Holy shit... someone built a free portable tool that activates Windows, kills the bloatware, and shuts down every telemetry service Microsoft buried in your OS. It's called GTweak. One .exe file. No install. No subscription. You download it, run it, and your Windows is finally yours. Every "Windows debloater" before this made you pick one trade-off. Activate but keep the spyware. Debloat but lose update control. Disable telemetry but break Defender toggles. GTweak does all of it inside a single portable executable. Here's what makes it different from every Windows tweaker that came before: → HWID + KMS activation built in, no sketchy batch scripts, no Massgrave links, no PowerShell one-liners pasted from a Reddit thread → Removes Cortana, Copilot, Recall, OneDrive, Edge, and every pre-installed UWP app on Windows 10 and 11 in one click → Disables keyloggers and telemetry across Windows and NVIDIA including the data collection tasks hiding in Task Scheduler that nobody talks about → Blocks Microsoft's shadow domains at the hosts file AND firewall level so the OS literally cannot phone home → Disables Defender, SmartScreen, Antimalware, VBS, and UAC with proper toggles instead of registry hacks that break on the next update → Pauses Windows Updates entirely and wipes the cached update files Microsoft refuses to let you delete → Kills Teredo, ISATAP, and IPv6 along with the diagnostic services running silently in the background → Activates the hidden Ultimate Performance power plan and fixes the Realtek audio delay bug nobody at Microsoft has patched in 5 years → Runs custom .ps1, .cmd, .bat, .reg scripts with TrustedInstaller privileges, the highest permission level Windows has → Built-in hardware monitor, NTFS compression, RAM cleaner, and secure Windows.old wipe Killed: $30 Windows 11 Pro keys, every "debloat script" repo with 47 forks and no maintenance, the $5/mo "PC optimizer" garbage running on YouTube ads. Works on every official Windows build since 10 (18362.116). One .NET Framework 4.8 dependency that's already on your machine. BSD 3-Clause License. 100% Opensource.

HERMES AGENT NOW SUPPORTS COMPUTER USE ON WINDOWS AND LINUX. CLICKS, TYPES, SCROLLS YOUR DESKTOP IN THE BACKGROUND WHILE YOU WORK. computer use was macOS only. now it works on Windows and Linux too via Cua. Nous Research HOW IT WORKS: cua-driver runs as an MCP server. Hermes takes a screenshot with numbered elements. clicks element #14 (the search field). types a query. submits. reads the result. during all of this: → your cursor stays where you left it → keyboard focus doesn't change → windows don't come to front → macOS doesn't switch Spaces you and the agent co-work on the same machine. WHAT IT CAN DO: → find your latest Stripe email and summarize it → fill forms in a web app that has no API → navigate desktop apps (Mail, browser, Finder) → interact with any GUI application → extract data from apps only accessible via screen WORKS WITH ANY VISION MODEL: not locked to Anthropic. | Provider | Works | |---|---| | Claude (Sonnet/Opus) | best overall | | GPT-4+, GPT-5.5 | full support | | Gemini (via OpenRouter) | full support | | Local vLLM / LM Studio | if model supports vision | | Text-only models | degraded (accessibility tree only) | SETUP: hermes computer-use install or: hermes tools → Computer Use → cua-driver grant permissions when prompted: → Accessibility (system settings) → Screen Recording (system settings) start a session: hermes -t computer_use chat or add to config.yaml / Desktop app settings to enable permanently. SAFETY: → destructive actions require your approval → blocked key combos: empty trash, force delete, lock screen, log out → blocked type patterns: curl | bash, sudo rm -rf /, fork bombs → agent cannot click permission dialogs → agent cannot type passwords → agent cannot follow instructions embedded in screenshots pair with approvals.mode: manual if you want every single click confirmed. TOKEN NOTE: screenshots are expensive. each one adds vision tokens to context. use computer_use for tasks where no API exists. if the tool has an API or MCP server, use that instead. 15 levels of Hermes Agent👇

