Is Fission the first Elder Brand? RIP, we shut the company down this April 2024, on our Bluesky 1st year anniversary.

Since a bunch of folks have asked about what's happening to UCAN wrt the Fission wind down. It's all open source and IP released. At minimum I'm planning to continue with UCAN code & specs for the foreseeable future — in fact the 1.0 spec is around the corner 🚀

We just posted a farewell to our blog about winding down operations of the company fission.codes/blog/f...

The Causal Islands LA Community Edition is happening this Saturday, March 23rd If you're in the area, come join for an awesome full day of the future of computing fission.codes/blog/causal-... @bmann.ca, @expede.wtf, and @depatchedmode.bsky.social will be there!

Shared in the Fission Discord: never thought about decentralised compute in this way, really amazing. Maybe its the example that's very attractive if not the theory. from www.youtube.com/watc... #decentralized #compute #hyperclouds
