𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗰 𝗔𝗜 𝗛𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗻 🤖🧑💻 We are hosting a virtual hackathon where the challenge is to build innovative AI-powered software using PowerSync as a sync engine.
Great to have Dev on the team. I've already learned so much from him since he joined, and I'm looking forward to him sharing many rich learning experiences with the @powersync.com community.
Very excited to announce that I have joined @powersync.com as a Developer Relations Engineer! Sync Engines are the future of app development on every platform, not just the web, and provide a necessary abstraction for AI applications and agentic engineers.
What if you could get all the benefits and capabilities of modern sync engines without giving up your existing tech stack? Learn more about how PowerSync makes building modern and agentic applications simple in our latest blog post “Unleashing the Power of Sync”
🧵 Could Bitchat have 5x the range and 100x the throughput for the same power expenditure? I explored how Wi-Fi Aware could improve the reliability and throughput of Bitchat and mobile ad-hoc networks in the absence of internet connectivity. #bitchat 👇
It was agonizing to choose from among the 34 excellent submissions, but here are the four talks selected from our CFP process!
We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...

Sigh. The "AI friends" thing on other networks is incredibly depressing. I cannot believe we're going there. I mean I can. It's where the money leads. But I can't.
We used to go online to escape. Now we must go offline to escape. What happens when ubiquitous mobile broadband (delivered via satellite) and BCIs converge? Going offline will become harder and harder, so we'll need more software tools to help manage our brains health.
NEW 🧵 Is human intelligence starting to decline? Recent results from major international tests show that the average person’s capacity to process information, use reasoning and solve novel problems has been falling since around the mid 2010s What should we make of this? www.ft.com/content/a801...
