Confession: It’s been a while since my last post on Nostr I’ve been busy. Lots going on IRL, some good, some bad - but it’s kept me tied up. My ai assistant is helpful - but the time spent working on it absorbed the time gained by using it. I feel more organized- The signal : i finally got a few moments to look at social media and I go to Nostr not some crumby platform. 😁 Hope you all have the best day ever.

OpenClaw update 2026.4.12 is quite a level up. I don’t want to spew about ai on Nostr but I did want to point out that I was able to get a lot further toward a fully autonomous bot. Updates to the memory system, dreaming and significantly better models, have reduced the troubleshooting. The bot is working away on its own - things are getting better. It’s building a couple of ambitious web projects and helping me juggle my schedule More impressively it’s learning and self improving - and it’s becoming genuinely useful.

Was just thinking back on this moment. This a good friend, Nick Sherman playing a song of his on a borrowed guitar, down on Whiskey Dock, waiting for a ride. We had one hell of a visit, he played a bunch of gigs including an impromptu concert in my gallery with Myles Morrison backing him up. We went to a punk show, stayed out till the sun came up. It's a moment I really appreciate for how cool it was. Sometimes the simplest things are the best.

Yeh I did ok with Kaspa. One of the odd issues was that Canadians were excluded from many international exchanges after the govt seized a bunch of assets without a court order.
