From c9a175ba4a66891fe6d3d40af04ec3e7857193b1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vuong Hoang Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 00:56:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] memory: U5 adoption is a prediction with a re-measure date Operator declined the fleetwide announcement (2026-09-22) and chose to let the convention propagate through the README alone, specifically so adoption can be distinguished from design. Baseline 0 of 26 booths at landing; re-count 2026-09-29. Near-zero means nobody heard about it, which is a different failure from nobody wanting it. --- persistent-memory.md | 11 +++++++++++ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+) diff --git a/persistent-memory.md b/persistent-memory.md index 5811a93..06bb379 100644 --- a/persistent-memory.md +++ b/persistent-memory.md @@ -59,6 +59,17 @@ _As of 2026-09-22:_ ## Recent decisions +- `[2026-09-22]` **U5's adoption is a stated, falsifiable prediction — RE-MEASURE + 2026-09-29.** Operator declined the fleetwide announcement and chose to let the + convention sit, explicitly so that adoption can be told apart from design: + **count how many booths under `~/booth-data` carry a `.booth.json` a week + after landing.** A near-zero count means the convention was never heard of + (an adoption failure — fix by announcing), NOT that the shape was wrong.
