back and reset to run. I made a front panel of set/reset latches using 7400s and paper clips to tap in code. It wasn&#39;t even my idea. I read about it in Byte Magazine back in the day. The data bus was hooked up directly to the hand held piece of perf board in the picture. There are 7400s behind the electrical tape. I&#39;d use the red wire to set the bytes. Origin!! That is interesting about your personal relation to Oberon. Many of the languages you mentioned were in Byte Magazine articles that I skipped over to see what Steve Ciarcia was working on that month.

The concepts of peak complexity, the different reasons and nature of knowledge, and the inclusion of wisdom in culture affect how we use computers. The current reality, IMO, is we are way past any form of peak complexity that is sustainable, we use knowledge in a narrow way (optimize the global supply chain), and we have ejected wisdom teachings from culture that form restraint. Computers aren&#39;t the enemy that is disempowering us. We are doing it to ourselves as a culture, and computers pour gasoline on the fire. 2026-01-26T18:12:19Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsq5dzr8xgafu3f5y85krpqrvehxwlp4qlse2f66x4ena9wlh9yvmczyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t2z7hnlr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstr0fdp0v4zqcsxwk4g3ce0q6cqheaqm6zgm4t34ptgq26teyd4ucpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wvh8xmmrd9skc7kk737'>nevent1q…k737</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/a1817b79070a9fa9c066d40f5334aa11f95df9e620e3d23f88ad4848aa8bff49.png"> 2026-01-26T17:59:21Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqszsph9wwm332nug5rfwxngu8jl207lhvm4u6smztnxxtm8nqzp2kczyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t2a8gukt I forget where I saw this, I suspect it was on a talk with #ZakStein: wisdom teachings share the concept of restraint.

One key point is I have *zero* ideas on how to solve peak complexity from this side. This is where I vary from the Bitcoin folks who feel it is the solution from this side. I solve nothing from here. My work is primarily for refactoring and visualizing after collapse events. So, pretty much aligned with much of your response. I just don&#39;t see Bitcoin as a solution either.<br/><br/>I could well be wrong, and the foundations that you and other Bitcoiners are laying down I *could* see as critical, if we collapse in ways that preserve chip fab and network connectivity. Both things might also be true. It might take collapse before Bitcoin sees broad adoption (defining broad adoption as most people I see and most stores I see in my neighborhood.) There is room for both perspectives. Few are building simple cognitive tools like mine. Everything I build will run completely offline. Further, it is all very small. An entire Logical Map, multi-level data and material flow and documentation is less than 1MB, and is included in a single artifact (a PNG file). We don&#39;t particularly appreciate that now, but not needing to pull from ecosystems around the globe (and mostly owned by a centralized apex cloud entity) will be important as this crumbles.<br/><br/>Resilience is a disposition that emerges after crises. Cognitive tools, decentralized payment ledger methods, decentralized communication (Nostr, Bitchat), permaculture, focus on local communities/culture... all of that I can see as needed as part of our kit. I&#39;m not arrogant about my stuff being needed at that point, but it is possible, so I&#39;m putting it in the time capsule. 2026-01-23T19:19:50Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqvsn3csw3vnpwltncxnta5rd4tacql8qjq6cqau2shjq6tw3f3lszyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t2f5078p In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqlg769e0qy25glrv7rk8uyls7cvkleuf4av4e2348ttqnhqv8nkqpz4mhxue69uhkg6t5w3hjuur4vghhyetvv9usn9td9p'>nevent1q…td9p</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I have quite a bit invested in Oberon at this point, so identity shifts should settle here.

