I do freedom tech stuff. I rant about lightning. I build AI and bitcoin stuff. I want to combine all of these (minus the ranting) into something that pushes the quest for freedom one step forward.
I build lots of MVP's and do R&D for various companies. I also consult companies on Bitcoin, AI, nostr security and infrastructure.
I'm working on several [projects](https://disobey.dev/projects/), most notably [enclava.ai](https://enclava.ai) and [nostr.net](https://nostr.net). I'm also building lots of open source tools [things](https://github.com/aljazceru?ref=disobey.dev) and run a few [directories](https://disobey.dev/projects/#directories) about things I'm interested in.
Previously I've built (and since shutdown) a company [building tools to solve lightning node management](https://blog.bolt.observer/), started a [Bitcoin meetup that turned into more than just acommunity](https://disobey.dev/posts/the-history-of-bitcoin-ljubljana/) and was part of the experiment called SEC-01, short for [Sovereign Engineering Cohort](https://sovereignengineering.io/) where a bunch of us freedom tech pirates experimented with nostr and other technologies over the course of two months.