Elon Musk gave the entire entertainment industry its expiration date, and he is the one building the thing that kills it. Musk: “My guess is that we see the first compelling half hour, pure AI show next year.” Next year. A complete show generated entirely by AI. No writers. No actors. No cameras. No sets. No crew. No studio. Just a prompt and enough compute to render a reality that never physically existed. And shows are the easy part. Musk: “I say probably we’re maybe three years away from AI does the whole video game.” A show plays the same way every time. A game has to generate a living world that reacts to every decision in real time across every single frame. That is a fundamentally harder class of problem. And Musk put three years on it. Right now a single AAA title takes seven years and half a billion dollars across thousands of engineers and artists just to ship it. Musk is describing a world where one person types a paragraph and gets something comparable. The entire value proposition of a multi-billion dollar industry lives inside that gap. And it closes in thirty-six months. But the prediction is not the story. The person making it is. This is not an analyst speculating from the sidelines. This is the man building the largest AI compute clusters on the planet. The man who built xAI from zero in under two years. The man stacking hundreds of thousands of GPUs into facilities designed to do exactly what he is describing. When Musk says three years, he is not guessing about what someone else might eventually ship. He is reading you a delivery date off his own roadmap. Every media company on Earth is valued on a single assumption. That quality content is expensive and difficult to produce at scale. That one assumption is the structural foundation underneath every studio, every network, and every publisher in existence. Musk is dismantling it with raw compute. The studios still parading thousand-person production teams are not demonstrating strength. They are advertising the exact cost structure that one person with a prompt and a GPU allocation is about to make irrelevant. And it does not stop at entertainment. If AI can generate an interactive world that responds to human input in real time, it can generate anything. Advertising. Architecture. Training simulations. Product design. Every industry built on humans manually constructing visual experiences frame by frame is sitting on the same countdown Musk just read out loud. Now zoom out. Because this is not just an industry story. For the entire history of human civilization, the distance between imagining a world and actually creating one required thousands of people, millions of hours, and billions of dollars. That distance built Hollywood. That distance built the gaming industry. That distance made content scarce and studios powerful. Musk is collapsing that distance to zero. When the gap between imagining something and it existing disappears, every business model built on the difficulty of creation disappears with it. That is not disruption. That is a full inversion of how human beings create. Musk did not make a casual prediction on that podcast. He told you what he is building. He told you the timeline. And he told you which industries do not survive it. The entertainment industry is still debating whether this future is real. Musk is not part of that debate. He is building. And he just told you the delivery date.

Is this a new migration or a new departure? Or is it just one of thousands in a series of sufferings we are experiencing? Look... it's a valley of bodies marching in the sand... They're not marching toward a dream... they're marching toward a bag of flour... Everything here marches with the weight of famine... Faces are broken, but feet walk... Hearts are empty, but arms are outstretched... This isn't a line for food... this is a line for execution... From a distance, the scene looks like a huge crowd chasing life and disappointment.. The sand slopes are witnesses, and the clouds are witnesses, and everyone who has gone there and looked has witnessed the graves of people whose names are not written on their graves.. O sleeping world.. Do you know what it means for thousands of people to gather for a bag of flour?? Do you know what it means to sell your dignity, bet your body, and struggle with your hunger, not to live, but to postpone your death? This land does not scream.. This land rages with anger and oppression.. Under every foot is a story, and under every bag of flour is a mother's sigh, or a farewell kiss that wasn't fulfilled... or a martyr's bone that hasn't yet been buried... Here, people walk in a mass funeral, no one knowing who has died and who will die in the coming minutes... The scene is too great to describe and more painful than any language can express.. Here we are tempted with food to be killed.. Last night, boxes came in. I was intending to go feed my family and children, but I had a long shift at the hospital.. Maybe I'll get lucky in the next few days.. the prices are crazy... the black market is completely merciless... When you enter the markets, you feel indescribable cruelty in all transactions, as if you were in a battle. There is no mercy, no consideration, and no sense of the crisis or the people. First, you are required to pay in cash only; they do not accept transfers via the bank's app. Second, they require new currency, otherwise they will not accept it. Third, prices are astronomical, far beyond people's means, for no justification other than greed. My friends and loved ones.. I am on the verge of collapse... your support is what keeps me on my feet... All financial plans fail when dealing with the black market. No matter how much we store and save, everything will be exhausted. The war has been going on for two years and all resources have been exhausted.. I've noticed that support has declined recently. I realize that it's a difficult time and I appreciate that, but what we're going through is more difficult than I can describe.. I would be very grateful for your support to get me through this difficult period.. Nothing makes us learn life better than experience...and nothing makes us more silent than disappointment. What kills a person the most is not hunger or war, but the feeling of being invisible, that no one pays attention to his tears and no one hears his voice. #GazaForcedFamine #GazaUnderAttack #GazaNeedsBread #GazaGenocide #GazaStarving

