Is there a way to use @superfluid to stream Uniswap swaps? Something like DCA: For example, lock an amount of USDC in Superfluid and have it swap to ETH, 1/100000 of the amount, every minute or something similar.

Curating casts into the appropriate channels is an important task. I appreciate anyone who takes the time to pick a cast and quote cast it to a channel that will get valuable from it.

An important case. What I read in this, is that "the algorithm"(*) is "first-party speech", with the protections AND liabilities that come from this. I.e. TikTok can be held liable for what it shows to users. (*) A more precise description would be an "opinionated algorithm", in contrast with an algorithm that shows random posts or orders them by timestamp for example. https://www.theverge.com/2024/8/28/24230523/tiktok-blackout-challenge-lawsuit-appeals-court

I think that a "raffle frame" would be useful to many Forecasters. Is there one already?

This channel is amazing, it's a pity so many good posts are hidden in recents and don't appear in main.

How do we grow Farcaster? The current consensus is by creating more and better content. In this article, I would like to offer an alternative strategy: Make Farcaster the best place to hold conversations. https://paragraph.xyz/@purplesubmarine/farcaster-as-a-better-place-for-conversations

More and more I use like as a signal I saw something and less as a “I like this” signal. Especially in replies to my casts.

I appreciate how Dan is always transparent, this is one of the things I appreciated in Farcaster since the early days. So, great AMA, visit the link to watch it. I've clipped this part, which is a great addition to what I've been talking about recently, regarding some aspects of freedom of speech in the US (which is considered the gold standard by most). The clip illustrates very clearly how what happens in practice, due to regulation, market structure, copyrights, etc. Still, not bad, but often far from the freedom offered by the First Amendment. https://warpcast.com/dwr.eth/0x32d329b7

On @vitalik.eth's "Glue and Coprocessor". A more abstract view would be soft/hard or design/manufacturing. Or USA/China. Or Apple/Shenzhen. Reading it with this pov, can also provide some insights on how the power/importance balance can shift from one component to the other through time, how vertical integration can change the balance, and how open vs integrated can compete. https://vitalik.eth.limo/general/2024/09/02/gluecp.html

2,270 weather stations for the Global South In the next few months, WeatherXM will deploy 2,270 weather stations in the Global South. This is an ambitious undertaking with the potential to make the WeatherXM Network an irreplaceable part of the global weather infrastructure, and at the same time improve the lives of people in poorer communities around the world. https://blog.weatherxm.com/2-270-weather-stations-for-the-global-south-0532a356e9ae

AI tools are becoming specialized. Let's say you want to generate a video clip. You'll use one AI tool to create images for the storyboard, then an other one to convert images to video, an other one for voice, an other one for underlying music, and so on. Just like you would need a whole team (of humans) to produce a video clip today. Will it be a winner-takes-it-all for each type of work? Probably not, I think each AI tool will have its own "personality" or specialization: this one is better at making photorealistic images, the other it better at illustrations, an other one is the best for natural landscapes, and so on.

I support freedom of speech. But I have not followed a single discussion about it that isn't either superficial and/or biased. I see people who blame Brazil for banning X (did they actually do it?) but are ok with US banning TikTok. Others who fight freedom of speech and at the same time dream of living in Dubai. I recently listened to a respected crypto founder who wants to leave Canada for UAE. And then 5 minutes later, he is discussing how crazy it is that France arrested Pavel Durov. Wtf? https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/websites-blocked-in-uae/
