Guile Hoot 0.5.0 is probably the most performant, meterable, safest to write language to ever become trivially executable in the browser. It deserves to spark a modularity renaissance. It is a strong answer to "how to give an AI agent limited permissions that are also dynamic?" People have no idea. https://spritely.institute/news/guile-hoot-v050-released.html

What if a site wants to manage a key directly, but have it derived from the user's wallet? This seems like a growing use case with embedded wallets. Should we have a method that just passes sites keys that are generated deterministically to their domains? https://ethereum-magicians.org/t/wallet-getexposedappkey/20958

Happy Labor Day, folks. Amazing how much people have managed to organize to protect themselves in the face of the mill of economics. I wonder how much further people might negotiate their positions given more ideal coordination tools.

People throwing around "proof of personhood" like it's a problem that has already been solved, or is trivially solved. I can't shake the feeling we've done our people wrong by letting this stuff slide. Is it too late to adopt a culture of being specific about the solutions we're referring to?

Was thinking about what I play board games for (fun + collecting mechanisms and their intuitions), in light of what I hope those mechanisms can do (empower the disadvantaged), and it started making me wonder if you could make a board game where: 1. Players start with deliberately unfair distribution of points/resources. 2. Resources could be purchased directly from other players at agreed/colluded prices. Could we start a genre that develops the muscles for coordinating under severe imbalance? Seems like it could develop more relevant skills than the normal ("zero to win") type games today.

I think it’s awesome to create avenues for people to start small cottage businesses, yes even with a little warning on the label.

Donate if you can to accelerate research on a promising avenue to accelerate the benefits of meditation with ultrasound. In the future, quieting intrusive thoughts and finding simple clear awakening should be a normal accessible tool for anyone. https://x.com/shinzenyoung/status/1828282468312502335

I took a similar lesson from a summer twisting balloon animals. Two cents of rubber could instantly become worth hundreds of dollars with the right story and a little skill.

If you did this right, and casts were self-cacheable, a "sign in with warpcast" to your blog should be able to pass the posts (& proof) to the blog so embedded casts can live as long as the blog, not as the prior caches.

Biggest missing feature here is some profile icon on the main page that takes you to your profile. Profile is important! The gateway to your history! I don't want to have to read to find it.

It's so funny how email's architecture means that if you use one of those address-anonymization services, it necessitates that service now having access to your email. So Apple is all helpful "hey let's help you stay private & give you ability to revoke email address. All it will cost is your privacy!"