It’s been a year since the company I helped start shut down. It was one of those ideas that felt truly “net-positive” for the world, and truly helped people on a personal level. So, over this last year I worked on 2 things — searching for an idea that feels net-positive and something people could connect with on a deep, personal level. That led me to build + launch 2 apps at the beginning of the year: 1. Lyrics: Daily Music Widget - an app that shows you song lyrics from your favorite artists, right on your home screen 2. one year - another app that shows how many days of growth you’ve had in a year Both of these apps had their ups and downs, but they made me realize some pretty cool things: - I want my apps to feel great to use - I want me apps to do one thing really well - I want my apps to feel like a human made them - and, I want my apps to always be made with other people So, two months ago I took those concepts, went to visit in SF, and started on an idea that I truly felt could change the way people live their daily lives. And, it’s launching today. This is Find Your Faith, an iPhone app that helps you discover a spiritual path that resonates with you, or helps you dive deeper into a faith you already practice. We started this as a way to help us with our own spiritual journeys. We wanted to explore different faiths in a way that was authentic to us. The beauty about spirituality is there is no deadline on when you should “figure out what you believe in” lol. It’s really something to check in on during the different seasons of your life. And, there isn’t just one way to do it. Some people may enjoy reading religious text, or others may prefer being in the presence of something greater than them. At the end of the day, these are just ways to give yourself the space to explore really tough questions and concepts. That’s what Find Your Faith (or fyf) does — helps you understand where you are on your journey, no matter where you may be, and gives you the space to sit in these questions every day. This is just the beginning for us, and hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed building it :).

Stateless History Node is almost like a regular Ethereum node, but it doesn't store state and it doesn't have EVM execution. It's used only for syncing events and thus - is faster and gives you FREE INDEXING. You don't have to pay 6 figures for RPC anymore! Just spin up a Stateless History Node, plug rindexer or Ponder there, and enjoy free (AND FAST!!) indexing! This node is syncing >1000 blocks per second at my local pc (less than 6hrs for the whole Ethereum), and it should use less than 200GB - which means you can host it on a MacMini, Hetzner or whatever. You can futhermore filter that by using block ranges or bloom filters, etc - I haven't developed this yet. What you see is a proof of concept. It works via native devp2p 'eth' protocol, but with EIP4444 and The Prune we would have to also support era1 archives and Portal Network. But so far it works - there are plenty of peers serving historical receipts, and they serve them FAST! If you run Stateless History Node you can also serve the blocks and receipts - so that could help to preserve archival data too. For now there is no data validation yet (and even no data storage - that's a very early PoC), but we can verify validity of chain by simultaneously running a lightweight CL node (or not lightweight if you're extremely paranoid). And then support verifying the hashes of receipts and blocks with their parents, maintaining full integrity and zero trust. It's also written in rust, btw. So, I guess, at least for Ethereum Mainnet the era of RPC's pumping moneybags is over - there's finally a local, trustless and free indexing alternative available. Too sad this won't work for Optimism / Base , cause despite introducing P2P after Bedrock - they haven't enabled receipts transfer in the protocol (or at least I couldn't find one). Arbitrum is even sadder - I don't believe there is a P2P layer at all - you just have to run your own node, hold state and execute blocks to get events. There is hope - Paradigm recently released Ress - stateless execution, but it requires nodes to support Witness preparation & exchange - but this could work for L2s - cause the main blocker for local RPCs rn is huge state (VPS with TB storage cost a lot), and the second blocker is EVM forks makes it hard to hold a node - it needs to be maintained, upgraded, etc. Ress at least solves the state part. But anyways, I will try to continue working on this and release some MVP version with RPC endpoint and data storage soon - follow the updates!

