It's really underrated how 4 years ago the worst ethereum UX problem was that transactions would often take like 10 min to confirm if you get unlucky with the gasprice, and that problem just completely went away with EIP-1559. Today transactions reliably confirm in 5-20 seconds. https://x.com/post_polar_/status/1803406902430236907

The differences between the APIs of numpy, cupy and torch are so fascinating.... ``` >>> import torch as np >>> np.arange(10) tensor([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]) >>> a = np.zeros(20) >>> a[19:-1:-2] = np.arange(10) ``` Torch doesn't let you have ranges that go backwards 🤣 Would love more consistency

Why is this "ethereum conference locations suck" discourse I've seen a few times on the other app completely ignoring that devcon is going to be in thailand? Also EDCON in Tokyo end of Jul.

The Tiergarten in Berlin has become one of my favorite parks and running tracks. Even though the longest (good) loop is only 4.3km, repeating it six times somehow doesn't feel overly repetitive. And today I learned that it has a long and fascinating history, and most of the trees there today are under 80 years old.
