If 3074 were "enshrining EOAs", then what do we call the current path of having no way for EOAs to upgrade to contract accounts? How about "calcifying EOAs"? Like arterial plaque, the EOAs will be here forever now.

Was trying to look up the opposite of monopoly, and gpt gave me monopsony, which is when there's only one buyer of a good instead of only one supplier, which is indeed an opposite on one dimension, but I meant more like "there's competition". Any better term? "Efficient market"?

Did anyone else landing in Istanbul briefly mishear and start getting excited for some “electronic jazz” on landing? Lucky a Teardrop/Avishai Cohen concert came on Tv to scratch that itch while I work on slides.

Giving four talks at Devconnect this week. I probably should've only signed up for one, but since I've got the slots, I decided to build them into a complementary series that builds a larger thesis on rethinking the concept of wallet-site connection. Hope to see you there!

I just had a pretty exciting idea for this talk. Not too late to rewrite, I can use the planned talk elsewhere.. https://x.com/consensys/status/1719797538889269388?s=46

Netflix is finally cracking down on account sharing. I think we all knew that was inevitable. I think the polite move would have been giving the free-riders a chance to export their profiles, though. I know, they were mooches, but you're asking them to start paying something, so maybe worth starting on a good foot.

I don't know who to blame for this nonsense: zoom or MacOS. But There's no way I'm granting this without any understanding of either what's at risk or why I would grant it.

now that Apple added conversation awareness to the AirPods Pro, they just need to add “I was just singing along to the music“ awareness.

Bill Watterson’s new book “The Mysteries” is so bleak and misanthropic, it reminds me of when George Carlin went hard misanthrope and alienated a lot of his former audience. Beautiful fable and illustrations, though. Imagine it’s written by Calvin’s dad.

Weird how digital media marks time like “ah yes, the weekend that Leonard Cohen died and Snapchat released its gender swapping filter”.

Did some back of the gpt reasoning, and it seems like if this is even within an order of magnitude of accuracy, it would be significant enough to consider rethinking the infrastructure of urination. We may be pissing away 128.115 billion liters/year of diesel fuel equivalent.

So every welder eventually experiences vision loss b/c filters are imperfect. So, there's a market for AR goggles for welders. Who wants to save the vision of welders, and make welding a safer craft?

These Disney live action films are a classic case of “spent so much time asking if you could, you didn’t stop to ask if you should”.

My feed is full of what appears to be damage control about a hypothetical outrage about state pruning that I see none of. That's an interesting phenomenon. Makes sense to me that storage isn't free/eternal.
