Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

Superconductors, it looks like they'll be confirmed soon and the 1st, 2nd, 3rd order effects will be really fun to discuss.

They’ll be doubly relevant with crypto because everyone using common bit strength curves will need to pivot fast into stronger curves due to risks

Yeah how much do you think this pushes quantum compute? Now that you might not need the giant cooling apparatus. So many things to consider

This is more of a watershed moment for traditional compute, think terahertz CPUs

Isn't frequency more a factor of size of die vs speed of light? (Heat would definitely be less of an issue, but I imagine the signal travel distance is the main factor?)

A doodler and computerer. I like permissive/permissionless open source, smart contracts, p2p systems, room-scale VR, and NixOS.

Currently: WhatsABI

It’s more an issue with semiconductor fabrication — there’s few processes for manufacturing semiconductors that work at terahertz clock speeds, and of those that do, they are extremely expensive, require very absurd cooling processes, and use a lot of energy. An ideal superconductor would not suffer this problem
