Building my collection
Whenever I come back to India, it takes a little to adjust to how everything is time shifted by +2-3 hours.

Lunch is often close to 2pm, dinner isn't until at least 8pm and bed time is often close to midnight.

I wonder why some cultures lean early vs. late.
We've been working on improving our spam detection.

A big source of alpha has been taking algos used to rank content on the web and modifying them to work in Farcaster-space.

@akshaan and @notawizard collaborated to add:
- PageRank
- Hyperlink Induced Topic Search
- Louvain Clustering

Any boost of this Snapchain thread on X is appreciated!

Snapchain is getting close to an alpha release!

Snapchain is a new blockchain-like system that stores your casts, reactions and follows and keeps them in sync between apps.

It's designed to be faster and scale better than the current hub network.
