Küçükçekmece'deki metrobüs kazasında 1 hemşehrimizin yaşamını yitirmesinden büyük üzüntü duydum. Hayatını kaybeden vatandaşımıza Allah'tan rahmet, yakınlarına baş sağlığı; yaralı vatandaşlarımıza acil şifa diliyorum. Kazayla ilgili başlattığımız kapsamlı soruşturma devam ediyor.
2500 yeni taksi İstanbul’a hayırlı olsun.
Uygulama Tabanlı Taksi Sistemi ile çağdaş, güvenli, erişilebilir, denetlenebilir, şeffaf ve teknolojik bir taksi sistemine geçiyoruz. Uzun çabalar sonucu UKOME'de bu teklifimize destek veren bütün bileşenlere teşekkürler.
İBB olarak Gölbaşı ilçesinde 5 dönümlük çok güzel bir kent parkı yaptık. Ayrıca Yaylakonak’ta depremde ağır hasar alan ve sonrasında yıkılan 54 metre uzunluğunda bir köprünün inşaatını tamamladık ve açıyoruz. https://t.co/zPM42omrhL
Küçükçekmece’de meydana gelen Metrobüs kazasında yaralanan vatandaşlarımızı ziyaret ettim. Hepsine tekrardan geçmiş olsun dileklerimi paylaşıyorum. Tedavi süreçlerini yakından takip edeceğiz, acil şifalar dilerim. Kazayla ilgili tüm idari süreçler titizlikle incelenecek, sonuçları kamuoyuyla paylaşılacaktır.
Hedef özgürlükse, mümkün olan tek şey zaferdi.
Cumhuriyetimizin kurucusu Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk ve silah arkadaşlarına minnetle…
30 Ağustos Zafer Bayramımız kutlu olsun!🇹🇷
Kurtuluşun hikayesinin yazıldığı, Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’ü Milli Mücadele’ye uğurlayan şehir olmanın gururuyla 30 Ağustos Zafer Bayramımız kutlu olsun. 🇹🇷
Every decision we make as a team towards building @zksync is driven by our ethos, which is based on integrity and transparency. We have made honest mistakes in the past, but we always did our best to openly acknowledge them and take responsibility. And will always do so in the future.
However, today’s accusations are unfounded, misleading, and extremely disappointing coming from a team I highly respect.
The reader of the Polygon Zero post is left with the impression that Boojum is largely using Plonky2 code with little innovation, and that we allegedly re-used this code without providing any attribution to the original work. These claims could not be further from truth.
I really want to believe in the good intentions of the Polygon Zero team (which I highly respect for their excellent work). I am deeply passionate about the mission of @zksync and the amazing work our team is doing, and I’m sure the same applies to the authors of the post and their work. Alas, passion can at times lead to rushed arguments and inaccurate statements.
So I’m going to share pure facts here and let the reader come to their own conclusions. Here is what you need to know:
• Both Plonky2 and Boojum are implementations of the RedShift construction (PLONK + FRI).
• RedShift (1) was introduced by @the_matter_labs team 3 years before Plonky2 paper. (2)
• Plonky2 team never gave us credit (although they refered to RedShift in their paper). We never bothered. It’s great to see someone improving on your work!
• Only ~5% of the Boojum code is based on the code of Plonky2.
• For the reused code, a clear attribution is provided in line #1 of the main file of the module. (3)
• The rest of the files are provided as they are. If they contained more information about the authors, we would obviously have copied that.
• In addition, the README file contains an acknowledgement to Plonky2. (4)
• In addition, the intro post contains an attribution to Plonky2, with specific names of the authors. (5)
We could have done it better. The community rightfully pointed out that there is a more standard approach to attributions, which we will wholeheartedly apply from now on.
Open Source is all about genuine cooperation. If the Polygon Zero team wanted additional credit, the easiest way would have been to submit a pull request which we would have happily accepted. Going ahead with public accusations of a complete lack of attribution (even if it was true, which is not the case here) is anything but the spirit of the Open Source movement. If you’re not happy about others – including potential competitors – using parts of your code, maybe Open Source is not for you?
Now, the part that I am most surprised about is complaints about benchmarking.
The whole point of neutral 3rd party benchmarks is to compare apples to apples, going beyond marketing noise and nuances of implementation. If you are unhappy with the choice of the benchmarking function (SHA256) or your implementations being unoptimized, why put your code out for benchmarking in the first place and then endorse it?

If someone can take 5% of the Boojum code and make it 10x faster, not only will we consider this a breakthrough work and immediately hire this person, – @shamatar will name one of his cats in their honor.
We all stand on the shoulders of giants. Boojum is built leveraging the work of the brightest minds contributing to the field of cryptography. And we fully agree with the Polygon Zero team: “We can sustainably build software in the open, leveraging the combined talent and expertise of entire communities, and everyone benefits.” This is why Boojum was open-sourced under a free permissive license the moment it was released to the public, just like ZK Stack, and like every other software component we will ever create for @zksync. Each of them is a small step on the long journey to scale Ethereum along with its values.

Muharrem İnce bana da küstü. Fakat neden küstü, hangi aşamada küstü, onu anlayamadım. Arıyorum, açmıyor. Bir siyasetçinin, hele hele Cumhurbaşkanı adayının gazeteciye küsmesi çok tuhaf.