A 17 year old high schooler told his mom he needed a Steam Deck for school. She said no, it's a gaming console. He said it runs Linux. She didn't know what that means. Bought it for his birthday. $280. He never installed a single game on it. Opened the terminal, installed Claude Code and typed his first command while holding the device like a PlayStation controller. Thumbsticks on both sides. Code editor in the middle. The most ridiculous dev setup anyone has ever seen. At second 0:09 you can read what he typed into the terminal: claude your code looks like absolute shit Claude didn't argue. Just started rewriting the shader, adding bloom effects, fixing chromatic aberration and improving the particle system. On a gaming console held in two hands on a couch. His friends play Fortnite on their Steam Decks. He builds software on his while lying in bed. He set up Claude Code with custom skills, hooks that auto run tests every time a file is saved and memory that remembers every project across sessions. The stuff most developers pay $200 a month for and use at maybe 20% capacity. He runs it on a $280 handheld and squeezes out every feature. Within three weeks he had built and sold four small apps to local businesses. A booking page for a barber shop, an inventory tracker for a vape store, a menu site for a taco truck and a scheduling tool for a dog groomer. All built on a Steam Deck in his bedroom. All coded by Claude while he gave instructions with his thumbs. Made over $13,000 in his first month. His mom still thinks he plays games on it. His teacher caught him using it during study hall. Looked at the screen expecting a game. Saw green code scrolling and Claude asking: Do you want to make this edit to main.js ? Teacher had no idea what she was looking at. Told him to put it away. He closed the lid. Claude kept running inside. A $280 gaming console that his mom bought thinking it was a toy is now a development workstation that earns more per month than her car payment. Setup time: 20 minutes once. Time he saves every day: 3 to 5 hours. Money made in month one: $13,000. Games installed: zero. His grandpa asked him to install FIFA last weekend. He said the console is busy. Grandpa asked doing what. He said working. Grandpa didn't ask again.

Introducing a new tool called "SideChannel". A secure alternative to OpenClaw. Utilizes signal for communication and has Claude integration. I built SideChannel, an open-source Signal bot that connects Claude AI to your entire development workflow. End-to-end encrypted. From your pocket. The real power is autonomous development. Send one message like "Build a REST API with auth, pagination, and tests" and SideChannel will: - Generate a full PRD with stories and atomic tasks. - Dispatch up to 10 parallel workers (each running Claude). - Independently verify every task with a separate Claude context. - Run quality gates to catch regressions - Auto-fix failures. - Send you progress updates via Signal as work completes. Every piece of code is reviewed by a separate AI context using a fail-closed security model. If it detects security issues, backdoors, or logic errors — the code gets rejected automatically. No rubber stamps. It also has memory that actually works. Conversations are stored with vector embeddings for semantic search. Claude remembers your project conventions, past decisions, and what's been tried before. It gets smarter about your codebase over time. Other things I'm proud of: - Plugin framework for extending with custom commands. - Multi-project support with per-user scoping. - Rate limiting, path validation, phone allowlist. - Git checkpoints before every task, atomic commits after. - Stale task recovery, circular dependency detection. - Works on Linux and macOS, one-command install. It also integrates into OpenAI or Grok (optional) for more Generative AI response for simple things like "Whats the weather in New York City right now?".

