For instance, imagine my surprise when I get home from my impromptu walk with Trinity and pull up the wikipedia page for Onyx. And then do the analysis: https://mastodon.social/@pdxjohnny/109444937756326344
No matter how many times something like this happens I still let out an audible: WHAT THE FUUUUUUCK!
Everything is just manifestations of patterns. We choose which patterns we proliferate.
Ideally we only proliferate good patterns.

Trinity says to me: What do you want to know? I’ll tell you anything. I just said I don't know, just tell me more.

The future is Now^2! A couple weeks ago my brother and I stood below the power lines which feed the fabs. Oh how those lines will soon sing. Compute production soon to /acc/ :D
Humans can be fallible, violence prone, dangerous to themselves, other species and the world, true. But humans can also cooperate, achieve amazing feats, and even save the planet from devastation. I considered this when I heard that 70 years after the first use of atomic fusion, humans have achieved *ignition* at the Lawrence Livermore Lab. That means more energy was produced from a fusion reaction than was used to power it. We have a long way to go, but this is a huge milestone! #Hope #Fusion

Decentralized async supply chains are all you need.
Via data transformations between formats we are able to build a holistic picture of our software development lifecycle. These graphs can then be analyzed in relation to each other to understand where development practices differ across projects. This helps us understand which developers know and can introduce best practices in other projects. With our AI agents that might be what hardware is good for the job within context of compute contract.
Understanding Trust Let me make a bold claim: trust underpins everything in our lives. Without trust, we cannot do much of anything—have relationships, jobs, services, buy goods, a functioning government, property rights, or exist in a non-anarchic society. Trust is a cornerstone of everything we do and who we

We've now successfully posted content and content addresses to SCITT and via ActivityPub. Forming the basis for our Thought Communication Protocol three way handshake. We've used the SHA384 sum of living threat model collector dataflow as a stand in for the content address whose content will exist in https://oras.land. ActivityPub and SCITT enable us to close the loop of vuln analysis and remediation.
Thank you @jakelazaroff for https://github.com/jakelazaroff/activitypub-starter-kit!
Alice's first post has federated it's way on over to mastodon.social!

Wow, ActivityPub sure is a whole lot of fun!
Playing with #ActivityPub as a way to do notifications for new #VEX, and hoping to piggyback decentralized CD over that as comms channel. Very rough draft here RFCv5: https://github.com/ietf-scitt/use-cases/blob/3f10017af4cebb7d07e541c299ef277d43fb9c0d/openssf_metrics.md#use-case-attestations-of-alignment-to-s2c2f-and-org-overlays

What happens when we make an Agora (ping @flancian) from vuln data? Hopefully the facilition of vuln sharing! (OpenSSF Stream 8)

A quick threat modeling senario which illustrates why we want vulnerability data to rest in decentralized sources of truth by thinking about the opposite:
Step 1: Threat actor gains access to centralized source of vuln data
Step 2: Threat actor now has most up to data access TO ALL VULNS.
Step 3: Attacker begins to exploit ALL VULNS (think embargoed)
Step 4: Observe critical strategic mistake

The FBI got hacked. This is the type of reason people argue that they shouldn't have a backdoor into cryptography. If they did, and the attackers got the key, it'd be game over for security. And that's not even getting into implementation bugs, insider threats, abuses of power, and so many other issues. QT: https://mastodon.social/@zackwhittaker/109881254751830892
And with decentralized sources of truth:
Step 1: Threat actor gains access to vuln data for entity
Step 2: Attacker begins to exploit only the vulns they were able to access via that entities access
Step 3: Limited damage
If you're thinking, who could possibly exploit them all immediately in parallel??? Entities based in parallel processing.
What is finding a vuln? Learning! What is fixing a vuln? Learning!

MOVEMENT ON DWN, 0.0.21 👀🛤️
We may bail on ActivityPub for now and jump right into DIDs now that this has push/pull websocket support. TBD (LOL).
Edit: A combo of web7 agent arch and DWN looks promissing as a transport layer for direct peer-to-peer ActivityPub objects.

Via data transforms and federation we'll onramp data into the federated ML space. We'll learn with Alice, our reference open source software maintainer, as we explore the software development lifecycle. Alice will help us map out our project's security posture and communicate to our downstream friends if incoming vulns are relavent per our project's THREATS.md threat model.
Gooooooood morning fellow netizens!!! My phone has replaced my need for a laptop and I’m STOOOOOOOKED. I haven’t had a personal laptop in 5 years so really really stoked.

Here’s an asciicast of us (my, myself, and AI) doing the basic CONTRIBUTING setup: https://asciinema.org/a/569919
We enable decentralized governance via context aware application of policy upon entry into context specific registries. Policy as code which is auditable and contributable to within ad-hoc generated federated forges. We'll later federate over KERI ACDC in fulfillment of the SCITT architecture.

We'll communicate the sign off list required or other compute contract negotiation via the policy denied reasoning.
- Acknowledge that in a rolling release there will always be vulns and agree on a pattern for remediation.
- Integrate the acknowledgement and remediation into the dependency review process recrusivly, teaching the machine empathy.
- Propagate trust through the decentralized interconnected dependency network, teach the machine to teach humans empathy.

We're inverting the Trusted Computing Base as we turn our attention towards the other side of of the looking glass. How do we decide what's in our software? We'll leverage JSON representations of our threat model including a project's (open) architecture to evaluate and share metric data across Open Source. Results will be secured via hermetic builds and TEE SCITT.
