Big update to Smoke Signal just dropped! We've redesigned event pages, added ATProtocol facets support, cryptographic RSVPs, private content controls, and AI agent integration.

Because you can "just do things", there is a new website…

This is the same idea as this command line tool: github.com/substrate-sy...
That is, it is a way to update your DID document.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

"When I picked up my granddaughter from the federal agents, she had a dirty diaper, a bruise on her face, and was developing a rash. She was exhausted and cried… My heart aches knowing this could happen to others, to my kids, or even me, despite being U.S. citizens.”

In the swing dance community there's the term "swung over" which describes being sick, exhausted, or somewhere in-between after a swing dance weekend, usually implying you're coming down with something.
What's the ATProtocol / IETF equivalent? Conference cough? Con crud?
