I am almost old enough to remember using a Jacquard loom. (Actually, a Fortran paper punch card computer.) I loved it no less than I do Claude today. A lifelong love affair.

It finally arrived!
Will dig into @tjayrush essays tonight.
I love seeing the thoughts of people I like and admire put to print.
The user owns the data or the whole thing was pointless.

"Seeing somebody using your project in the wild, that never gets old. That always motivates you. Hearing people as you're walking by saying "you should just use Infura for that" ...that stuff's really addictive."

Earlier this year I was getting frustrated with Claude's charts, fed this book to claude and had it generate a Tufte skill. Instantly got simpler/more beautiful visualizations.

if you run an ai lab, pls ensure your team has read this before putting any charts out into the world

Recently published a piece on Logos Basecamp — the launcher and unified surface of the Logos stack.
The only way to escape the censorship and monitoring of the modern world is to build local-first systems that protect privacy by default.
Here are a few things I wanted to draw out for anyone building on, or thinking about building on, Logos:
1/ Basecamp doesn't do the work — it surfaces it. Wallet logic lives in the blockchain module, messaging in comms, file-sharing in storage. Basecamp is what makes a collection of modules feel like one coherent experience to the user.
2/ It's module-agnostic by design. Whatever modules you have installed, Basecamp discovers them and loads their UIs. The stack composition is defined by the modules you choose — not by the launcher. That's what makes specialised Logos distributions possible.
3/ There are three ways into the stack for users: Basecamp (the default launcher), a standalone app (single binary, bundled UI), or a headless node (CLI only, for validators and infra). Same stack underneath; different surfaces on top.
4/ For developers: QML is the path of least resistance. Scaffold a module with the lm CLI, ship it, and Basecamp auto-loads its UI on next launch. The Package Manager handles discovery. You compose against the rest of the stack rather than rebuilding it.
5/ Basecamp is in active development on Testnet v0.1.2. Testnet v0.2 is when it starts becoming the first-class user experience for operating on the frontier.