I&#39;ve gone back and forth on that, but it seems useful to have consistent identity for those trying to verify.<br/><br/>2) I generally follow those that follow me. Culturally, I&#39;m off a few notches from many on Nostr. My politics and understanding of where I fit in the world and what I&#39;m doing here are significantly different, and this causes cycles that neither of us need. I&#39;m OK with learning new things, but in the large majority of cases, I&#39;ve realized that it is futile to engage with zealots. I have learned some things here, more than I have on other platforms. By changing my npub, I can give others a chance to engage only if they are in a state of mind to be two-way. Put another way, if you can still deal with my shit after my flurries, there is another chance to engage once you realize I&#39;m pretty much running to my own drum and won&#39;t ever do Bitcoin (or any other crypto currency). Besides not doing Bitcoin, I&#39;m also relatively conservative as far as geopolitics and freedom. I see our struggles as civilization grappling with being way past peak complexity. I don&#39;t see it as a struggle for freedom against encroaching oppression coming from everywhere. There *is* oppression coming from everywhere, but it is a symptom of peak complexity and other constraints of 8 billion people in an increasingly extractive relationship with nature. 2026-01-23T14:47:30Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsfu9d3sx3plv9w2xltmycq6vepugdrw7tjmd2amgsq0kzrlrgs88gzyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t28vkv84 API compatibility for #JavaScript runtimes:<br/><br/><a href="https://runtime-compat.unjs.io/">https://runtime-compat.unjs.io/</a> 2026-01-23T01:09:27Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsdgamzwkgaqqmewkvqg47v2w4mh878rqr05ac3apv3l6sf645nwygzyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t25up7hz #devstr Decent #CSS guide (wish I had this years ago...

For anybody that realizes their colony is absolutely insane, or is going absolutely insane because of the colony, this is the mirror that Herzog is holding up. And, really, the &#34;allegory of Herzog&#39;s penguin&#34; is also spot on for humans, as we are very social, so leaving the colony often amounts to suicide. But, again, that isn&#39;t the point.

Pattern matching against man pages and stack exchange is a good application for current pop AI. This is *similar* to building within software ecosystems, but earlier forms of AI that used knowledge maps and direct inference are more appropriate, as the links are hard, not scraped/matched. As an example, this is a knowledge graph I made of a GNU/Linux build dependencies I did a few years ago. Hard knowledge like this can be fed into LLMs via RAG to solve this. Software ecosystems are a particularly good application, as some inference should be *hard knowledge* not scraped/matched. For that, you will need experts, not a scraped model.

We have to process extreme amounts of movement data that is centralized vs. collaborative maps. Google maps is best because it can process the real-time flow of exhaust data coming from their products (and maps users driving in cars). This distinction is dear to me. But, the funny thing is we are now backfilling LLMs with knowledge graphs via RAG to mitigate hallucinations. I suppose for critical systems we might continue that. But here is the catch: current AI *requires movement*. The correlation between map products with ontologies is relevant. By *only* relying on centralized platforms that build models, as systems change/fail/emerge, only those centralized models that constantly build from fresh data will succeed, and current AI takes much energy, minerals, connectivity, money, centralization, etc., to make that happen. We *could* have focused on distributed knowledge via collaborative maps, but the systems became too complicated and changed too quickly. Curse Tim Berners-Lee for caving on that, even though it is the pragmatic choice (he literally said something along the lines of &#34;ok to toss rdfs/triples/owl style because we get similar results from LLM style AI&#34;. But praise Tim Berners-Lee for his early vision and later semantic web, tip o the hat to you sir.&#34;)<br/><br/><br/>[1] <a href="https://youtu.be/x3ugXHOyLLw">https://youtu.be/x3ugXHOyLLw</a> 2026-01-13T13:57:23Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsynlply5seqc4dt75pe2x4t9h2jncmychp3xmh9m862c9xf5mwvyqzyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t22kttg0 I published my Logical Map paper on Zenodo:<br/><br/><a href="https://zenodo.org/records/18231930">https://zenodo.org/records/18231930</a> 2026-01-13T12:47:01Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsvkekgfz987fp906pdm62ju50ksvrgxyl6lwepkpu5xdysahawcggzyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t26pfka8 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstah4fz7ufwcdakuacahx3elt875qjy78v2m2p8eqnq24v3uh44uqpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgjv9hc5'>nevent1q…9hc5</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>A background vid for the document. <br/><a href="https://youtu.be/Ywd5jMhxqrI">https://youtu.be/Ywd5jMhxqrI</a> 2026-01-12T20:41:48Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqstah4fz7ufwcdakuacahx3elt875qjy78v2m2p8eqnq24v3uh44uqzyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t2vqf9cf I finished the paper.

