Wanting to appear wise, thoughtful, and possessed of virtuous character paradoxically seems to lead people straight into a specific attractor of unwise, thoughtless, vices. 🤔 I’m not perverse enough to prefer open degeneracy instead, but the posture I trust most is a sort of battered, derelict, unsteady virtue

Most surreal part of a rollercoaster last couple of weeks, I have an opportunity to buy an NFT of an AI-generated image of my arm. https://cointelegraph.com/news/filecoin-foundation-chinese-legal-inquiry-stfil-incident (detained developers are okay and have now met with their lawyers.

Filecoin now has a RetroPGF program! Nominate a project and they could get a cut of 200K of FIL! https://github.com/filecoin-project/community/discussions/691 (includes the whole Filecoin stack, so that also includes IPFS and LibP2P and other key dependencies)

@greg @zachterrell would it be possible to restart https://farcaster.network ? It looks like it stopped updating in September, and if so, it'd be fascinating to see those stats now!

Hi @warpcast -- I'm seeing a couple of bugs. The email you send for me to buy WARP aren't getting through, and folks I invite with a link get "signupforInvite 500 -- Internal server error" when they try and join.

Zama, and their Python->Fully homomorphic encryption compiler. Third-parties process your encrypted data, get answers only you can decode -- and never see your original data. For me, this has been the Holy Grail of privacy for years and the perfect complement to /zk https://github.com/zama-ai/concrete
