How AlphaZero learns chess: chess.com/news/view/how-… Computers' recent (last 20 years) dominance at chess could have been expected to dampen enthusiasm for the game. Instead, chess seems healthier than ever; people and computers work fluidly together.

Stripe Identity now helping companies like FTX with smoother KYC 🥳

Brett Harrison@BrettHarrison

We’ve recently overhauled our user onboarding process, and we’ve partnered with @stripe to bring their automated ID verification system to FTX. We're seeing greatly increased speed of KYC processing, higher rates of automated approvals, and a smoother UX for our customers. :-)

Stripe and crypto have grown up at the same time; we started writing code the year after the Bitcoin paper dropped. We’ve always kept an eye on things (e.g. bitcoin support 2013-2015) but last few years’ developments (L2s, new chains, stablecoins, DeFi) are particularly exciting.

The Sea Ranch Lodge is back open!

The Sea Ranch Lodge@SeaRanchLodge

The Sea Ranch represents a confluence of California’s best ideals: optimism, creativity, a reverence for nature, a willingness to do things differently, and a sensitivity to the past that guides a focus on the future. Thank you for the warm welcome back this weekend.

I also have lots of questions about the Waterford Greenway in particular. Who made it happen? How do you solve the holdout problem when assembling the land? Where is the best in-depth history of the project?

Walked the Waterford Greenway (Kilmacthomas-Dungarvan) yesterday and it is, like everyone says, brilliant. Spotlessly clean, artfully done (the tunnel!), dotted with hip restaurants and good coffee. Genuine question: how do we get more greenways in Ireland?
