Given the rate that AI video generation is progressing, I think we're 6-12 months away from someone in their basement making a satisfying Game of Thrones finale with a $25 budget.

Okay more like 1-2 months away but ghibli style

Apple

Yes Apple, when I type in "spo" I want spotlight settings and not one of my most actively used desktop apps (spotify)

Anyone know of any good papers or discussions on the size of the human brain's "context window"? 

I can't imagine it's that much larger than SOTA LLMs, it's maybe just  being used more efficiently.

Minted this today.

Would happily exchange the current pumpfun era for peak artblocks era

Using tools that aren't "ai first" feels like writing with pen and paper after typing

Has anyone built a farcaster multisig? Basically something that forces n of m signatures to cast from an account. 

Given all the organization account compromises in web3, seems this would be extremely valuable in cementing FC as the trusted/official channel for brands.

Warpcast

private key is shamir sharded on your device into 3 shards, any 2 of which can reconstruct the PK

1 shard remains on the device
1 shard is encrypted by a key that warpcast holds (recovery shard)
1 shard is encrypted by a key that Privy holds (auth shard)

all encryption also happens on your client

effectively the recovery and auth shards are both accessible by your custody address but via authing with two separate service providers

it’d take two separate breaches of warpcast and privy to compromise key material 

the reasons for doing this instead of  simple EOA are 
1) users won’t lose access to their funds bc it inherits the Farcaster recovery system since 2/3 can be accessed via SIWF (all without needing the user to backup anything themselves)
2) users can seamlessly access their wallet on any device (i.e. web) without needing to manually move a seed phase around in a reasonably secure way

Farcaster wallets seem well positioned to quickly become the most widely adopted recoverable self-custodial crypto wallets. 

Social connectivity aside, just the UX gain at the wallet level resulting from this is a big deal. 

Great work @dwr.eth @v 🙌

In light of all the Super Bowl ads, @bryanjohnson I would love to get your take on Poppi and Olipop 🥤

Does this mean @jessepollak is joining Merkle next?!

life update: i’m joining merkle!

absolute dream come true to work with a team and help grow a community that’s meant so much to me for so long.

i couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead. just getting started :)

I reckon Merkle has got to have one of the easiest times hiring in Web3. 

The actual dream team is engaging as DAUs and already building on FC. 

Congrats @ted and @woj.eth 🙌

If there was a way to access vector embeddings for every cast in FC history, what would you build with it?

Draft Roulette: every day, one randomly chosen draft gets auto casted 🌶️

Being sick really wrecks recovery: 97% sleep, 3% recovery

On  X, a repost (without a quote) still shows up on the profile's primary feed. Not the case for warpcast. 

@dwr.eth out of curiosity, why did warpcast choose to deviate? Wouldn't this help to amplify quality content and help newer members get traction?

Food

Went down a rabbit hole over Christmas to find the best dry pasta 1) from Italy 2) easy enough to get without too much advanced planning (ie Amazon) and have been happy with Monograno Felicetti.

Blind taste test confirmed!

Deep Research is a winner if it finds Monograno when posed with the same constraints.
