Bad sci-fi books (yawn): Hyperion, Foundation, and Three Body Problem
Good sci-fi books (fun!): Dune, Red Rising, Project Hail Mary

Intel has one of the worst tickers ever—$INTC (how do you even pronounce that?), zero memes, and not even a Warpcast account. Meanwhile, $DEGEN has the best ticker, the best community, the best memes, and one of the biggest channels on Warpcast.
Intel is valued at $99B.
Do the math, nerds.

Anyway use fish and cursor? Or curator and not fish? I think the abbreviated path names confuse it
After a full month of working with an AI coding assistant i am *giddy* about how quickly one can prototype and build things.
Doing a good job still requires a lot of skill and expertise, but it’s a step change in the activation energy required to start ambitious ventures.

Shameful PR plug by @eulerlagrange.eth about his new movie coming up..."Fifty Shades of 🌈" (think shades + tangled but rainbow 🌈 hair)
Anyway... I do have to give accolades to @ted for the amazing acting. At first I was upset because I was hoping for another actress (twilight fans) however... watching the trailer she had me at "Sometimes I wonder if there’s something a little... twisted about me. Maybe it’s the years I’ve spent lost in my dreamy paperback heroes, tangled up in their wild promises and impossible passions. Or maybe, just maybe, I’ve spun my expectations into something too bright, too bold—like a kaleidoscope of rainbow strands I can’t quite unravel."

What would you classify the kind of pain allowed you to get 235,000 followers as?

One strange lesson I've learned as a founder is importance of distinguishing "good pain" from "dumb pain" – aka when to lean into hard things vs when to try something else.
Tier 0: run from all pain
Tier 1: ignore pain
Tier 2: embrace good pain, avoid dumb pain

Hearty recommendation for the the bissel little green hydrostream, works on almost anything
Elote + churro popsicle? Or too much
Ahhh yes. Remember the $DEGEN days? Just like yesterday. In fact it was yesterday. Also today
SoFi is gonna be sooooo pissed
Cracking an egg in starchy leftovers and frying them up in a wok works wonders, maybe add some soy or fish sauce:
🍳 Pan-asian (duh)
🍳 Ethiopian
🍳 Italian
🍳 Mexican
🍳 Sushi (+furikake)
Is there a cuisine this doesn’t work for 🤔?
Mmmm lasagna scramble:

Why doesn’t coinbase one work on base?
First time in 2.5 years i don’t feel guilty about hanging out with my friends on weeknight 🛋️😊
Excited to see how this goes! The beauty of SEZs and beauteous states and TAZs is that it lets us actually understand - what if?

When the Doom Music Kicks In
Experience DOOM in ZK: See how RISC Zero’s zkVM runs the iconic game, proving our tech’s power and versatility. A fun showcase of zero-knowledge proof potential.

Sometimes the warpcaster client says it didn't cast your cast but then it did and it gets recast like 12 times :(
It’s definitely a game changer but the game was changed a long time ago — tons of examples of how to use RISC Zero (the OG general propose zkvm) here: https://github.com/risc0/risc0/tree/main/examples

last night i used sp1 to create a program that generates a validity proof that a given number is prime or not without knowing rust or using any crypto
feels like a gamechanger to me. can't wait for these proofs to be snarked and verifiable in solidity
(when i figure out how to do u32 sqrt it's over for yall)

Farcaster is a market for features. What an amazing way to build an app and an ecosystem. Thanks @dwr.eth and all.

The eternal dilemma
I improvised this a while ago while I was thinking about what it meant to be relentlessy focused on the customer:

I made a new channel for people to post anything they've made, mint worthy or not. As a founder I've found I need a lot of outlets and it makes it easier to keep going if I know anyone might be reading / looking / listening.

You probably make stuff. Maybe other people should know about. Maybe this is the place to let them.

So my current name is @br1an, but there is an @briang and I feel bad stomping on that - I can switch to my ens @brianretford.eth (don't look at my NFTs they are for a future art project), but does this effect all the backlinks?
We can move in this direction now – just need to build Oauth2 into ethereum, or as an AVS.
“Sign in with Me”
ZK wrap N other OIDC providers, create a flexible smart contract, then present another OIDC service that is unstoppable, permissionless, and can be as complicated as needed!
Anyone building this?
