insane thing to post when you completely forgot about Aave for four years while you were selling $AAVE tokens to build a "social network". Only started to show up to work again when it completely failed and you had nothing better to do
You were mostly sleeping at the time you were in Aave. The community had to chase to you constantly, mismatched parameters, faulty AIPs (causing unnecessary liquidations). Sleepy Gauntlet.

Bear market crypto founders are like "I'm Jeff and I'm leveraging my experience at JPM to launch compliance.xyz"
Bull market hits and you are gonna see a lot of the same guys on here like "I'm Waifu Harkonnen and I'm the Head Retard in Charge at goon.finance"

stealth startups are for people who can't ship. if you ship, then it doesn't matter if people know what you're building, you'll beat them to market and win. weak as hell move to be scared that someone is going to steal your *idea* and beat you, disqualifying founder behavior imho

Protocols that fork should "kick up" to the protocol they fork. Like if you fork Yearn, allocate 20% of your tokens to the YFI multisig. I think CREAM did this for COMP. It's the least you could do, and helpful to not totally piss off people working on achieving similar goals

So Microsoft had a plan 10 years ago to create a bunch of special purpose keyboards like this. It was a pretty cool idea - you buy a tablet, and then there are a ton of custom keyboards you can hot swap for specific activities.
They are selling for pennies now on eBay but they were pretty cool

Daily trading volume of FTT is about $2mm according to Coingecko. $78mm of FTT blows through the order book a couple dozen times. Any substantial drop in price will create a liquidation cascade and the chance of shortfall is substantial.

When most people build a product, they ask,
"How big is the market?" Normally, it's not a question of _if_ you can answer that question, but _how_. Not in crypto - we dug in the trenches to size the market for crypto infrastructure so you don't have to

people in crypto are always saying 'this is not financial advice'. im here to explicitly give you financial advice today. buy an old truck. early 90s ford f150 xlt super cab. late 80s chevy squarebody . you wont make money on it, but you'll be happier... the way the sun reflects off the chrome bumpers... the sturdy kerplunk of the door closing... alan jackson on the cassette player. you'll see god brother. you'll feel him too

Wanted to announce a project I have been working on with a few friends - @ShaperResearch. Over the past few years, I have become more interested in health and have found that it's really hard to keep up with all of the latest advances as new research comes out. I have been working with two friends, an MIT PhD and WashU MD, to review new research and understand it. As we have met more people who are trying to do the same, we decided to share what we've found. We've built some cool infrastructure to track new papers published on PubMed and scan for the most relevant ones. We're sharing a new newsletter every couple weeks. The first one was on microplastics, and we just published our second today on energy drinks. Follow us on Twitter or subscribe to our Substack (it's free) shaperhealth.substack.com/

guys, dont worry.

A lot of randos have been asking me about ADA, and I'm a little tempted to tell them to buy a little. It's important to get rekt when you get into crypto - it's the only way to understand the risk! Might as well get it out of the way

hadn't talked to a friend in a while so I sent him a text that was like "i love you brother" and then i realized it sounded a bit suss to get that message totally out of the blue, so i folllowed up with "(not gonna kill myself or anything)" which upon reflection, did NOT help

thanks to everyone who voted - excited to run this back! Arbitrum is one of the most important ecosystems in DeFi and I am happy to be able to support here

Having already served 1 year on the Arbitrum Security Council, this is a reappointment for John.

Traders can't just go wildly long ...cars for example. You would have to go short Nikola to go long Tesla. So it seems quite a few stocks that were considered "trash" all ripped at about the same time.

This is dope, but it's inherently broken because it forces DAO members to vote on each move. This is a bad way to do things in a DAO. The DAO should just hire a chess player. Why should everyone in the DAO learn chess? Very inefficient for a firm to operate like this
On Friday, @_Dave__White_ tweeted about DAO vs. DAO chess—a way to test effective governance mechanisms through games of Chess.
This weekend, I hacked together daochess.org—a way for tokenized communities to compete in Chess.
Which DAOs want to play first?
