Are there any libp2p live metrics dashboards?
E.g. total node size, number of unique namespaces, performance metrics, etc.

There are things that don't feel like they can be linearly "learned".
I only have two experiences with such things: Either I don't get them at all, or I take them for granted. There was no in-between "aha" moment.
EVM storage slots was such a thing for me. What else felt this way for you?

Your programmer friend comes to you and says "okay I'm ready to be crypto-pilled", they got a long trip coming up to listen to things, what audiobook/podcasts do you send them?
Advancement of cryptocurrencies has challenged our beliefs around economics and roles of the state beyond our comfort.
Advancement of AI will challenge our beliefs around human intelligence beyond comfort.
Advancement of "uploading our mind" will challenge our beliefs around consciousness continuity beyond comfort.

I'm my own x10 engineer when I'm getting good sleep.
Great sleep, 8.5-9 hours every night: Peak cognitive performance. Coffee does nothing for me.
1 day of bad sleep (interrupted or less than <8 hours): Mild deficit but tolerable, can push through.
3 days: Lossy retention (can't replay the last few minutes continuously), having trouble finding the right words, reduced impulse control and willpower, reduced ability to focus. More stuttering. All very noticeable and annoying. Coffee gives me a small boost for a couple hours, but no where near peak. Takes 1-2 good days to get back to peak.
7 days+: Starting to seem normal again, but objective measurements are still the same as around 3 days. Sudoku puzzles take about twice as long as 0 days. Takes a few days to get back to peak.
Months: Forget what it's like to be at peak performance. Probably could live my entire life here without realizing that I'm barely awake. I suspect a lot of people live here. Can take weeks to get back to peak.

How long before someone wins a Nobel prize for something in crypto?
That's how early we are. 🫠
(For what? A new kind of hardness, a constructed physics? Or some indirect contribution like the AI ones?)

@dwr.eth is this a bug? I tried posting in my home timeline, but looks like it's getting posted into a channel that I'm not a member of even though I don't see any indicator of it being posted in a channel? https://warpcast.com/shazow.eth/0x05ec2202
Also not showing up in my profile or anywhere else as far as I can tell

@dwr.eth web warpcast bug: Search bar in the top-right no longer searches channels, only users.
Gambling is treated as taboo in school, all but outlawed. Is there a world where fewer people make devastating risky decisions in adulthood because we better acclimate and educate our youth via gambling in safer and controlled environments?
Not to mention including any kind of financial literacy at all.

Can you guess when I broke my foot?
Remarkable how steady the recovery has been.

Just released WhatsABI v0.15: https://github.com/shazow/whatsabi/releases
Improved using autoload to just resolve proxies and getting full verified contract metadata when available.
Fun fact: Etherscan returns proxy info for verified contracts, but Sourcify does not... yet. Maybe Sourcify should use WhatsABI to provide this in their API... 🤔🤔🤔👀👀👀

This is my hobby. Anytime someone implies that taxes are higher elsewhere, to actually check whether this is true (rarely meaningfully true) and also check how taxes scale across income (higher marginal taxes for higher income is good is lower income have lower marginal taxes!)
Showerthought: Is there an governance model that embraces both individualism and collectivism?
What about a rule like this: The more possible negative externalities a venture has, the more it has to be collectively owned. A venture that has no negative externalities, or produces positive externalities, can be structured however the owner wants.
Want to run an eco-friendly self-sustaining company that gives back to the community? A tiny bit of of collective ownership via taxation for use of public infrastructure.
Want to run a chemical processing business with toxic byproducts? Must be majority collectively owned (split across the local community and the broader governing bodies?).
I want to imagine a world where we can have happy libertarians living as close to self-sovereign as possible, and also tech giants whose decisions shape the nature of society where the society has a real voice and exposure to upside too.

Thought experiment: We intercept an alien probe. It seems broken, but we somehow manage to extract the digital storage contents of it and it's a giant matrix of floats—an AI model?
Knowing nothing else about it, would we be able to figure out how to interact with it? How would we approach it?

@jessepollak Got to go to one of the acceptusdc cafes in Toronto, and found out it only works with Coinbase Wallet? No Daimo, no Rainbow? 😭
Temporary oversight I hope?
