A bit of a hidden gem math explainer about how tensors are useful for calculating derivatives! https://youtu.be/DqYA3nlWPKg

A great Trojan horse for some algebraic geometry in a strange premise https://youtu.be/iLkOBkWUDkM

Solid playlist for getting a grasp on tensors. I've had some trouble moving from linear algebra into tensors (mostly because I slacked in comprehending change of basis). Now have a solid idea what makes a vector and a covector different, why we do matrix multiplication (and other LA operations) the way we do, and how to interact with multilinear maps. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJHszsWbB6hrkmmq57lX8BV-o-YIOFsiG

More bit twiddling on old consoles! It really amazed me how much effort must have gone into just figuring out how to display the picture you wanted before interacting with GPUs was largely standardized https://youtu.be/G0E4u6TuSFo

I learned recently that @michaelmicasso is one of my favorite pixel artists that I used to follow on reddit from a couple years ago. Thought that the Art styles were unusually similar, and I finally realized after going through some old saved reddit posts that it's because they're the same!

Watch a guy make a game for the SNES. This kind of bit twiddling really gives me the urge to make an old school 2d style game, but zk provable with onchain rewards https://youtu.be/kYLJLJkVfLk

If the us has a "strategic" eth reserve doesn't that give them a pretty big (read: outsized) influence on fork choice? We talk a lot about how usdc and other stable coins could legitimize a fork based on which assets they recognize. But, imagine if the us starts staking eth validators and then, because it's government, they never update their clients for upgrades and only recognize the old chain. Are we just stuck with that chain because of their economic influence? Are we cool with (committed to) forking out and slashing the us government?

Imagine if the Renaissance, the collapse of Rome, and the industrial revolution all happened at the same time. I think that's where we're headed on the timeline

Twitter might be increasingly transforming into a text based fascist tiktok. A tool for a major power to interfere adversarially with politics in its foreign interests

@dwr.eth would be cool if we could use warps to fund our wallets in some way, either directly or to pay gas in some way
