I sincerely apologize for the recent disruption and confusion surrounding my account.
My X account was compromised. Through that unauthorized access, the attacker also obtained credentials that allowed them to reach my GitHub.
Everything that happened was outside my control. I take full responsibility for securing my accounts going forward.
Since September 1, I have received a large number of unsolicited login / password-reset emails targeting my X account.
I am sorry for the inconvenience and uncertainty this caused.
I am now securing all related accounts and will share further updates if needed.
Thank you for your patience.
Yes, we talked a lot.
especially about the passing of Ask Solem Hoel (@asksol), who was a friend of mine from building at Robinhood.
He was incredibly cool.
He built Celery, Faust, and Thorn.

GM everyone,
Back to building. Back to making history.
All of you are only shackled by your own thoughts, imagining problems that don’t actually exist.
@saevarom is the real deal. He’s a family man, so please respect his time. He’s an international engineer and a core team member of Wagtail, so he won’t waste time on your FUD. He’s focused solely on building and making progress.
In the end, it’s your choice. Whether you believe it or not is your own loss.

WagtailOnchain is live as an idea.
Wagtail CMS is not a weekend repo.
Django. 12 years. ~21k commits.
20k+ GitHub stars.
Third-party Zauth score: 95/100.
It survived because the software had to.
NASA JPL. Google. NHS. Mozilla. MIT. Oxfam.
Production sites. Real traffic. No room for sloppy tooling.
WagtailOnchain ($WAGTAIL) is a community experiment on Robinhood Chain.
Named after a standard that already won in production, not after a borrowed costume.
What we ship first:
• token on Robinhood Chain
• a repo that says the affiliation out loud
• small on-chain tools, built in public
Then we're gonna take @saevarom as a wagtail core team project to support this movement.
If you respect software that lasts, stay.
If you wanted a fake official stamp, keep walking.
Site and contract next.
Unaffiliated. On-chain. Built in public.

Remembering that event from 10 days ago
(instagram.com/p/OZY6TDiOHk/?…),
seeing you stand so powerfully as you explained all your skills and everything that was in your mind… @asksol..
I remember that after the event, the two of us initiated the Faust and Thorn projects at Robinhood. Not long after, you finally passed away.
May you rest in peace. You were such a warm and brilliant person.
@RobinhoodCrypto & @vladtenev should give him a bit more respect, or ar least ro his son, Robin.
Proud to be on the @WagtailCMS core team. The CMS keeps getting better thanks to the amazing community.
Returning to more regular activity on X.
Expect posts about coding, open source projects, and occasional updates from Iceland.
