I’m thrilled to share that I will be joining the @UW_iSchool as an Assistant Professor in the Fall of 2023. I’m looking forward to getting to know my new colleagues and engaging with the stellar social data science community at @UW.

@natematias This is right. For completeness though, technically a hard fork can be used to purge on-chain data as well, but that requires node operator consensus and so it's the nuclear option (and has only been used for that purpose once in the history of Ethereum for instance).

Building a modern 100% compatible CPython implementation that's just 10% faster might have enormous cost/energy benefits and also be entirely unfundable because the savings are so dispersed. Shame...

A most beautiful thing: an artist in France fills holes in sidewalks with mosaics. He is known as the "paving surgeon" and has been "treating the wounds of urban streets since 2016."

According to the internet, I am now a supervillain. I will not be accepting any interview requests as I am spending the rest of the day on Zillow looking for a secret underground lair. Don't @ me or I may snap my fingers and eliminate half of the internet.

@shiraeis If you're doing it for yourself that's great, but if anyone is making you feel like you need to do it then be careful of potential burnout (speaking from experience)
