ShaneBrain Ecosystem

Shane Brazelton

Dispatcher. Father. Coach. Builder. Author.

Sponsor Constitution Book Hugging Face

Sober since November 27, 2023


I dispatch dump trucks by day and build local AI infrastructure by night — running a full AI stack on a Raspberry Pi 5 in a closet in Hazel Green, Alabama. Five sons. A wife who holds it all together. A faith that won't quit.

Everything I build serves one mission: putting real AI tools in the hands of the ~800 million people Big Tech is about to leave behind.

I build because I have to. And because I couldn't stop if I tried.


The Book

You Probably Think This Book Is About You

A collection of noir vignettes about ego, identity, and the universal human condition.

Written in third person. Dark but light. Cynical but comical.

It was always about you. It was never only about you.

The Ecosystem

Ecosystem Evolution

ShaneBrain          →  Local AI on Pi 5. Private. Yours.
  └── Angel Cloud   →  Public platform. Families. Mental wellness.
        └── Pulsar Sentinel   →  Enterprise. Post-quantum crypto.
              └── TheirNameBrain   →  Legacy AI. Personalized. Generational.
                    └── ~800M users losing Windows 10 support in 2025

Every repo I build exists somewhere on this map.

The Constitution

Every repo in this organization operates under one governing document.

Read the ShaneTheBrain Constitution

Nine pillars. One covenant. No exceptions.


Support This Work

If what I'm building matters to you — local AI for real people, books written on a Pi in a closet, tools for the left-behind — there are ways to help:

  • Sponsor me on GitHub — even $1/month keeps the RAID spinning
  • Buy the book — a noir detective story built on a Raspberry Pi
  • Star the repos — visibility matters for projects like this
  • Share the constitution — the mission is bigger than the code
