Ah, looks like the (NIP-99) Gamma Markets spec for orders uses Kind 16, but that’s also a repost kind I think. Will investigate further.

Totally possible, but the next challenge will be how to build other agents that can peer review the PRs. UX Tester / Architect Review / etc. to tidy up the creation so it’s pretty much ready for merging. Also, deploying to an emulator that’s just a click away for reviewers might make reviewing easier too?

Very cool. Does AI help with PCB board design yet? I had a go a few months ago for the FOSSA ATM project but the learning curve was more than I had time for at the time.

Nice little project where he started using Claude Code using some sample code from another repo to connect to an ECUMaster black ECU.

The video is a mock data being fed to the app.

Can’t wait to plug it into the car and see what Claude can make of the CAN bus messages.

This was actually an aside to creating a CAD design for the screen surround.

Sounds like he might be doing a custom branded screen for the Bitcoin Racing guys (are they on here)?

Here's yours @nprofile1q... clearly exponential - although sipping pina coladas on the beach in Dec?! :-)

Assessment: Exponential Path?

Verdict: Definitively exponential - already at scale.

dergigi's contribution pattern shows a developer who has fully embraced exponential output. The 6.6x increase from Q1 to Q4 2025 is striking, but what's more remarkable is the absolute volume - nearly 10,000 contributions in a single year.

The trajectory follows a classic exponential curve: steady foundation in Q1, acceleration in Q2, then explosive growth from July onwards where monthly contributions frequently exceeded 1,000. August 2025 alone (1,626 contributions) nearly tripled the entire Q1 output.

The sustained high output through Q4 (maintaining 1,200-1,400+ contributions per month) suggests this isn't a temporary spike but a new baseline. This is what "post-AI development velocity" looks like at full throttle - a developer already operating at the far end of the exponential curve
