People that are skeptical of the waymo experience because [expensive, slower, unsafe, weird] have underdeveloped anterior lateral prefrontal cortexs.
Going back pretty far in the stack this weekend, and reading the first Multikey FHE paper.
Main problem statement is outsourced, private, storage and computation of weak clients that are sporadicly online. Can’t really use classic MPC protocols since they assume weak, non-interacting clients.
hey propose Multikey FHE. Server computes f on subset of clients S chosen “on the fly” that may be offline.
There is a lot more recent research that removes the assumption of hard problems over ideal latices and adds distributed decryption, but it's a fantastic paper to start going down the rabbit hole.

I'm thrilled to announce my first investment at Haun Ventures: leading the $55M Series A for @chaos_labs.
Onchain Finance has shown remarkable resilience during high volatility periods, in large part due to critical risk parameter choices by protocols.
Despite these achievements, three key challenges impede DeFi protocol maturity:
- Lack of actionable onchain risk information
- Low frequency of onchain risk data updates
- Inefficient processes for updating smart contract parameters
Chaos Labs' Risk Oracles are designed to address these challenges, delivering high-granularity, real-time risk parameters onchain.
I couldn’t be more excited to work closely with Omer Goldberg and the team on bringing his vision to life.

@dor your pfp looks like SBF
Such a cool product!
It is amazing to feel the political tail winds propelling the crypto industry forward in the 🇺🇸, but a reminder: Bitcoin does not need friendly politicians, or even regulators, to succeed.
I haven’t had coffee for a week. AMA
Getting a content subscription means consuming the purchased content as much as buying a book means you'll read it.
People don't pay for subscriptions solely to consume content. A big portion of it is self-identity: "I'm the type of person that subscribes to the Economist". This is one of the biggest problems of exclusive use of micropayments for content.
Pro-tip: read three books at a time, one business, one technical, one fiction. This way you always have something that matches your current reading mood and environment.
What a great setup for a launch party.
I’m reading Debt: The first 5,000 Years, but at this rate I would need to live twice as many years to be able to finish it. 😅
Humans are generally poor at predicting their future emotional states, a concept known as "affective forecasting." We're bad at estimating how we'll feel in the future. If you're deciding which career to pursue or which job to take, ask someone who already has taken it.
Europe's venture ecosystem struggles with commercialization and a lack of experienced big tech mentors. This leaves a gap in commercial savvy among founders, especially in the market that matters most: the US.
If you can't sell your vision, close deals, or persuade others to join the journey, you might be in the wrong industry. This applies to all industries.
Only after being a parent do I realize that parenting and management make use of the same exact skill-set.
Reading random content on the internet is like allowing remote code execution inside of your brain. Whatever you're reading will reinforce neural pathways and through mere exposure effect make it familiar. Curate your information sources.
Tokens have a super-power and a super-weakness. The super power: we have a playbook to overcome the cold-start problem. The super weakness: it makes it extremely hard to judge PMF from the metrics alone.
Ok guys, hear me out: what if we moved EthCC to Lisbon instead?
Get in the way of fantastic founders trying to build legitimate businesses for long enough, and you will get single-issue voters with large check-books.
If you’re a European tech founder and are starting a product to sell to your local market, don’t. Your first market should be the US. Act like it.
