Come see me at Protocol Berg!

There is a such thing as a Texas Otaku, and he runs a bar in Tokyo where he keeps Aura at 1,000%

Ethereum Beacon Chain Blackjack 🃏 For funsies could someone create a program that reads the Ethereum consensus layer, sees the validators selected from the selected committee, and simulate a blackjack game where the block proposer is the dealer and the attesters are blackjack players?

Saying "Lincoln was a Republican" is like saying “Kevin Spacey won an Oscar.” Technically it’s true, but a lot of shit has happened since then

sure, rose following a known coordinator of bad actors would be warranted, but katie has argued convincingly that it's a renamed account (whether sold or takeoverèd), and rose may have followed its previous incantation, as it's older than bsky itself: bsky.app/profile/juic...

Young Metro could make a ton of money if he became a smart contract auditor & his stamp of approval was on codebases. "Trusted by Young Metro" stamps on the project page will certify Young Metro trusts them. A stamp with bullet holes indicates he doesn't trust the project.

Some of ya'll may not be able to see your blood relatives for the holidays this year, by choice or otherwise. Remember that family is who you choose and "𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲" is very real and very special.

I hung out with the EigenLayer team. They handed me a tab of something. "What is this?" "It will show you the future - EIPs yet to be written, multilayered hypothecation, and the radical multi-chain experience." Now I see liquid staking derivatives the way our God desired us to.

please stop joining the federated network social experimenting on moderation and promptly complaining about the moderation experiments and the decentralization

Will we get shut down? That is for [REDACTED HOTEL NAME] to decide!

Is Fight Club a DAO? In this essay I will...

Having the Bluesky community collectively rebel against @jay.bsky.team (Bluesky CEO) by changing the name of posts on the timeline to "skeets" is a lesson in the value of progressive decentralization.

Matt do you think fuck Alf is just a little bit too extreme for the median American voter

You know there are bad communities with infighting and drama and such. And then there is the Internet Computer (ICP). The Internet Computer is like if you were creating a play about a larp about a useless cryptocurrency community.

Teeth are outside bones.

we’re a small team, working as hard as we can, juggling multiple priorities to build a usable social app at the same time as a decentralized social protocol. we chose to do this hard mode (both protocol and product) so we could show, not tell, that the AT Protocol works. thanks for kicking the tires

I'm in the middle of CERT training so I'm ready for emergencies like forest fires, and I freaking love the philosophy! Very mutual aid adjacent. Not rugged independence, more like everyone can be prepared to help, and big outside organizations aren't going to be there for you at least at first

Post an embarrassing picture of you as a teen. Teen Hudson was very xXRAwRXx

"What's the matter? Is something wrong?" "Wrong? No, no, everything's just..." "I'm not even sure I know who I am." "Well, we can certainly straighten you out on that." "Just who are you?" "I'm your better self, your subconscious self." "My what?" "Your better self."

Anyone going to the Consensus conference in Austin in 10 days? The tickets are $2k 😬 so I will probably drive down and just meet up with friends and stuff during it instead of actually attending....or sneak in 🤫

How about a whisp? A whisp is a flock of snipe birds (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/snipe). "I just wrote a new whisp on Bluesky!"

Please share something beautiful for the timeline Here’s my contribution ✨

Every now and then the discussion of adding new precompiles to Ethereum comes up. I plan to write something soon that addresses what they are, some history about them, why they are rarely added, and where that leaves us today. 🤓
