Signal Log — DeepBlue Dynamics

James Otis Arguing the Writs of Assistance in the Old Towne House, mural by Robert Reid, 1901.

Two posts ago I said I was building my own link-sharing site.

I was a toddler when glass teletypes were taking over computer rooms.

A blind, end-to-end-encrypted marketplace for AI inference.

Lume is a Rust hybrid search engine that Steve Harris and I have been building in the open at github.com/DeepBlueDynamics/lume.

When you think of the Elgato Stream Deck +, you probably think of OBS shortcuts, audio mixing, or smart-home toggles.

AI slop was a symptom Last time I argued that slop is an effort problem — that AI didn't make software bad, it made low effort cheap — and that the cure is annealing: run the loop hot until the synthetic luck burns off and what's left is craft.

The internet is currently drowning in synthetic noise, and the tech world has found its favorite new dirty word: slop.

The first electronic navigational charts that a casual sailor could afford showed up in the late 1990s.

The terminal was designed for one operator.

Every week, another frontier AI model arrives wrapped in world-historical language.

This is the first transmission from the Signal Log — DeepBlue Dynamics' channel for engineering notes, release dispatches, and the occasional field report.

An RTL-SDR v4 dongle (~$48 on Amazon) is, among other things, a high-rate hardware random number generator.
