- A living “trans-tech.yaml” roadmap was migrated from the SKDB repository to the DIYH+ wiki; it now lists open-source projects and near-term experiments (e.g., tissue-culture lab requirements) and is maintained under version control.  
- Participants debated the design of a satellite-based “Outernet” that broadcasts curated web content to Earth; criticism centered on vote-driven curation, limited geographic coverage (Europe & N. America only), and the mismatch between “broadcast” and “network” claims.  
- kanzure floated the idea of a cryptographic system that can be executed entirely inside a human brain, prompting discussion of mental math limitations and the need for a purpose-built “math ontology index.”  
- Eye-based microscopy experiments were reported: users can resolve microscopic structures on the corneal surface by exploiting eyelash diffraction and entoptic phenomena, with links to MIT’s “bokode” lensless imaging work.  
- A new Bitcoin Central architecture was highlighted that removes private keys from public-facing servers; discussion noted that merely isolating keys on a second server still leaves a two-step attack surface.  
- LibGen launched an explicit donation drive, flagged by superkuh as critical for keeping the open-access paper repository alive.  
- paperbot delivered paywalled papers on demand (e.g., Neuron article via DOI 10.1016/j.neuron.2014.01.022), illustrating the channel’s routine use of shadow libraries for research access.  
- Debugging and testing questions arose around Flask/WSGI applications with asynchronous HTTP callbacks, seeking patterns for integration tests that wait for external pings before proceeding.
