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

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. The smart people know not to trust a politician's statements without confirmation on official channels, and less smart people get tricked, as they do today with shallow fakes. If something fake goes viral, Community Notes can help on the margin in making it clear that it's fake. Most normies don't actually look at this stuff in real time, and so the effect ends up not too bad. This is the strongest case for not being too worried. The place where I am *more* worried about deepfakes is...

Do people use Polymarket to hedge? e.g. long Trump memecoins and bet on Trump to lose at the same time?

I am noticing that the most successful new ideologies of the past decade are very object-level (prescriptions on specific issues) and quite little meta-level (social processes for making decisions on object-level issues). Examples: * Abstract libertarianism feels much weaker than 10 years ago. But issue-specific versions of it are quite successful: YIMBY (housing), the crypto space * e/acc (it's about all technology in theory, but ends up being about AI in practice) * The largest cluster in effective altruism morphed from being meta-level ("think harder to making sure your donations are going where they can do the most good!") to object level (AI safety, with a little bit of animal welfare and global public health) * Longevity movement Maybe network states and Glen and Audrey's Plurality movement are two exceptions - but in general the above feels like a strong pattern. Any ideas why this meta level -> object level shift seems to be taking place?

My prediction for streaks: We’re all gonna end up with streak anxiety, and someone will make a bounty for a simple app that will maintain your streak if you have a long flight or something.

I love when an investor says they’re interested in farcaster, and you check their profile and they don’t even cast.

My friend played my VR game, Derby, in my headset and started to get recognized by players… The result is hilarious

Was stuck at 183K for months. We started charging for things in our free VR game and our comments were flooded with players asking “WHY CHARGE?!” We thought it’d be bad for the brand to talk about money. WRONG. Made the video explaining why VR games need to make money. Broke the logjam. We are growing again!

When debugging a ZKP verifier, make sure to keep checking not just that the proof verifies on valid inputs, but also that the proof verification returns an error on invalid inputs (or with nonsensical tweaks to the verification mechanism).

Is there a plugin for "click on this bullet to zoom into it as if it were a page without converting it to a page"? This is something I enjoyed from both Roam and Workflowy. Would that be a plugin-able feature?