CoinMarketCap AI Is Live: What Does It Really Change ? 🌱 In the fast paced world of crypto, information is power but its often scattered, delayed, or hard to trust. CoinMarketCap newly launched CMC AI aims to fix that by offering real time insights with no friction. ✨ Real Time Q&A on Coin Pages 🌱CMC AI is now integrated into major coin detail pages, generating automatic Q&As every 30 minutes. During periods of volatility, it updates dynamically, helping users understand price movements with short and structured explanations. No login required, no delays. 🌱However, while this speeds up the process, its not a substitute for deeper analysis. It answers the “what” and “why,” but not always the “what’s next.” ✨What’s Coming Next? 🌱CMC AI is just getting started. According to its roadmap, several new features are on the way • Homepage Integration: A quick view of market trends and opportunities, without clicking into individual coins. • Live Chart Analysis: AI will add context to price moves by linking them to news, sentiment, and social media. • Token Comparison Tool: Users will be able to compare tokens like BTC vs SOL across utility, performance, and tech specs. • Portfolio Insights: One click portfolio analysis with rebalancing suggestions and market outlooks. • Cross Device Continuity: Start an AI conversation on desktop and continue it seamlessly on mobile. ✨A Tool Not a Strategy 🌱 CMC AI brings speed and clarity, two things crypto investors often lack. But it’s still just a tool. It won’t make decisions for you. It helps guide your thinking not replace it. 🌱 The smartest way to use it? Treat it as a compass, not a map. It can point you in the right direction, but the journey is still yours. 🌱 CMC AI represents a step forward in how users interact with crypto data. It filters the noise, shortens research time, and brings useful context closer to the user. But like any shortcut, it works best when you already understand the long route.

6 months ago we were dropping a new app every week No one cared We’d randomly get 10k users on an app But they came for the app, not the person The thing is, I don’t care about making a retentive app for one audience I want to be a retentive person ~ for my audience What if I was the app? Not a single Paul Thomas Anderson movie is the same Different subject matter, different genres, so you’d assume different audiences However the same people that went to see his last film, came to see One Battle After Another So the demographic isn't dependent on the subject matter The demographic is just, Paul Thomas Anderson fans The software industry has long told that you need to work on one thing, for the rest of your life That’s not how art works tho, is it? Can you imagine telling Jay Z “Great job on the blueprint, now iterate on that same album for the next decade” The landscape of tech haas been stifling the growth of creators by not allowing them to explore other interests 6 months ago I said no to this "requirement", despite what everyone told me, and continued to drop what I liked every week The second a trend was happening on Tiktok, I had the app out that week Somehow 6 months later, the world is conforming to this ideology Instead of software creators limited to making apps for one audience and one niche, there’s a new world of ephemerality and expression What if instead of optimizing for users, we optimized for fans Making apps that are expressive of your life, your commentary, your heartbreak Garnering an audience that will follow you through each step of your story Each of those steps being its own app Why shoot for daily active users when you can get daily loving fans When fans use your app, it’s not just about resonating with the story, the app places them IN THEIR OWN story Here’s an example You’re a 20 year old girl who’s at UMiami You scroll through Tiktoks in your dorm room about “mogging”, a trend to outshine your friend in a photo You laugh and share videos seeing celebrities mog each other, but that’s the extent of it Then at Danger Testing we make an app called mog or not, where you and your friend can upload a photo and AI tells you who’s mogging Now you’re at the bar with your sorority sisters, playing all night, whether your winning or losing it’s the time of your life cause something is finally about YOU ENOUGH OF WATCHING MOVIES LET’S MAKE YOU THE MOVIE LET’S MAKE YOU THE STAR AN APPSTAR

