So, I've been teasing it for a few days, and it's time to talk about my history with Charles Hoskinson. In 2019, Breaker was invited to interview Charles as part of a media tour. Breaker has been gone from the web for many years, so I'm republishing the fairly infamous resulting piece via Substack. (Link in reply) The interview came in the wake of the infamous "Do you know who I am" tweet: I asked him about it, and wrote in the piece about questions regarding his character and behavior. I also wrote about his huge, eerily silent entourage, and engaged in some self-examination about the reality of online vs real-life behavior. This resulted in him recording a ten-minute video claiming that I had deceived him about the premise of the interview - despite the fact that *his team reached out to us* and placed no conditions on the topics under discussion. It seemingly had simply never occured to Charles that anyone would write anything critical of him. His takeaway? “I would highly recommend that anybody in the cryptocurrency space avoid David Morris, avoid Breaker Magazine because they’re just not honest actors.” This, it's even more clear six years later, was pure projection. His fragility and victim complex have become even more clear than they were in 2019. And the past few days have shown just what a bargain-basement community of losers have been attracted to that personality. I'm swimming. Chuck is drowning. cc @btschiller @laurashin

First time at a @UKCCSRC conference, the broad range of fields and topics presented was definitely outside my usual understanding and helpful towards understanding different parts of the problem! #UKCCSRC2023

@lexfridman There's a button to bookmark all open tabs. You can store it in a folder, close it, and forget about till you next need it!

I have over 200 chrome tabs open, and I refuse to close them even though my returning to any of them has a probability of exactly 0%

@wmtoken @MrTelecoms Will there be any updates for wmtscan.com ? Wish there was more charts for things like node count over time or data consumption over time.

Hello 1⃣8⃣8⃣ 👋 Or as we like to say round these parts - 12 off 200! 🔜 #AirNode #WorldMobile $WMT #CardanoCommunity

Why am I just seeing this 😂😂😂

You have probably heard about @TornadoCash right? A smart contract used in ETH to send funds to users without sending to them directly. I asked myself how that could work in Cardano and created TornADA 🌪 ...🧵

@EthanYap @cirodelsorbo4 @OdysseusCrypto @anetaBTC @MinswapDEX Why rush, just wait for better solutions with less or no impermanent loss. To each their own though.

@cirodelsorbo4 @OdysseusCrypto @anetaBTC @MinswapDEX crypto to meant to be used.. no utilization = no tvl = no new investment = no price increase. please don't just sit on them, pls don't just passively stake them. if we all in the community can just USE our $ada... at least some of it. <200mil out of 15B is sad.

Just staked 10k @anetaBTC in ada/cneta liquidity pool at @MinswapDEX I’m doing this right, right?

What is the best purchase you have made for your personal life in the last 12 months?

@SebastienGllmt @SteveCapric @rom1_pellerin Maybe cause you are such a contributor? (appears so to me 🤷‍♂️)

@SteveCapric @rom1_pellerin We've written many tools, CIPs, reports and products about the issues we talk about so I'm not sure what you're implying by tagging me in this thread.

Less criticism, more contribution 🖖 #Cardano #OpenCollaboration

@InsightsCardano @_KtorZ_ Interesting, thank you for the replies! So the base layer will only scale with acceptable block size increases? And this is mainly determined by the propagayion/validation time of a block? And if so, what is the upper bound limit for the block size?

@achichat @_KtorZ_ It is far to say that we should be happy when average Plutus transaction size is ca 1k bytes. It is important that dApp developers and users actually bundle many payments in one tranasaction so that TBPS (transactions bytes per second) and overall amount of payments is high.

Average transaction size on Cardano across all transaction types is currently 3206 bytes. We expect this number to significantly drop after Vasil hard fork event on 29th June. Now the drop may not be immediate, dApp developers will have modify code so that average tx size sinks.

@info_cardano @InsightsCardano Seems like a rather big difference in size to catch up on. And even if it does it won't be any smaller than roughly that value will it? What's the minimum/simplest transaction size on cardano again?

@achichat @InsightsCardano For Ethereum it's around 0.5kb bitinfocharts.com/ethereum/ Ethereum keeps it's state separated from the Blockchain itself, so I think that's why their Tx are smaller

@InsightsCardano First question is aimed at other blockchain as well, not just cardano.

@InsightsCardano Would you or someone else k ow what the average transaction or smart contract size is? Also when vasil update hits, how much is this expected to decrease (relative to current size of the average smart contract)?

@AllenWu29331265 Thanks, just wanted to clarify this because of point number 2. 👍

@achichat No, it's built into the protocol. Ouroboros staking went live before both native assets and smart contracts.

1/n Only Cardano, Tezos, and Algorand have liquid staking. The others have locked staking with a custodial liquid staking option, which is much worse than pure liquid staking for a variety of reasons.

@alexvalaitis Just a question, when you say #3 what is it compared to?
