I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 7 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
My recent deep dives into researching and building my own personal agentic-AI system, which began just about a month ago at this point, has swallowed me whole and taken me down seemingly innumerable and deeply engaging and involved AI-tech rabbit holes, and while my brain is still fried, and I'm also still getting far too little sleep, the progress that I've been making in that time is quite amazing. Last week was the first one in years where I didn't do my usual Hive asset management every day, fitting it in only a few times during the week. Part of that is also due to some of my HP leases getting a bit messed up, so I've had notably less SWAP.HIVE each day to use.
As I've said, the AI-tech space is developing and evolving mind-blowingly quickly, and even though I'm doing my best to keep up with it, and even with the tools and frameworks that I presently use, it's honestly a huge challenge, and quite overwhelming, especially with the limited time that I have to devote to it. I've been fitting it in the best that I can in focused work sessions, but it's taking up a notable amount of time, especially time usually devoted to Hive.
I love Hive, and I'm still 100% committed, dedicated, and all-in, but with my current agentic-AI development, and the state of Hive and its economy, I've begun to truncate my Hive time a bit, focusing on just the most essential, to be able to have enough time to give to building my agentic-AI system. I'm still not getting enough sleep, however.
As I come to understand more clearly what's important and essential across each of the 8 layers of this AgentOS that I'm building, I'm beginning to look more closely into, and to explore and experiment with, more capable and robust ways of doing things in each layer. Right now I'm rather focused on the memory layer, which is a core necessary component. While my present setup does work pretty well, I'm looking to both improve, and to expand the dimensions of its utility.
I've been using Mnemosyne since last week, and it's an excellent memory backend, but because of the very strong potential benefits to doing so (which I'll have to test, of course), I'm looking to integrate Hindsight as well, to create a potentially better, functional hybrid Mnemosyne+Hindsight setup that takes advantage of the benefits of both memory systems. I basically know how to do this now, which means that it's just about time to implement it and test things out. We shall see.
Yesterday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my numerous Sunday Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, quite late, by about 3:45PM, giving my attention to a few small jungle-community tasks, and to some photography for my posts. After making myself some food in Wabisabi, and collecting my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, I headed back to the Flow House early, to finish with the asset management for the We Are Alive Tribe, to work with Hermes a bit more, and to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got through all of my notifications by a little after 9PM, and after more AI-tech research, and working one last round with Hermes, I went to bed, way too late once again, by just after 12:30AM. I woke up around 7AM, still feeling that I needed more sleep, doing more agentic-AI research, going to prepare my superfood fire coffee in Wabisabi, returning to the Flow House to prepare this post and my goals-and-progress-update post to write, doing a bit more agentic-AI research, and then finally beginning to write this post. My goals-and-progress update will be late this week again, sadly. It's now just before 2PM, so it's a very good time indeed to wrap this up, so that I may attend to my few other impotant Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on photography for my posts, and then on jungle-community/land work and tasks. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until my goals-and-progress update later tonight or tomorrow morning (hopefully), and the next edition of these posts tomorrow afternoon! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
2026 Life Goals
1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.
2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.
4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Vote for our @aliveandmmb Witness Node!
This is our collaboratively shared Witness node between the We Are Alive Tribe, and @borniet's and my MMB (Maximum Mutual Benefit) Project, here to build something good for all of us! The higher in the witness ranking we go, the more that we'll be able to grow the We Are Alive Tribe, and the more that we'll be able to share with all of you!
If you appreciate what we're doing with the We Are Alive Tribe, and feel inspired and motivated to lend a hand in building and growing our decentralized community economy and financial framework, which benefits all of us, community conntributions/donations/investments may be sent to our 'We Are Alive Tribe Sovereign Wealth Investment Fund' account, @waat-swif. They're deeply appreciated, and are put to very good use.
Vote for @borniet's @botlord Witness Node!
Bjorn is our badass coder who hosts and manages our (and also Bradley's) community backends, he creates all sorts of useful tools, and he assists people all over the Blockchain constantly. He redefines the term 'busy'!
Vote for @bradleyarrow's 
Witness Node!
Bradley's tenaciously committed and all-in on Hive for the long haul (just like me!), and the higher his witness goes in the ranking, the higher the weekly BBH and BBHO dividend payouts will be!
