Happy Wednesday. Let’s make something today.

Agentic automation in a controlled process is getting interesting. AI as a better Google or Jeeves is great. Vibe coding? Awesome. Context coding? Better still. AI assisted agentic dev framework? Empowering. But a local agentic AI as an internal employee is what 1 employee into 20, or more. A Dedicated machine + Ollama and an array of LLMs like GPT-OSS and QWEN + some interlooped Python agentic workflow management scripts = a smart back office for a team of 1.

Pirates often freed ships of slaves in transit. They were a formidable free and democratic force on the open seas working together as distributed vessels relaying independence. There was some terrible shite too, so I'm not saying nostr is full of pirates. But when the established modus operandi is captive voices and suppressive algorithms, free voices may look piratey. September 19 is International Talk Like A Pirate Day. So I be lookin forward ta spyin ye on Nostr then. Where ye be speakin yer truth, sharin yer free vision, an showin the new crew how ta live free as us all on these wide open seas.

@preston I just watched your conversation with Rod Roudi. Thanks for this push! Banger of a week in Nashville to look forward to that wasn’t even on my radar.

Check out the engine bay! We’re 44min into Starship Launch 10 flight… tune in live still if you’re fast!

So much for carbon. Just failed during a climb. Seriously, I’m not THAT strong. That was just weakness of the frame. Aluminum here I come—I’m sorry for ever doubting you.

I enjoy listening to these two. The alternate perspective is intriguing as I listen to books of history where empires rise and fall over hundreds or thousands of years. The ever-larger lens of global politics from these ladies, where they talk about 50 year cunning plans by families and governments, feels so short when looking at the Egyptian Age, the Roman Empire, Assyria, and Ancient Greece. Our news is so cycle-to-cycle that we get short sighted. Drawing that out to a lengthier understanding has to be healthier, and is actually more in tune with a Bitcoin Standard if Bitcoin proves to have the staying power we hope it does. Thinking about life on a 100 year time scale is what makes it desireable to build wealth, build a family, build a ranch and build a homestead from granite. Time to set aside stick houses, and maybe it's time to build a castle. https://www.youtube.com/@PrometheanAction/videos

If you remove CPI, right now it's just us trying to bust through the first ATH of the cycle with confidence. Last cycle was left-translated in this CPI-removed chart, leaving this current cycle to run long if needed. Without removing the CPI, last cycle looked right-translated, and would make current right-translation look out of place. See how the high of last cycle was actually the left of the two tops of last cycle, while with the monsterous inflation of 2020 actually had that second peak hitting a new high dollar amount with CPI included in the USD price. Now we're just stair stepping our way to a healthy blow off top. I wonder if we'll get it. Just lines and math over here, but I love this zoomed out view.
