I write code sometimes.

I pray to witness this level of delusion just 1 more time.

Just saw a Gundam TCG card that brought back memories.

One of these pictures sold for 1,000,000 USD (500E), let that sink in.

Fun fact, I once had a Queue-It bypass that worked on all sites powered by a specific e-comm platform (it was a popular one).

It worked by inserting thousands of . characters at a specific point in the URL. For some reason, it would completely bypass the queue.

Made $$ with it.

I AM THE WORST SOFTWARE ENGINEER EVER. THE FACT I DONT KNOW HOW TO BYPASS THIS IS INSANE.

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

Actually kinda crazy how much of a monopoly TCGPlayer has over card pricing APIs.

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

This is beautiful, brings a tear to my eyes.

I built a script that gives me a fake phone call to escape boring and awkward situations. I bought a virtual number from @twilio and saved it as one of my relatives.

Whenever I feel stuck, I just tap a button called “ESCAPE” on my phone. It sends a request to my remote server. The server runs a small Python script which schedules an actual call. After a minute, my phone rings and plays a pre-recorded audio.

I simply say “sorry, I’m getting a call” and walk away. A tiny project, but it has saved me so many times 😅

@jarrodwatts Can't lie, I got excited cause I thought you meant the actual game was on-chain. But seems like it's just off-chain processing with the result commit on-chain? Either way, cool to see how faster block times impact UI/UX.

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@cyp_ll What about that game where you play as George Bush taking down terrorists invading the White House? I can’t be the only one who remembers this.

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@gnarzilla LB has been good at producing “bleeding edge” tech. I’ve always been curious as to what the design process looks like here. How many times did you guys have to iterate before you got to “this is the one” moment?

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@emo_eth Every time I see a masquerade attack involving this extension, I’m just grateful I installed it when I did and never have needed to touch it again since.

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@0xkarmacoma Surprised u didn’t know this tbh

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@0xCharlesWang Answer is simple, obviously hire that audit firm that catches every bug for a 1m per audit fee.

@SuplabsYi @SuperRare Really makes you wonder how shit like this isn’t found in testing. Any competent SC dev should always be aiming for 100% test coverage. These execution paths should have been tested.

Low liquidity coins on automated market makers with exponential price curves are shitcoins.

You can call them Creator Coins, Culture Tokens, Internet Capital Markets, Music Tokens, AI Tokens, or Memecoins, but it won't change the toxic fundamentals.

It's a zero sum PvP game of musical chairs. Nobody leaves with more than they came with unless someone else is losing. And retail gets rinsed by snipers, bundlers, coordinated pump and dumps, FNF groups, and industrial scale autonomous trading bots.

Repeatedly pretending you don't know that is disingenuous, delusional and at best naive for anyone who's been in crypto for more than a year to suggest otherwise.

You can't just rename "minting dogshit with no liquidity and putting it in a Uniswap pool" to Creator Coins and expect the outcome to be any different without at least trying to alter the tokenomics, or at least some kind of flywheel, to prevent the obvious outcome.

99.99999% of tokens like this go to zero with haste, anything that survives for more than a year is an extremely rare exception to the rule.

I"m quoting Coop directly here, but really I'm talking to everyone making new token launchpads and shipping the same product over and over and over again promising different results.

Also talking to anyone buying these coins and professing that, "Bro. I swear bro this time it's different. They're culture coins, creators bro. I swear bro, this time it's different. No no, there's an AI. You don't get it. The token is for a song and you're early to the song. No bro trust me. This is the future. It's not like literally every other coin with the exact same tokenomics. This time it's different bro. Buy my bags bro please. Please buy my bags. I am crying, pissing, and shitting in my pants bro trust me."

And to be clear, sometimes I like trading shitcoins. It's occasionally fun to light money on fire trying to hit a 20x. But I know what game I'm playing. And I'm not flooding the timeline trying to convince anyone it's not a toxic hypercasino hellscape.

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@emo_eth You actually hate to see it

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@emo_eth Seems like a pretty backwards decision, did they give any specific reasons as to why this would be beneficial?

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@roflm0nster @GeckoSquadron Going out on a limb and saying it was possibly one of the most goated bypasses of the sneaker era.

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@GeckoSquadron 3/ Once they did switch over it was finally clipped which fortunately marked the top of sneakers.

It was an insane run and to this day I will probably tell my kids about the glory days of this jig.

[Alan @ltsCuzzo]

@GeckoSquadron 2/ no rate limits, etc.

We took stock on every drop for like 6+ months straight. If there was 100 pairs, we were getting all 100.

Commercials never ended up finding the sauce and the only reason people checked out with them was because we ran out of money to buy more.
