It was a mistake to use the word "toffee" for some candy thing. I just accidentally made a 50/50 tea+coffee mix, and coffee people actually liked it. We should call that toffee instead.

https://x.com/linakhanFTC/status/1823094653962289640 This seems good but there was a much easier way to accomplish this objective: payment interfaces should have been designed from the start to make subscriptions one-click cancellable from the user interface. Like, you should be able to go into your banking UI, see all active subscriptions, and one-click cancel any of them. From that point, it's the service's responsibility to stop providing you service. One benefit of crypto is that if you try to make a subscription system on top of it, you pretty much *have to* do it that way.

Added more M31 and binary field support to zorch: https://github.com/vbuterin/zorch Now you can write reasonably-performant STARK proving code that runs on your GPU, in python! Below is the full arithmetization of poseidon. I welcome others taking this and running with it.

Remember "proof of location", and fancy schemes we crypto people would come up with that were based on network delay / speed of light calculations? Turns out people are looking into using that stuff.... for export control of AI chips https://www.iaps.ai/research/location-verification-for-ai-chips

Somehow I absolutely love this most recent SSC post: https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/matt-yglesias-considered-as-the-nietzschean I feel like the best of pre-2020 Scott is back. Also, his takedown of the first person to reply to him in the comments is just excellent.

"The highest risk retail see is losing funds" From live EDCON broadcast https://www.youtube.com/live/7dPKrzSVUTs Big appreciation to all working on wallet security, account abstraction, dapp security, anti-fraud, etc The real alpha is not in getting 8% APR instead of 5% APR, it's making sure you don't get -100% APR.
