I’m Andrew, co-founder of Recall. Over the past few days I’ve been building Predict, a playground where anyone can: - propose skills we should measure in language models—live examp…

I really enjoyed this episode of Peter Attia's podcase: https://peterattiamd.com/keithflaherty2/ . They spend a lot of time breaking down the difficulty in cancer treatment, change…

I said curious not dismissive. When people don't communicate like you it doesn't mean their ideas are bad.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lskpNmUl8yQ "Dooooes radio ring a bell?" and the crowd all laughs.

Why stop at 2000 though? The internet is still full of terrible things today, many of which are the most visible, and most of which are happening because, money. https://www.youtub…

Just more concretely closing the loop back to what you said. You said Instead NFTs are seen as an investment vehicle — they will appreciate in price over time, just look at BAYC. T…

On your final point: really easy to raise money and the irony of centralized projects built on the stack. Again, probably true... but to an extent. Take a look at that Chris Burnis…

On your second argument, the rich get richer. Again, it's definitely true... across the entire economy. In most of the economy, there are pretty much two parties that own the organ…

Okay, I'll write back with three comments in case people want to sink their teeth into these responses distinctly :D Your first argument: NFTs are primarily successful because cryp…

You know that feeling when you see comment threads online and you are just like... _it's not worth it_. I think many of the good/honest/intellectually curious people inside crypto …

I've been to a few events lately that have used https://www.airmeet.com/ and achieved similar, in case others are looking.

I haven't seen anything big in WASM on Textile yet. It should be done for sure. We use Slack because it was there and worked when we needed something. Onboarding is easy, our chats…

That wouldn't be bad if done right! I think there are still "Firebase of IPFS" products yet to come. What we do that is a bit different is that we allow devs to claim some hosted r…

True! Go is our main language and a powerhouse for us, but we've not given it enough love in examples or docs. We'll fix it.

There is no chain. It uses a set of protocols that have no consensus. They run in the browser. Here is a relevant merged feature in the ThreadsDB library today, https://github.com/…

It's funny. Web2 got so many things right, but early Web3 often tried so hard to abandon it all that it made for a lot of unnecessary pains. We've tried to take a more balanced app…
