Brazil is blocking X. The judiciary system has just issued the order and it includes a hefty fine for those caught on VPNs trying to access it. Luckily we have farcaster. Hope more Brazilians migrate here.

First time streaming on @unlonely in a couple of hrs (12PM UTC) - wish the @cartesi team luck! We’ll be spotlighting builders from the ecosystem, starting with Willem who’s building CarteZcash which allows anyone to use /zcash on Ethereum with a Cartesi RollApp. More on the what/how/why in the call! https://lu.ma/kbptno9s

What would be your dream blockchain application if you had no data or execution constraints and transactions were free of charge? I was thinking about this last night and came up with an idea I really like: it disguises itself as a social network but is actually a marketplace for recommendation algorithms! Imagine a data feed where you pay a tiny amount (say 10^-8 USD per second) to be on it. Part of the payment goes to the content creator, and the rest compensates the algorithm for recommending that content to you. You can switch the algorithms that order your content at any moment, and the better job an algorithm does, the more money it earns. Additionally, there could be markets for specialized algorithms, such as those with natural biases, child-specific algorithms, no-politics filters, etc. Of course, you could choose to have ads, and the ads would pay both the content creator and the algorithm on your behalf.

I like books, but I like book titles even more. Recently, I read two books that I chose simply because of their titles, and I ended up loving them: "The Weight of the Dead Bird" and "The Nature of the Bite." (definitely agree with your main point, btw)

I believe that neither BOLD nor OPFP is well-suited for appchains. BOLD appears sufficient to defend a shared chain that has lots funds and eyes on it. But, the advantage heroes have doesn't seem enough for smaller chains. It's a similar situation to the double-spending attacks we've seen on smaller PoW chains.

Hey friends, I need help finding a @sassal.eth quote from one of the episodes. It was about us creating the most resilient financial system ever — open source, always on, permissionless access etc. I really liked it and want to use in something I'm writing. Anyone remembers which episode that was? Thanks a bunch!

Nice! I've been trying to onboard my brother, but he's been having the same payment issue. Maybe I should just gift him an account!

Fault proofs are quite important for modular execution layers to be able to prove reasonably sized computations to other pieces of the stack (be it a settlement layer or another appchain). The current algorithms are not ideal at all. Help us create standards: https://ethresear.ch/t/fraud-proofs-are-broken/19234/7

Are fault proofs broken? https://ethresear.ch/t/fraud-proofs-are-broken/19234/4 This piece breaks down the problems with current algorithms, gives us a better framework for reasoning about fps and invites us all to a more open and honest research and development process. Great read! Kudos @gcdepaula !

Bugless: A general decentralized bug hunting platform. A sponsor adds a program, describes how it can't be broken and creates a bounty in case someone breaks it. Their first run will be with the solidity compiler. I can see this becoming an immune system for the internet. https://github.com/crypto-bug-hunters/bugless

“You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality.” But I do think that framing is really important and that there are different ways to perceive and interpret reality. Extreme situations and feelings are much less malleable. But, for every day stuff, framing things well is powerful

If you had infinite compute you could train an LLM on existing casts to estimate how interesting a new cast would be. For accounts younger than x days, thats the score you'd use. After that, you're back with the usual engagement metrics 😛 (but you prob don't have infinite compute, so its a very hard problem)
