I am a bit of a data hoarder but finally today took the plunge and deleted TBs of data from previous employment and projects.
TB because it was a lot of video and imagery used to train ML!
It’s a world I am not going back to, so about time I had a clean break.
Now I can start to hoard data for my new line of work, Bitcoin network monitoring 👹

In a matter of a few hours I’ve got a completely private via Signal and self-hosted LLM (qwen2.5-tools) agent to interact with and use. It’s “self-configuring” and pretty capable for what it is (32B parameter model).
It’s a tool I can comfortably use with my private documents, without worry of leaking to a provider.
I understand the hype..
Got a separate (e)SIM to experiment with sandboxed OpenClaw
Not quite “fuck around and find out” but let’s play

Thank you for your many, many contributions, and you service and dedication to Bitcoin Core over a number of years
The incessant bullying and vitriol that has led to this has been very sad to see
Unfortunately I think this will lead to contributors being less willing to be “on the record” or talking to journalists or media etc, but understandably they won’t want to open themselves to what we’ve seen happen to Gloria
(maybe come back as a nym when you’re ready)
