Do any chains have a stablecoin gas token? Kind of feels like a no-brainer

Drives me crazy when APIs demand to take over my .env

"Hello, yes, setup is very easy you'll just need to add the APP_ID, KEY_SECRET, KEY_NAME, KEY_ID, CLIENT_ID, FAVORITE_COLOR, and SSN to the .env, then spin in a circle 3 times while screaming the magic word"

Heard a great talk yesterday about how much standards suck and I think I agree. Probably deserves a blog post but yeah, ERCs are dumb

Common argument for "export private key", but it's actually an argument against. If an app can show you your private key, it means they can show themselves too. So... yeah... they've got your keys and there's nothing you can do about it

Natural selection is coming to Farcaster!

Hot take: I strongly disagree with this.

How "natural" something feels at first should have very little impact on your choice of tech. Fear of a learning curve causes a lot of long-term harm because those things that are easier at first get exponentially more difficult at scale.

This was the Farcaster strategy when I first became active here in late 2023. Those days were so much fun

The best way to grow on this app is to build stuff and share it, which means devs have a significant advantage

Prediction: As AI becomes more real, humans will become obsessed with permanence. We’ll build monuments to last millennia, books will start to emulate the classics rather than pop fiction, and movies will become more thoughtful and less of a brain dead money grab.
