us-east-1's slogan should be "always active"

One of the interesting things I've found while coding is that timestamp 0 is jan 1 1970.  While i've known this for a while as a developer, it never occurred to me that this *had* to be an arbitrary social choice since there is no natural lower bound.

phew, they dropped it because "Germany, Austria, Poland, the Netherlands and the Czech Republic  were expected to abstain or oppose the law over cybersecurity and privacy concerns."

I love how these models think transparent means a checkerboard background.

OSS projects run by SAAS providers who host the code are not really OSS projects since there is no general incentive to work on them.

My most requested feature for PFP shopping is preview in icon size.

Higher still needs a weird little guy. 

Will give 10k higher each to the 5 best weird little guy submissions (decided by me) that quote cast this cast into the /higher channel in the next week (until Tuesday, May 28 noon EST).

got a weirder little guy than my previous attempt. was unable to make his staff green but just imagine.

In the party that is web3, the dev is the DJ.

That moment when you connect all the foundational plumbing to the frontend client and it comes alive 😎

New two phase dev workflow:

Building locally:   edit  > docker build > docker run > curl

When it's "done":   edit > cdk deploy > curl

Local build is < 5 sec, cdk deploy is ~ 1 min.

base-builds

I spent a lot of time last week learning infrastructure-as-code. 

It all paid off this weekend since I can now see the data from my test contract on base sepolia using SELECT * on a database running in the cloud.

Minted some Hovercats and love them! 

The litterbox one is like a merit badge for all the time I've spent scooping cat litter. 💩

In the spirit of "work in public", I have published a little CDK + TypeScript app skeleton on Github.

It uses only AWS Lambda, API Gateway and a Postgres instance:

Conduit is backfilling transactions right now. Some transactions are time-based, so they won't be able to be replayed (e.g. some types of swaps). Other transactions will be able to be replayed as normal.

We'll have updated stats on which transactions can and cannot be replayed as Conduit continues the replay process.

Degen Chain failing and getting tangled on the floor is totally on-brand. Learn by doing. No risk, no reward. 

And remember, risk here is in being unable to execute a transaction during the outage, old chain state is not going anywhere.
