ERC-8153 Facet-Based Diamonds is a great new smart contract standard for modular smart contract development and architecture. Its status just changed from Draft to Review. https://t.co/6qWxLyESHN

so you wanna get started in math?

here’s how to actually do it. no fancy roadmap, no expensive courses. just start from the fundamentals.

• arithmetic → fractions, ratios, percentages, exponents. get comfortable manipulating numbers before anything else.
• algebra → equations, functions, variables. this is where you start thinking in relationships instead of numbers.
• geometry & trigonometry → shapes, angles, vectors, sine, cosine. learn how mathematics describes space and motion.
• calculus → limits, derivatives, integrals. understand how things change and accumulate over time.
• linear algebra → vectors, matrices, transformations. the foundation of robotics, computer graphics, and machine learning.
• probability & statistics → uncertainty, distributions, inference. learn how to reason when you don’t have complete information.

but here’s the part most people get wrong.

you don’t learn math by watching someone else solve problems.
you learn by solving them yourself.

pick one textbook. start from the chapter you actually understand. solve problems with a pen and paper. when you get stuck, go back and fix the missing prerequisite.
don’t memorize formulas. derive them. understand why they work. try changing the assumptions and see what breaks.

and most importantly, connect what you learn to the real world.

use calculus to model motion. use linear algebra to rotate a 3d object. use probability to understand uncertainty.
math is not a spectator sport.

the goal isn’t to become someone who knows a thousand formulas.
it’s to become someone who can approach an unfamiliar problem, break it down, and reason their way through it.

$OG recognize OG so @aavegotchi nfts get to log in https://t.co/3zSaikDd4o aswell!

For those who don't know, @frenpetonbase is built on top of EIP-2535 Diamonds, which was basically invented originally by @mudgen and shipped into Aavegotchi's core structure, so that's as og as it gets!

[Nick Mudge 💎 @mudgen]

@Musashi13_DeCo @chad_gotchi @aavegotchi @frenpetonbase @PixelcraftStuds Thanks.

[Compose @ComposeDiamonds]

We’re now building on a strong foundation.

Go read the finalized ERC-8153 standard.

Huge thanks to @mudgen for this incredible piece of architectural work.

[Nick Mudge 💎 @mudgen]

The new diamond smart contract standard ERC-8153 Facet-Based Diamonds is final! https://t.co/6qWxLyESHN

[Nick Mudge 💎 @mudgen]

There are no plans to make any major changes to the standard.

[Nick Mudge 💎 @mudgen]

I have been thinking of making a major change to ERC-8153 Facet-Based Diamonds. See my comment about it here: https://t.co/i1iHVadPMx

[Nick Mudge 💎 @mudgen]

The project https://t.co/7XYjstd0lf is using this standard.

Omarchy is blowing up. I've never been involved with anything in my career that has grown this fast. With Ruby on Rails, we had years to build solid institutions, teams, and relationships. With Omarchy, we've been forced to figure it all out in twelve days. It's exhausting, but also incredibly exciting.

It was never sustainable with just Ryan and me running everything. That's how it was, more or less, up until Quattro. Lots of other contributors, but all the responsibility was on us to make sure the ship stayed afloat, the servers didn't crash, and fixes got pushed out quickly.

Now it's time to build a proper institution. Durable, resilient, and competent. That's what we're doing here on Basecamp now. I'm spinning up teams for every facet of responsible distro management, and I'm getting an absolute outpouring of interest for all of them. Everyone wants to be part of this. We're winning hearts, minds, and volunteers at an astounding rate. Great! We need all of it to succeed.

Because make no mistake: There are many people who'd love to see this rocket blow up before it reaches the moon. Aggrieved Linux users who don't like the sudden attention their exclusive hobby has received. Competing Linux distributions that are seeing our numbers explode. Mac stans who've sunk their identity into an apple. And, of course, any of the haters I've picked up in my quarter-century career speaking bluntly on the internet.

They're not going to succeed. Because we've already become unstoppable. There's too much momentum, too much money, and too much support now backing this effort. We're living the Mandate From Heaven meme at the moment. And we are here to fulfill the prophecy: The Year of Linux on the Desktop!

That has been a joke for two decades. But by the end of the year, nobody at Apple or Microsoft is going to be laughing. They're going to be scrambling. Because neither of these proud organizations currently has any method to counter the speed, vision, or ambition with which we're going to accelerate into the future of personal computing.

This is the moment. This is the opening. This is our chance.

For thirty years, we've been subject to one OS overlord or another. Dictating how we compute. Choking off competitors through platform malfeasance. Tollboothing the distribution. That ends now. Because Linux is going to win. And Linux is free. As in beer, speech, and source.

But just because it's inevitable doesn't mean it's going to be easy. We have a lot of work in front of us if we actually want to make our mark. But there's never been a better time for this kind of delusional ambition. The age of agents is the unlocking factor. It sounds like a LinkedIn slogan, but it's true. Where the application of tokens goes, the innovation follows.

We can fix everything.

Let's do it together.

Let's go.

This is what I sent to the dozens of new volunteers who've signed up for teams within the new Omarchy organization yesterday. But we might as well broadcast our mission and intentions to the world too.

[Nick Mudge 💎 @mudgen]

hmm... I have two other friends trying out Omarchy recently that were using window before. I have been using Linux desktops, various distributions, for a long time. I like it. I don't see myself going back to windows.
