#web3 dev + auditor | @SpearbitDAO LSR, @immunefi bug hunter, sage of AAVE codebase :D

[StErMi @StErMi]

During the next few days, I will share some of my private security research work that I have done in the last year.
​
All those projects are @aave related, and I feel very proud to have been chosen as one of the security partners to review them. I'm pretty sure that the dedication and knowledge that I have demonstrated on their codebase has been a pretty good investment 😁
​
Those projects were very challenging, but at the same time it was fun and a pleasure because you always feel motivated and engaged when the quality of documentation, specifications and code is high quality.
​
When @avara or @bgdlabs contacts you, you know that you are going to enjoy it. They are both a top-notch team to work with.
​
The first one that I want to share is a.DI (Aave Delivery Infrastructure)

It's a cross-chain communication abstraction layer for decentralised systems like the Aave DAO to communicate across networks, minimising the risk of underlying individual bridge provider failures, via consensus rules.

bad UX <.<

you should never change the user's default behavior unless you prompt for a confirmation (with an explanation). Or because the previous behavior is not relevant anymore, but I doubt that now we have no more context rot / unlimited context 😄

[StErMi @StErMi]

@nisedo_ Impossible to recover

[StErMi @StErMi]

@aviggiano Ok but they also applied that default on everyone because at the beginning I was seeing that

[StErMi @StErMi]

@grok seems to confirm it as a "known bug". It still has not been fixed 🥲

[StErMi @StErMi]

@nikitabier there's something wrong in my "Following" timeline.

I'm starting to see posts from people that I do not follow and there's no context attached to the post. Usually it would happen (in this timeline) if those posts were retweeted/fav/commente by someone that I already follow. But that information is not bound to the post I'm seeing.

We have two options: the timeline alg is picking from the "For you" feed or you are not showing "why" I'm seeing those posts (who from my follow list has interacted with that post and how) anymore. In both cases there's a bug to fix.

Am I the only one that thinks that sharing links between the iphone and mac trought airdrops is a mess and never works even if both my iPhone and Mac are 1 inch from each other connected to the same wifi?

it never works. So frustrating 🥲

[StErMi @StErMi]

Does Codex share knowledge with ChatGPT or is it completely isolated?

Because I like the Codex UI/UX more than ChatGPT but I have a history in the chat and I would like to leverage that memory.

[StErMi @StErMi]

@nisedo_ Aren’t claims simply invariants?

[StErMi @StErMi]

@markgurman Are those features only available to the new ring or will be available also to the v4?

[StErMi @StErMi]

@theo New video on this?

[Antonio Viggiano @aviggiano]

My first blog post for @monad's security team is out.

We spent a month building an AI system to hunt vulnerabilities in the Monad blockchain

here's what we learned

[StErMi @StErMi]

I have so much that I want to learn, experiment with and build but so little time and energy after working hard all day long 🥲

Any labs that wants to sponsor me? 😄

[StErMi @StErMi]

@aviggiano If the content is what I think it is

[StErMi @StErMi]

@aviggiano Let me know how it goes. I have a pretty long knowledge file to feed something like that with 😁

But I’m not sure if a skill produced like that would bring more harm than good

[StErMi @StErMi]

@linuz90 but how much would it consume compared to the design choices they have made?

[StErMi @StErMi]

I won’t argue about the design and I won’t defend it from a pure aesthetic prospective but I’m sure (or at least I hope) that this is the best design they could make to have the best outcome considering both the performance and the max range. I think that there are still hard choice that you must make to avoid air resistance

[StErMi @StErMi]

Ok, in Italy it's getting pretty hot (&gt;30c) but I think that my MacBook Pro M3 is overheating (the keyboard is hot as hell) because of Codex (even if it's just idling).

The battery is also getting wrecked in &lt;1h.

Is it just me? @OpenAIDevs no one has reported this issue?

[StErMi @StErMi]

@ChatGPTapp why can't I choose the model and the thinking level when I start a new chat in a Project?

It's not possible on the native macOS app but I can do it on the web version.

[StErMi @StErMi]

@MerlinEgalite @EricJorgenson Which one?