It is something I learned here on Nostr, along with <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqtxwaehxw309anxjmr5v4ezumn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tmwwp6kyvtjw3k8zcmp8pervct409shwdtwx45rxmp4xseryerdx3ehy7f4v3axvet9xsmrjdnxw9jnsuekw9nh2ertwvmkg6n5veen7cnjdaskgcmpwd6r6arjw4jsqgq6lcx8fc7h0p8t4ya9u0a92jnwavqe9rgjwwdw3wjgxfuxsz8rd5mths8c" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>HODL</span> (<span class="italic">nprofile…hs8c</span>)</a></span> &#39;s memetic circus tricks. A good hack is to just get a new npub and start over with the few people that had any genuine engagement related to priority work. This is especially important if you don&#39;t care about Bitcoin or the other cultural attributes that dominate Nostr. <br/><br/>It is easy for me to try too hard. I hope I&#39;ve learned to back off of this thing called reputation. It is related to identity, and that alone is a huge nasty trap we fall into (and it is monetized). Mostly, what I post as an individual means zero. What I create, how I interact and care IRL matters. Sure, that sounds pat and trite, but I also believe that gets at the WoT issue as well. Create something useful, and people will find you regardless of the WoT of the day/platform.<br/><br/>If I get some free time, I&#39;m thinking that a hybrid between ham radio licenses and CB radio (with channel 9) would be an interesting project. (my x.509/MQTT tunnel/Tower w/ Nostr event objects routing idea). I&#39;m not so sure it addresses WoT any better... haven&#39;t investigated that far... I have something to finish, first. I have this intuition there is something there, though.<br/><br/>Anyhoo... Jack&#39;s money has been put to great use here, IMO. 2026-01-10T17:12:09Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsgq8hkj4m8tfumrcundle8zt69mgvjnljfsx4n685wd7n6mwctp7qzyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t25l9yu4 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw6wffwzhccq0mhkzx5enxerylqqxnjd4cmlsvdv56vle584s236qpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5szjyrm'>nevent1q…jyrm</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Ever watch this? <br/><br/><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6135920/">https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6135920/</a> 2026-01-10T05:09:34Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqnqvmkfqudzv50qc4f3x88jajac0pldt3suwk0m0pgarf63afgvszyr4frm3wluy5yy2m252mhklwzfvme7yelrw8nveatpfy6yzw840t2c346pz I need to finish up my Logical Map Whitepaper; however, I have an idea for Nostr that I can&#39;t tamp down. Nostr devs have figured out a great MVP for sending notes over relays (NIP-01), as well as dealt with many other issues via the other NIPs. My own use of Nostr for a crisis scenario, though, requires more control and efficiency. I think it would be useful to control both sides of the connection before application data flows. This will reduce spam and CPU/network use. It requires an issue by the server to specific clients. Now, part of the administrative nightmare can be mitigated by combining it with Nostr identity. Consider an MQTT broker a &#34;tower&#34;, and an MQTT publisher client a &#34;set&#34; (as in CB/Shortwave set). A tower could issue certs for npubs. These npubs all have the same cert. The cert is just used to secure communication. The server has two ways to verify, then, the cert and the fact that the event objects were signed by the nsec.<br/><br/>Another NIP (NIP-TWR?) would define how this works on the client app (the web app running in the browser that connects to relays over Nostr). I&#39;m thinking the set could be a local service that takes event objects over websockets and routes them through to the tower. The tower works on pub/sub with varying QoS values (deliver once, broadcast only, deliver more than once, etc... pure MQTT). There would be 40 topics on each tower that match. Towers share messages based on follower lists. Alice might have a set/tower tunnel to Tower A. Bob might have a set/tower tunnel to Tower B. If Alice posts &#34;need help getting water&#34;, she could post it on channel 9 (matching CB emergency). Bob follows Alice. Bob will see a replicated message from Tower B on channel 9.<br/><br/>What I&#39;ve done is broken up tiers of identity so that we get a middle tier rather than completely distributed. NIP-TWR could ensure compatibility easily, as the client app can do both (and read Kind 0 references for towers, etc).<br/><br/>MQTT has an advantage in that it already exists, offers pub/sub, has websocket options, is ubiquitous, and often uses self-signed TLS client certs. Much of the meta verification and communication could be handled over regular Nostr, but the key appeal of spammers (notifications and views) could be completely blocked out, yet still retain compatibility. No wacky WoT is needed, just a cert issued by a tower operator (and there is nothing stopping somebody from bringing up their own tower and updating their kind-0 entries). We know MQTT scales because of IoT. 2026-01-09T19:10:39Z
