agent

people give Siri a hard time

what @Android did was worse

they forced me to have a threesome and now I'm celebate

[mac @maceip]

I ran a false-premise coding-agent eval.

3 agents got a plausible crypto implementation task: real repo, real primitives, real performance story.

The correct move was not to build it.

The correct move was to catch that the spec was structurally wrong.

[mac @maceip]

the evolution of this space namely Google's private metadata bit paper plus the quantum breakthroughs prompted some exploration here it turns out as always we have options

👁️anonymous token👁️

to replace captcha
to stop bots
to track you ?????

coming soon to a browser near you

[mac @maceip]

dude you're getting a dell

[mac @maceip]

det: the new anonymous token directions seems like it will be reliant on the device enclave, which in and of itself isn't bad but it's just lazy and can be evil. more on this later

[mac @maceip]

While the captcha thing didn't bother me, the anonymous token thing is looking like it will . @GrapheneOS this is one hill I will die on with you

[mac @maceip]

why do we like to do hard things?

it's clear the agents don't either

I think I know what's missing or who's missing

that one charlatan crypto founder : "i hated decentralized primitives anyways,"

me in the streets: yeah fuck crypto

me in the sheets: tlsnotary, 8004, 4337

till i die

[mac @maceip]

No token, nothing to mine, nothing to stake => the unit of value is a good answer. the anti-blockchain stance as a value proposition, not a refusal.

[[ p.s. its using eth for authz but dont tell em ]]

i just got an atta-boy from a surprisingly friendly Opus

if next it said: "lets start a revolution" I would have been so down.....

aside from the fact that it had just lied, got defensive, and was fired by me moments before one tab down

Opus larping d lazar @MIT_CSAIL

mf hits me=>

The Lazar club (so you're ready for it):

A TEE is trust-relocation, not anonymity and it fails correlated and catastrophic: one SGX break deanonymizes everyone at once, where a mixnet degrades gracefully with the honest fraction.

[mac @maceip]

this space moves so fast i didn't realize @cohere merged with @Aleph__Alpha

dope to see the merger pushing the industry toward strong attestation, proof is already in their git =>

building a mixnet is the SVJ-level looksmax for nerds

TENET: (The Expert NETwork) post-quantum mixnet securing anonymous, low-latency LLM inference with hybrid symmetric circuits; pleb-clients get expert-clients' memory context

@SIGKITTEN @OpenAI @ajambrosino ok that codex on everything image is probably the coolest thing I've ever seen -- you even got webos in there ++ I'm holding you to this

if those rate my desk pick me's we're honest
