Pretty impressed with the level of effort that went into this. Web3 moves fast, but this 165 page magnum opus by Messari is today's single best snapshot of the entire space. If you understand everything in here, you are up to speed. messari.io/pdf/messari-re…

"Can you read this to me?" she says, but I said "be patient, darling".

"what nobody tells you about *written* documentation": keeping it up to date is also a full-time job. and not the easier one. Because coding is easy, naming variables harder, documenting that stuff? next sprint, once we hit that RC/version/OKR. Agree Addy Osmani? Gamified yet?

But is this not just human nature? Make a plan to do stuff, get distracted, act out of sync w/ your best self and the bar you and other should uphold you to? Did you read "the war of art"? Because i think it applies here. Amateur (puts heart in) vs Pro (gets money). Inner work ♡

huge fan, but when are you bringing a female guest on to talk things through? And who would it be?

What is 2FA?

"software is eating the world", they said. Now, software development terms and methods are entering daily politics. When are they moving to a fully agile release cycle?

South Korea's local governments are deploying around 7,000 AI-robot dolls to seniors and dementia patients. The $1,800 robot doll by Hyodal can hold full conversations to tackle loneliness and remind users to take medication. Dystopian, yes, but the data is fascinating: 1.

Mustafa Suleyman This is epic: 1. Process: From over 32 million candidates AI narrowed it down to 23 promising materials .. in just 80 hours 🤯 2. Material: The researchers focused on a solid electrolyte .. which is safer and more efficient than the liquid electrolytes used in standard

This is the first demo of any agent, leave alone coding, that seems to cross the threshold of what is human level and works reliably. It also tells us what is possible by combining LLMs and tree search algorithms: you want systems that can try plans, look at results, replan, and

Naval once asked what would happen if everyone on Earth was a software engineer. He highlighted the various benefits that would occur as a consequence and I can’t help but think in a very real sense, his hypothetical question is coming true.

Language models naturally generate outputs towards the "center" of the data distribution they are trained on, neglecting rare/tail perspectives. This paper argues that while useful, overreliance on recursive AI systems could lead to a "knowledge collapse" phenomenon where public

This is big. Scientists have identified the cells in the brainstem that sense immune cues from the body and act as "master regulators" of the body’s inflammatory response. "The discovery is akin to a black-swan event. It's a whole layer of biology we haven’t even anticipated”

THE NETWORK SCHOOL We got an island. That’s right. Through the power of Bitcoin, we now have a beautiful island near Singapore where we’re building the Network School. We’re starting with a 90-day popup that runs from Sep 23 to Dec 23, right after the Network State Conference.
