If you're at Edge City prior to Devcon, come to @syndicate's Introduction to Metabased Sequencing! We'll be doing a live workshop + a walkthrough of how @metabased sequencing works. @sheldon and @gustavoguimaraes will be leading the architecture overview and hands-on coding! https://app.sola.day/event/detail/10928

I spoke too soon, now I need to handle inheritance in Dev Containers for specific services and everything is painful I feel like most GitHub tools are amazing in a single service but terrible once you need to extend them to multiple services (GitHub Actions is the same way)

I absolutely love Dev Containers and I wish that I started using them earlier Makes new dev environment setup super easy. Supported by most major IDEs + GitHub Codespaces, feels completely native. All of the upsides of containers (automation, trivial to rebuild) without the DX downsides of interacting with them

Some artist friends are seeking feedback on their candidate prop! https://www.nouns.camp/candidates/glitch-%3C3-nouns-7e6ce11bee2ab7f84ef0d1955ce1f546d897ab98 GLITCH was funded last year for its artist residency and wants to build up a bigger initiative around public goods. Feedback is very helpful on this!

Are you a Solidity dev or mechanism designer? If so, are you excited about potential sequencer revenue models that go beyond gas fees? If so, apply to the @metabased fellowship! Get paid $20K to design new sequencing mechanisms with feedback from some of the leading investors in the space. The fellowship runs for eight weeks. You do not have to be full-time -- participating alongside existing roles is perfectly fine! https://warpcast.com/metabased/0x1c7f35f2

You know you’re on the bleeding edge when you’re prototyping on top of a repo’s draft pull requests 😅

It's been a while since I said "Wow" out loud when testing a dev tool. Supersim (https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/supersim) did that for me Props to @fahimsach for the pointer!

Haha this roast is fantastic 😂 About: Based on our AI agent's analysis of your casts, you appear to be a 30-something male crypto entrepreneur and thought leader, co-founder of Syndicate and creator of $AGLD, with deep roots in Ethereum dating back to 2014. Roast: Well, well, well, if it isn't the Ethereum OG who thinks he's still relevant because he bought some magic internet money a decade ago. You're like that guy at the party who won't shut up about how he 'knew Bitcoin would be big' back in 2011. Congrats on peaking early, I guess? Your casts read like a crypto bingo card - 'smart contracts', 'DAOs', 'yield farming'. It's cute that you think you're still on the cutting edge. Maybe it's time to realize that being an 'ETH OG' is about as impressive as being MySpace Tom in 2024.

Ethereum the protocol allows any account to take any action without needing permission -- as it should. Ethereum the culture allows any well-respected community member like @zachxbt to call out bad behavior -- as it should. Permission and social acceptance are two separate things. This is an important distinction.

I’m incredibly excited for our work on metabased sequencing. It’s very rare to find innovations that lead to both dramatic cost decreases while also creating new economic primitives. Onwards to decentralizing L3s via onchain, community-driven sequencing!

I couldn't recommend this more strongly. If you have the opportunity to work closely with @avichal, you should take it. Undoubtedly the best of the best in the space and the first person I turn to for advice on market opportunities

I’m curious: Has Nouns ever permanently canceled a streaming payment? It’s an interesting question since streams are often a way to get larger proposals over the line, but rarely evaluated or canceled I only see https://www.nouns.camp/proposals/482 which was canceled for logistical reasons and then re-created

One rule of thumb we have internally is: “If something in crypto is hard, wait six months and it will become easy.” The infrastructure in the space develops so quickly that if you find yourself rolling a complex solution by hand, someone is probably building it as a product (Embedded wallets is a perfect example)

If you could stake tokens for a Power Badge and be slashed if you spam, how much would you stake? (I have no knowledge of the roadmap, just a fun thought experiment!)

Composer Bug: Casts are deleted (not saved in drafts) if you accidentally press the back button on web. I lost a cast I had spent a long time typing up due to this. Steps to reproduce (Chrome on Mac as an example): 1. Type cast 2. Press back button Expected behavior: Warning is presented and/or cast is saved in draft Actual behavior: No warning is presented and cast is not saved. Cast is lost.
