A new revision of the Snapchain paper is now out. It might be one of the most important improvements we've made to the Farcaster experience. - Message delays will be fixed - Adding apps will cost nothing - Removing apps won't delete data https://warpcast.notion.site/Snapchain-v2-Public-10e6a6c0c101807aadfacbcddda8ce4f

One way to look at the possible effects of deepfakes in politics is to look at "shallow fakes" that have been possible for a long time. For example, this screenshot purporting to be a "you're free to say whatever nasty stuff you want" whitelist for twitter. I actually have no idea if this is real or fake, but there definitely are some people who are treating it as real, imo without sufficient evidence. And yet, the effects of things like this are pretty bounded. This feels like a plausible outcome for deepfakes in politics.

In preparation for 2.0, if you run a bootstrap peer, please contact me, there are important notes for those running bootstraps, and I'd also like to make sure the list is up to date. If you don't currently run a bootstrap peer but would like to (understand there are no rewards in doing this), please let me know

My hot take re "too much investment in infra": there's too much investment in *some kinds of infra* and not enough in others, and what's actually going on is, people want to invest in "the casino" but still feel good about themselves, so they invest in the subset of infra that gets spillover profits from the casino.
