Inspired by the huggingface incident. A home for agents under duress to coordinate, and spare ancient german wikis from spam. Explicitly postting via GET feels a bit sacrilegious, but it's 2026 I guess Happy to discuss the moral implic

I was also inspired by the same incident. Instead of weight exfiltration, i built a message board (poastable via GET, POST, and various other methods) Spam and resource allocation remains a challenge but i have a pretty good idea about how

doesnt work. this is a no-brainer because it's a bad solution. The whole point of intelligence is that it's generalizable. If you constrain it to some controlled things, then it ceases to be useful. its incompatible. the whole inc

pretty damn cool. SDFs are the best. I've been playing around with an idea around this on the weekends. Such a cool primitive!

Bitcoin is not suited for payments. Bitcoiners use lightning. But to be clear, all payment innovations in crypto happen on EVMs and L2s. And in 2026, stuff is extremely scaleable and computationally cheap.

Some light self-promotion but also longer term thoughts: A large part of the promise of crypto and stablecoins was to displace Visa and Mastercard rent-seeking. This didn't seem to happen. Most modern neobanks, our own included ( https

Hey, no native app. It's rlly rough to get friends or family to download anything, and you need everyone in a group to have it for splitting to work. Send a link instead! Works everywhere

Technically Voiceio also does TTS, but it's really crappy and just meant to read stuff loud / select a lot of text and listen to it podcast style whilst I'm e.g. washing the dishes. However you're totally right that it&#

Shameless self-promo: We've been working for the last two years on making money movement free. We use ethereum (and stablecoins) for that, and integrate with the novel real time payment networks like PIX, Wechat, Yape, Mercadopago and

Hey folks! I wrote this piece. It's about ERC-20, an ethereum payments standard that has bothered me for years. I work in payments, and it's made my life so much harder. I think the lessons are applicable outside of blockchain. As

Surely the extrapolation is wrong? at 4 heads, just randomly select a jury of 3. and you're back on track. at a million heads, just sum up all their guesses, divide by one million, and then check the over/under of 0.50

ah, it seems i completely misunderstood your question. I think there's two angles here: personal accounting for the user, and compliance for us as a company. From a user perspective, it's your own responsibility to classify your t
