A major mistake I made in my undergrad is that I focused way too much on mathematical lens of computing - computability, decidability, asymptotic complexity etc. And too little on physical lens - energy/heat of state change, data locality, parallelism, computer architecture. The

Looking into it and happy to share!
Hey @gaoist & @FabricCrypto, can you please share the details of the 4090 machine? (CPU, chassis, memory)? Also, I am not familiar with the GPU implementations of the Binary Tower sumcheck; could you please open-source yours? I would like to reproduce your GPU $/sumcheck and

This is not a good take. Designing any chip that actually works is really hard Designing a programmable chip with the magical experience CUDA gives you is near impossible Designing it over multiple generations with near 100% consistency is a monster feat All due respect to TSMC
What's crazy when you read about Taiwan Semiconductors (TSMC) is you realize Nvidia are essentially dropshippers

Congrats @tkstanczak ! Looking forward to seeing what you build :)
I was asked and accepted to be a co-Executive Director (alongside Hsiao Wei) of Ethereum Foundation. Officially starting around 17th of March (pending paperwork). Please reach out via Telegram to @tkstanczak if you think we should talk / prefer async but a call also works

Another reason to work on TEEs!
Decentralized TEE Frontends can help address this by putting critical frontend components under the same release management as smart contract upgrades

Who cares about what chain “captures the value on the shitcoin market”? “The next billion users” is more than a catchphrase now— it’s coming. The apps are here. Let’s focus on that, not the circular economy we had in defi summer

There are a million things going on at the app layer that are more exciting than this flame war - payday loans on chain�� - decentralized on ramps… - TikTok data on chain… - permissionless AI agents… - incentivized training networks…
