We needn’t assume a central villain in a land of evil.
We needn’t assume a central hero in a land of virtue.
The conspiracy that rules us and the god that saves us are similar myths: desperate simplifications of a nuanced and decentralized world.
Say hello to two more players in the relay market thanks to the @GnosisDAO and @ultrasoundmoney communities.
To support their initial growth, we will be sending them blocks from the Flashbots block builder, effective immediately.
EIP-1559, the merge and wallet upgrades have _drastically_ improved the UX of sending ethereum transactions since 2020.
Now I can just send a transaction, not fiddling around at all with wallet settings, and usually see it included within a few seconds.
Oh I'll absolutely stand in solidarity here, I assume MM and every other wallet is next. I'm ready to dump the Apple ecosystem. The 30% tax is an abuse of monopoly. @tim_cook has donned the Big Brother screen.
So I guess we still haven't figured out how not to give large-scale murderers and thieves unlimited opportunity to become the primary topic of public conversation...
We really need better edgelords.
Is there a name for the "we know what kind of person you are, we're just haggling over the price" fallacy?
That is, the (false) idea that the only two philosophically consistent ways to behave are to hold to a principle infinitely strongly or to not have that principle at all.
@coinmamba I'd recommend increasing your distance from trading/investing circles, and getting closer to the tech and application ecosystem. Learn about ZK-SNARKs, visit a meetup in Latin America, listen to All Core Devs calls and read the notes until you've memorized all the EIP numbers...
"Hacking" the GPT3 chatbot is not as easy as some of the twitter screenshots make it seem. I have managed to do it in some cases, but it's hard and it does take a few tries. Using tricks from 1-2 day old screenshots verbatim often does not work.
@thestaffdev Or put another way, everyone who failed is staying silent to avoid the feeling of embarrassment.
Publicly admitting failures is an underrated and brave thing to do, because it provides society with useful information that we need in order to not get a distorted view of the world
Of all the optimistic 00s era takes, "AI will think logically from first principles so it will be free from human biases" has probably died the hardest.
I'd add that technology for coordinating and coming to large-scale agreements (eg. https://t.co/TFuRobvmop ) is one of the industries that needs to be accelerated.
Good balanced thread on levels of Russian support for the war.
"It's just Putin and maybe 87 other people who are the problem" is false, but "everyone in Russia bad" is also false.
Difficult topic but it's important to have good info to have the best chance of ending the war.
