Truth > Reality > Behavior > Justice > Beauty Is my mental model of how the world works Once we know what is true, that shapes our reality, which in turn influences our behavior Once we know what right behavior is, we can achieve justice. Which finally let's us see beauty

I changed my mind recently on whether private foundations should publicly reveal the specific funding amounts they give grantees I now believe that putting this information up publicly distorts the market in 2 ways; 1. Anchoring effect: Other applicants see how much their peers

If we take every statement here at face value then everyone involved is telling the truth. There is no contradiction making a lie. Peter says there was a plan to spin out geth (this is not "removing geth" it is making it independent like other client teams). They offered him $5M

A flaw with modern democracy is insufficient separation b/w executive & legislature branch It's the same incentive structure (votes) and orgs (political parties) for both branches In a market state democracy, the richest person (or having most DAO tokens) heads the executive

You're not supposed to be "employed" or "unemployed" you're supposed to exist in a constant grey area where you sort of vaguely worry about money sometimes and sometimes you have these minor windfalls that enable you not to think about it for awhile

It is not L2s' responsibility to talk about the Ethereum mainnet. It is the Ethereum mainnet builders' responsibility to encourage people to talk about L2s on Ethereum. Keep building the best network, and people will become increasingly proud to be part of it.

the governance problem in web3 can be divided into 2 1. how do you allocate funding? 2. how do you decide on product changes? both need a formalized process since they are zero sum, either a change is approved or not & funding to one group means less funding for others

the 2 main issues with Deep Funding 1. only software dependencies included, although Aave recruited core team members ETHGlobal they wouldn't be in the graph 2. some open source repos require upfront work but then exist on their own, why channel continous funds to them?
