Bluesky’s private beta launched in late 2022, and demand was immediate. Invitations became the hottest digital commodity as early adopters flocked to test the platform. 🌀
Its focus on fostering healthy, authentic conversations resonated. #BetaDays

In 2022, Bluesky spun off as an independent company to accelerate its mission.
Its foundation? The AT Protocol (Authenticated Transfer Protocol) which underpins everything we love about Bluesky: User autonomy, Decentralization, Innovation in moderation and algorithmic choice #ATProtocol #BlueskyTech

In 2019, Bluesky originated at Twitter as a project to explore decentralized social networks.
The goal? Build a protocol that could host a network like Twitter—but with openness, interoperability, and user control at its core.
A big vision for a small team. 🚀

During COVID-19, our team at Open Source Ventilator worked to create low-cost, 3D-printed ventilators to address global shortages.
We united over 3,000 engineers, designers, and medics across 70+ countries to make it happen. Here's how: www.qeios.com/read/VF6WTE

"What if collaboration could save lives? Let's talk about the power of open-source technology during crises. 🛠️🌍

From ventilators to diagnostics, open-source solutions can scale fast and adapt to local needs. #OpenSource #InnovationForGood

This is great. Thanks for sharing.

Inspired by Afrofuturism, Hiberno-Celtic Futurism connects Irish heritage with global ideas to co-create inclusive futures. It’s a call for collaboration across disciplines, cultures, and communities.
How can Ireland lead in inclusive innovation?

#GlobalInnovation #Futurism

Ancient Irish practices like Brehon Laws show values of harmony and restoration. Hiberno-Celtic Futurism bridges these lessons with modern eco-social justice, offering tools for resilience in today’s complex world.
What can we learn from our ancestors?

Hiberno-Celtic Futurism merges STEAM (science, tech, engineering, arts, and math) with Celtic culture. From coding inspired by ancient patterns to music rooted in wave theory, it fosters creative, sustainable solutions.
Which STEAM area could benefit most?

#STEAM #Innovation

Celtic traditions value liminal spaces—times like Samhain or places like ancient monuments. Hiberno-Celtic Futurism uses these transitions as inspiration to reimagine resilience and sustainability in our volatile world.

How can liminal thinking spark innovation?
#Liminality #CelticFuturism

Hiberno-Celtic Futurism fuses Celtic heritage with speculative fiction and innovation. It offers a sustainable, inclusive framework inspired by mythology and traditions to reimagine solutions for modern challenges.
How can ancient culture guide our future?

23/ One day we may have the technologies needed to duplicate the arm of the Winter Soldier. My hope is that this technology will be made available to amputees or those born with limb deformities rather than cryo-preserved assassins who are more than 100 years old.

22/ In conclusion, it is possible to create a functional arm demonstrating some of the functionality of the Winter Soldier’s arm, but the high levels of perfor-mance shown in its durability, strength, and reaction speed are currently far beyond our current technologies.

21/ The final piece is power, how to power something like this. Power requirement would be high in this case, so excluding some form of a miniature nuclear reactor or a #Stark Arc Reactor, the most likely cannon suitable power source is a #Tesseract derived source.....

20/ On control systems, a real-world example for Open Bionics is used to show the excellent control systems that are currently used to control advanced prosthetics along with new electromyography systems which are also suitable...
