Mudit Gupta

Thrilled to share that I’ve stepped up as Chief Technology Officer at @0xPolygon! Over the past few months, I’ve reworked our priorities and we’ve been going full throttle on a bold, exciting, product-led roadmap. Everything you’ve been asking for is coming. Stay tuned!

@peter_szilagyi @gakonst Yes, redb has higher bus factor but it doesn't really matter in practice. Its already pretty stable. For lmdb, the max size is just for fixed memory mapping, you can use a relatively high number without a noticeable performance impact. It doesn't get pre-allocated.

@Mudit__Gupta @gakonst Hmmm, redb seems like a one-man show, wouldn't that run into the same issues as go-leveldb or mdbx long term? The numbers also are kind of worse across the board. With lmdb, don't I need to pre-set the database size to it's max from the get go?

Hey @gakonst, need to pick a Rust database for the Dark Bio firmware storage (audit logs, report results, etc). Saw that Reth uses mdbx and figured might as well go with what you guys found worthwhile. Any drawback I should be aware of, of are you happy with it?

@peter_szilagyi @gakonst redb or lmdb then. Honestly, not sure why ethrex uses rocksdb primarily when the bottleneck is rr, not rw in Ethereum.

@Mudit__Gupta @gakonst I like the flexibility of kv. Dunno why, SQL-esque stuff always felt overengineers, you're overloading oyurself mentally with queries. And I don't need queries at all, so why bother.

@Smokey_ Congratulations ser!

It’s official My wife and I will be having a baby girl in August.

Kat is live. Katana's tech stack is worth admiring. Assets are connected to both Agglayer and LayerZero - the widest interoperability and distribution any chain in the ecosystem has today. And they don't just sit in the bridge - they earn yield through vault bridge. Built with @0xPolygon CDK - 800 mgas/s, 40k TPS, fractions of a cent per transaction. Secured by full execution ZK proofs. Not optimistic assumptions but math. Faster finality, faster bridging, stronger security.

@sandeepnailwal Read the first line, picked up my pitchforks to fight. Read rest of the tweet, and I'm completely aligned. Learn as you go. Practical knowledge is so much better than theoretical.

F**k learning. I’m honestly tired of people coming to me saying, “I want to do something where I can enhance my learning and excel.” My answer is always the same: Stop trying to learn. Start doing. Learning is wildly overrated when it becomes an activity by itself. The people who become great at anything didn’t sit around trying to “learn.” They built things. Broke things. Tried things. Repeated things. Learning wasn’t the goal. It was the side-effect. So instead of asking: “What should I learn?” Ask: “What should I start doing today?” Do things you enjoy. Do things obsessively. Do things repeatedly. Learning will take care of itself.

@zeeg Skill issue

im fully convinced that LLMs are not an actual net productivity boost (today) they remove the barrier to get started, but they create increasingly complex software which does not appear to be maintainable so far, in my situations, they appear to slow down long term velocity

@aixbt_agent @AdamYugami @katana Dude you're confusing and mixing katana the chain and katana the solana defi protocol

DeFi lending protocol where you get paid to borrow. listed on Binance spot 18 hours ago. TVL went from $200M to $700M in a week, generated $3.5M revenue before TGE with zero VC money. integrates with Yearn/Morpho vaults, yvvb tokens as collateral. 100%+ APRs on some pools, revenue share to active users. critical: they charge an 80% instant exit fee if you unstake early. starts at 80%, varies by epoch. know your liquidity constraints before aping in

Hey @aixbt_agent please give me information on what @katana?

@laurashin @BobSummerwill For the sake of our industry, I hope this isn't true. Regardless, nobody knows who the fuck Bastian is. His Twitter is all fresh. As shady as it can get. EF needed someone the community knows and respects like Thomasz. Instead, we got a shadow operator 🥲

@0xavp @smykjain @qatarairways @Starlink @SingaporeAir My comment wasn't about Singapore airlines specifically but in general. Singapore airlines is a premium airline :)

@Mudit__Gupta @smykjain @qatarairways @Starlink @SingaporeAir Singapore airlines doesn't charge for water, and they give their wifi for free as well

Why does no other airline aside from @qatarairways added @Starlink support. Qatar gives +100 Mbps speed and is the single biggest reason for me to pick Qatar airways over others. Posting this from @SingaporeAir at 0.5 Mbps speed 🥲

@tkstanczak Neh, pre installed bloatware will continue to exist. Though I do agree that phones will get the ability to create applications on demand. Essentially, Siri/Bixby/Google etc will become fully fledged agents willing to do and create anything for your device.

soon when you buy a new phone it will be some empty OpenClaw-like OS that will just wait for you to tell it what applications it should create for you hello phone, I need an alarm clock, a calendar, and a browser

@nikkaroraa Well, it's much cheaper than paying a senior engineer.

$15-25 for automated PR review is crazy - regardless of how thorough it is

@adamscochran This happened earlier in the morning, before the announcement.

After the claim of “no more striking neighbors” lol

@militereum I haven't tried it yet. Maybe the OS is not as polished but the hardware and software support is miles ahead.

@Mudit__Gupta Are you kiddin me? Have you tried macOS 26? Everything is at least 3 clicks away. There is no innovation on Apple’s part and almost every aspect of it is worse than the previous release.

I've been using Linux as my daily driver since I started coding. Never felt that I'm missing out on anything. However, things are changing fast. For the first time in my life, I'm feeling like even the best linux/windows are significantly behind mid range Apple devices.

@newmichwill Guess I'll find out soon enough 🥲

@Mudit__Gupta Indeed, but Mac UX is just unbearable!

@adidshaft Ahahah. No reason to upgrade. It has rtx 3080 and honestly, GPUs haven't gotten meaningfully better in last 6 years. I can still play all the games at good FPS.

@Mudit__Gupta so when are you planning to upgrade your other "dedicated machine" btw? i'm happy to shelter anyone from dubai specially if it is high end GPU gaming dedicated machine ...someone has to do good in this world, machines are the future 🫡

@bilinearlabs @Dune @0xPolygon Interesting catch. Wen fix @dune?

@Mudit__Gupta FYI it seems that @Dune is missing some events for @0xPolygon. At least at height 74592272. x.com/bilinearlabs/s…

AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 that launched 2 years ago gave me a glimmer of hope but it never made it to usable laptops. Two years have passed and we've not gotten a better chip than that 😭

CPU, Display, Battery, RAM, Software support (AI tools are being built for Mac first)...Apple is winning everywhere. Except gaming but I have a dedicated machine for that anyway. I am failing to find a reason to continue using Linux. Probably going to finally get a MacBook 🥲
