I was today years old when I learn of Alcohol-induced Retrograde Facilitation - where drinking alcohol after learning helps to lock in the information. sooo drinking after studying will get you better grades

Why didn't I learnt of this earlier in my life??!?

unpopular opinion: I just want my wallet to be secure, anonymous, and respecting my privacy

[nairolf @0xNairolf]

wallets are easily the biggest distribution channels in crypto

so it’s honestly surprising we still don’t offer their own app store or discovery tool

they already know what chains you use, what apps you’ve interacted with and how often

imagine how helpful it would be to get smart suggestions of apps that are trending or that actually match your onchain history

it would make exploring new projects way more intuitive

@JoshWComeau where I'm from, most of us set to en-GB or en-US due to default from devices, instead of en-SG

@jean__gatt @Aidancramer thank you for sharing. it's interesting. then in the case for platforms like Instagram, would it have the same feasibility in your opinion?

[CK | ckisme @ck_is_me]

@jean__gatt @Aidancramer and reason that would lead you to engage with nano influencers?

@kyliebytes Feel like Clubhouse all over again

Girls, in their car: I have passengers in my car. I have a heavy responsibility. I'm going to ensure their safety 🧐

Guys in their car: I have audiences in my car and I'm going to show them how fast I can drive 🤪 *honk honk*

The New York Times successfully transformed their business model from ads to subscriptions

It’s one of the most interesting case studies of the internet era

@radoshi all three of them won, but the user loses

Put anyone reasonably competent and well intentioned into any relevant position that's challenging and a big leap up, and you'll watch that person rises and fill that role 👑

Wow, just got this cool NFT airdropped by @aellim99!

You definitely got to check out his collection if you have not. https://t.co/ZQyB1huhf0

@cdixon Soulbound gives it a personality since Soulbound is the name of a property of a non-transferable World of Warcraft item, the game which Vitalik used to play and influenced him to create Ethereum.

@squarerootfive @lovaniceth It's a sign. I see "LFG" in it

[CK | ckisme @ck_is_me]

Can't wait to see all other creators' works at @metajamasia.
It will be one hell of an IRL event. 🚀

An insight on how "simple" website can be so complex when it scales.
And no, it's not the tech that is complicated. It's human. It is always human factors that are the most complicated.

[Yishan @yishan]

I've now been asked multiple times for my take on Elon's offer for Twitter.

So fine, this is what I think about that. I will assume the takeover succeeds, and he takes Twitter private. (I have little knowledge/insight into how actual takeover battles work or play out)

That said, there are lots to be done by protocols in general to be stable and secure. With enough money in it, attackers are going to find exploits.

[CK | ckisme @ck_is_me]

Blockchain transparency is actually one of the main factor which critic's articles like "xx million is stolen from xx protocol today". This is a huge contrast to traditional opaque systems which frauds and exploits are discovered late and only by internal audits (if found)
