I'm not sure everyone in a country "knowing" to drive on the same side of the road is an example of a Schelling point -- drivers are trained to do this. Also not sure if fads, like "everyone orders a flat white", ar

Great game. I'm very impressed that a 9 year old made this. A few suggestions: 1. Take input on the page rather than through a prompt. Current implementation breaks immersion. 2. I'd like there to be some time pressure. This can b

There is no difference between mathematics and code. Certainly via a slippery slope argument there is no difference between mathematics and code. I think we are at a point where we just have such different world views that we are unable to

If I were a money launderer, I would take the libre Tornado Cash smart contracts, the libre Tornado Cash zk circuits, and the source-available Tornado Cash relayer, and run the whole thing myself. I would pay someone to operate relayers usi

How can conceiving of such a system and building it be a crime? It's like labelling thought a crime. I would accept that operating such a system is indefensible. But it's not as if the creator of Tornado Cash was solely maintain

Tornado Cash doesn't maintain accounts for those users. They are using Ethereum accounts created completely independently of Tornado Cash. The contracts are permissionless. Any Ethereum account can call the "deposit" function

Tornado Cash is permissionless. Any data the creator of Tornado Cash could hand over, the government would already have because Ethereum and EVM-based blockchains are public by default. The only service being run is a web client and relayer

Very good point. One thing to add - in my experience, you need to spend money to go from merely superlinear to (locally) exponential. This is the original reason that VCs exist. If you go to an intelligent decisionmaker at a VC firm with pr

The reason I don't use the world exponential, is that superlinear growth in a product is generally not exponential. It is usually at best quadratic because there is some kind of network effect at play - the number of edges in a complet

They do - they just have to have had larger successes. "Founding X" doesn't count for shit. Being part of a team that built a hugely successful product teaches you a lot - it teaches you about the counterintuitive dynamics of