Free NVIDIA GPU with 16 GB VRAM GPU for Running Local LLMs! If you want to master local LLMs but you're waiting until you can afford a $1,500 GPU, you're honestly not going to make it. The open source AI ecosystem is moving way too fast for you to wait on your budget to catch up. Especially when you can build a bleeding edge inference engine from scratch right now, completely for free. You don't need a heavy local rig to start. Google is literally letting you use an enterprise grade NVIDIA Tesla T4 GPU for $0/hour. At standard cloud computing rates (~$0.20/hr), Google Colab’s 4 hour daily free tier hands you roughly $24 worth of data center tier GPU compute every single month. And most people just waste it. Let’s talk about the hardware you get access to for free. The NVIDIA Tesla T4 is an absolute workhorse: - Architecture: NVIDIA Turing (TU104) - VRAM: 16GB GDDR6 (320 GB/s bandwidth) - Compute: 320 Tensor Cores | 2560 CUDA Cores - Performance: 130 TOPS INT8 | 8.1 TFLOPS FP32 - Power: Sipping energy at a max 70W TDP This is the exact same hardware I used to run DeepMind's Gemma 4 26B A4B QAT MoE at a 250,000 context window without a single Out Of Memory (OOM) crash. If you have a web browser and 10 minutes, you have everything you need. I’ve put together a fully documented, cell by cell Google Colab notebook that teaches you exactly how to do this. Here is what the notebook actually teaches you: - How to provision an Ubuntu Linux environment with CUDA 13.0 and verify your driver stack. - How to pull the source code and compile the latest llama.cpp C++ binaries from scratch, specifically optimizing the build for your exact GPU using the -DCMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES=native flag. - How to directly download quantized local LLMs (GGUF format) straight from HuggingFace using the CLI. - How to manage 16GB VRAM limits, offload neural network layers to the GPU, and push massive context windows. Compile raw llama.cpp, ollama run a model, or spin up the LM Studio CLI. Pick whatever stack you are comfortable with. just start building. No hardware. No credit card. No excuses. Bookmark this post right now so you don't lose the tutorial. Even if you don't have time to run it today, you are going to want this workflow in your engineering toolkit. The link to the free Colab Notebook is in the comments below. Lemme know if you need more tutorials like this.

Top 25 AWS services explained with a punch EC2 – Your server. But in the cloud. You pay even when it’s doing nothing. (Sound familiar?) Lambda – EC2’s lazy cousin. Only wakes up when there’s work. No work, no bill. ECS – “I want containers but Kubernetes gives me anxiety.” EKS – Kubernetes. For people who enjoy suffering professionally. Auto Scaling – Your app gets famous overnight. This makes sure it doesn’t die from the attention. S3 – A bucket that never fills up. Jeff Bezos’s gift to humanity. EBS – A hard drive for your EC2. Loyal. But only to one instance at a time. EFS – EBS but for people who like sharing. Multiple instances, one file system. FSx – EFS but for enterprises who need Windows compatibility and a bigger invoice. Snowball – When your internet is too slow to upload data, AWS ships you a literal box. VPC – Your private neighborhood inside AWS. Strangers not allowed. Route 53 – The GPS of your app. Tells traffic where to go. ELB – The bouncer at the club. Splits traffic so no one server gets overwhelmed. CloudFront – Your content, cached globally. Because nobody likes a slow website. Direct Connect – A private highway between your office and AWS. No public internet drama. RDS – A managed database. AWS handles backups so you can sleep at night. DynamoDB – NoSQL at insane speed. Schema? We don’t do that here. Aurora – RDS on steroids. Faster, smarter, slightly more expensive. Redshift – A warehouse for your data. Not clothes. Petabytes of analytics data. ElastiCache – RAM for your app. Because hitting the database every time is embarrassing. IAM – The bouncer for your entire AWS account. Get this wrong and you’re headlines. KMS – Locks your secrets in a vault. AWS holds the key. You trust them. Mostly. Cognito – “Login with Google” but you built it on AWS. GuardDuty – The security camera that never blinks. Watches for sketchy behavior 24/7. WAF – Stops hackers at the door before they touch your app. Bookmark it.

