If Ethereum goes 100% ZK it makes most sense to treat the provers like miners and pay them issuance. That was my original thesis for ZK Hardware and Ethereum is the best place for this to happen as it has deep liquidity and valuable issuance vs any new ZK L1.

Time series forecasting models often fail due to a deep misunderstanding of both the theory and implementation, whether traditional or ML-based. Just got Valeriy M., PhD, MBA, CQF’s book and can’t wait to dive in! 🔍

So someone contacts you on LinkedIn with a promising job opportunity. Sounds nice, innit? They seem legit (after checking them for 1 min) and after some short convo they send you a GitHub repo with a simple Next.js "recruiting task". You clone it, run it… and 10 mins later, your

just came across github.com/iritkatriel/co… by Irit Katriel. An excellent deep dive into the CPython compilation pipeline internals in her talk: youtube.com/watch?v=DfXhyw… covering new optimizations under the hood 🐍

this happens because ADHD is strongly correlated with a secondary condition called GIL (a "global interpreter lock"), which forces sufferers to only focus on one thing at a time.

When you make a Bank ACH transaction, it’s literally just an SFTP upload. Sent as a NACHA file, it's 940 bytes of ASCII text. Bank-to-Bank transactions cost ~0.2 cents. As long as it travels via encrypted tunnel; it’s compliant! Here’s how the quirky system works:

Someone forgot to revoke approvals for Multichain Router V4, resulting in a 401 ETH instant hack by MEV bots. They first swapped 200ETH for WETH, which got immediately extracted. Then, they tested 1ETH and got extracted. Finally, they tried 200ETH and got extracted again.

Huge computer science result: A Tsinghua professor JUST discovered the fastest shortest path algorithm for graphs in 40yrs. This improves on Turing award winner Tarjan’s O(m + nlogn) with Dijkstra’s, something every Computer Science student learns in college.

I wrote a short post on learning the fundamentals of distributed systems, with a few suggested resources to read and a few suggested projects to try.

"Systems performance is an important skill for all computer users, whether you're trying to understand why your laptop is slow or optimizing the performance of a large-scale compute environment." A must-have book.
