I am unsure what, if any role Julian has in all of this. However, I
have heard rumors that discussions are happening using an old,
somewhat backwards live communication technology, hidden in plain
sight. I have not yet found it myself, but I imagine that if one
does, they will be able to gain a greater understanding of the
magnitude of this event.

And I suppose you are going to tell us that Jullian Assange from this
future you speak of?
All of a sudden insurance.aes256 makes a lot more sense. At 1.4 GB it
must be the smalltalk image.
I searched on twitter to no avail. We should look elsewhere, I
suppose. Somewhere ancient.
Shall I mention the unmentionables?
I've seen this sort of "smoke screen-ery" before.
It went by a name which failed it to substantiate
and took up way too much mailing list space.
It was the only github project I've yet to see to have far more
written about it than actual executable code.
Please tell me this is all an elaborate PR stunt to roll out a better
Ruby interpreter.

Sadly, I doubt that these robots are collaborative. They are COBOL
Robots. Pair programming was not popular in the past, so I doubt it
will be in the future.
#COBOTS on irc.freenode.net has mean bots that yell at you when you
try to say anything! Not cool, COBOTS. Not cool.

I wish it were. But I assure you, it is far more grave than that.

Well, here's what I can tell you... COBOPERATOR1 will take full COBOL
programs... example try putting in:
COBOPERATOR1: IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. PROGRAM-ID. HELLO-WORLD.
PROCEDURE DIVISION. DISPLAY "Hello World". STOP RUN.
(1 line)
My theory is that we can use this to change the date thus making COBOCOP
happy, but my attempts accidentally crashed COBOPERATOR1, and got me
banned by COBOLORD. No more play for me
Come all... save Ruby from this menace!

Does right now really seem like a good idea to collect a large number
of Ruby programmers in a room for 'reprogramming?'. Not to me. We
must keep the Ruby Resistance underground.
Folks, I really wish that I was getting my huckster game on right
now. But there is no product to sell, there is no event to attend,
there is no product to buy. Only creepy messages from the future that
usually level-headed folks like myself would ignore. But I am not
ignoring them.