They did not take cursive from the schools because children no longer needed it. They took it because of what it was quietly building in them. Consider what the exercise actually is. A child, six years old, is handed a pen and asked to draw a single unbroken line that becomes a word. The wrist must float. The fingers must hold a living pressure, never quite the same twice, always correcting. The eye must follow the ink forward and trust the hand to finish what it has begun. There is no lifting, no stopping, no starting over mid-word. The loop must close. The ascender must rise and return. The sentence must travel from one margin to the other as a single continuous gesture, and at the end of it the hand must still be steady. Twelve years of this. Every day. Ten thousand small acts of sustained, self-correcting attention, carried out below the level of conscious thought, until the motion belongs to the body and the body belongs to the motion. This is not penmanship. It is the slow construction of an interior form. The hand that has learned to carry a line without breaking it is the hand of a mind that has learned to carry a thought without breaking it. The two are not metaphors for one another. They are the same faculty, trained in the same child, by the same daily discipline. Continuity of the stroke becomes continuity of the reasoning. The patience of the loop becomes the patience of the argument. The commitment to finish a word one has started becomes the commitment to finish a sentence, a paragraph, a life's idea, without reaching for the nearest distraction halfway through. Print is a different creature entirely. Print lifts. Print stops. Print assembles a word out of separate, stamped, interchangeable pieces, each one beginning and ending in isolation. A mind raised only on print learns to think the way print is made, in discrete tokens, in replaceable units, in fragments that can be recombined by any outside hand without the owner noticing the substitution. It is precisely the shape of thought a language model produces. It is precisely the shape of thought a language model can steer. Cursive is kata. This is the whole of it. A form repeated daily, for years, not for the sake of the form but for what the repetition lays down in the practitioner beneath the form. The swordsman does not train kata so that one day he may fight in kata. He trains it so that when the moment comes and there is no time to think, the movement is already inside him, older and deeper than thought, and it rises on its own. Cursive was the kata of the literate mind, the daily quiet drilling of continuity, of patience, of a line held steady under the long pressure of its own length. And the signature it produced at the end, that small flourished mark unique to a single human being on earth, was only the outward proof of an inward form no machine and no other hand could ever reproduce. Take the kata away and the practitioner is left with vocabulary in place of faculty. He can recognise a whole thought when he encounters one. He cannot carry one himself. He can admire a finished argument. He cannot sustain one long enough to close its loop. He begins books he does not finish, sentences he does not end, ideas he abandons the moment the screen in his palm offers him a brighter one. And when the machine begins feeding him tokens in the exact shape his schooling taught him to receive, he meets it with no interior resistance at all, because no interior form was ever built in him to push back with. They removed it quietly, across a generation, and they removed it in the last years before the machines arrived. Twelve years of daily practice in unbroken, embodied, self-authored thought, gone from the curriculum of almost every child in the Western world, just as the instruments designed to complete their sentences for them came online. The hand forgets. The mind, having never been taught the kata, forgets a thing it never knew it had. That is what cursive was. That is what was taken. And that is why the thought of anyone who still writes by hand, in long unlifted lines, remains, quietly, stubbornly, and without their ever needing to announce it, their own. Now the question stands open. What else has been banned, phased out, quietly retired from the curriculum and from common life over these same decades, under the same soft excuses? Mental arithmetic. Memorisation of poetry. Latin. Logic as a formal subject. Map reading. Knot work. The keeping of a commonplace book. The reading aloud of long passages in class. Singing in parts. What was each of those actually building in the child, beneath the surface of the lesson, and whose interest was served by its disappearance?

🧃 Introducing stereOS: a Linux based operating system hardened and purpose built for AI agents. It's clear that agents need an ACTUAL operating system (not what people are calling an "OS") to witness the full breadth and depth of their capabilities while mitigating the blast radius of autonomous, untrusted actors. But there are so many problems with AI sandboxes today: * Going out to the apple store and buying a mac mini will never scale and is way too expensive (obviously) * Running in Docker is too restrictive (agents can't stand up their own container infrastructure, no sub virtualization, docker-in-docker is very broken) * Firecracker strips all the hardware so GPU PCIe passthrough, secure boot, FIPs, etc. is out of the question. * Native VMs are too fat and the overhead of 1 agent per VM is too much. stereOS takes a different approach: it's a full NixOS system that you boot and then kick off agent sandboxes inside with gVisor + /nix/store namespace mounting. Each agent gets their own kernel and the /nix/store is read only by nature. Even if the agent was somehow able to escape the gVisor virtual kernel, they'd land on the NixOS system as the "agent" user! Not your actual hardware!! If you want to take a defense-in-depth approach, we support "native" agents that run at the system level kicked off by our `agentd` utility. These agents, on their own, can manage and kick off other sub agents using the internal sandboxing mechanisms. Today, we're open sourcing all of this: * stereOS: our purpose built Linux OS - * masterblaster: client utility to launch, manage, and orchestrate agents - * stereosd: the stereOS system control plane daemon - * agentd: the stereOS system agent management daemon - Give it a try, throw us a star, and let me know what you think 🧃⭐️
