The Spacemesh network is under growing strain due to the rapidly increasing number of miners. Read these two articles to understand what we're doing about this today and what we might choose to do longer term. First, an article we just published in the company blog https://x.com/teamspacemesh/status/1797556144665206954

Short break from tech. I wrote something a little more reflective and personal this week. I hope it resonates, and I hope you find it useful. Just published: Chapters https://open.substack.com/pub/rettig/p/chapters?r=16en&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

I don't mind at all paying for a pass here and there, and I've paid for a few, but effectively having to pay for every individual "hashtag" I use is getting expensive and untenable. I'm interested in a lot of topics! Maybe there's a better way to prevent spam...

I've been thinking more about AI lately, and in particular about the things it still can't do (but, hopefully, someday will be able to!)

Finally got around to playing with this AO computer thing. It feels a lot like /urbit a few years ago (before the Landscape UI launched). Fresh, exciting, high potential, but still really clumsy. Interesting.

Wait, farcaster doesn't support hashtags? Like, at all? So if you want to talk about something that isn't a user and isn't a channel... how do you do that? Or are you supposed to turn everything into a channel? But that costs money and requires owners? I really don't get it.

This is the direction we're going with the #athenavm and it's kind of a big deal. Writing a bunch on it this week, more soon. https://warpcast.com/lane/0x100eb113

The combination of Rust, RISC-V, LLVM, and ZK is extraordinarily powerful and will have a big impact on the future of computing. It's nuanced and I think most people haven't figured this out yet, but smart folks are starting to wake up to it.

This was a fun one! This week I wrote about one of my favorite topics, virtualization and abstraction in the long-arc context of application architecture, computing, the web, and blockchain. https://open.substack.com/pub/rettig/p/everywhere-all-at-once?r=16en&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

This week I built… Archbot! along with master hipster @ale. See description below. https://warpcast.com/lane/0x288d5b84 @daimo-pay uses @base USDC and we use the Daimo API to read a farcaster user’s registered base wallet address

Still recovering from an all night hack session, my first in a few years. @ale and I built a bot+frame combo called @archbot that’s a decentralized p2p exchange for @daimo-pay $USDC on @base <> Venmo $USD. E2E demo is here: https://warpcast.com/archbot/0x095223ff

I've been a lot less active here the past couple of weeks because of what seems like unnecessary gatekeeping in the Farcaster community. Posted more about it here: https://twitter.com/lrettig/status/1775628342018113705

Just concluded a very intense week of research with the research team. I originally intended to post updates here throughout the week but between research and fighting jet lag there really wasn’t a chance 😅 Working on some summary notes now, more soon! ✌️
