I’m turning 41, but I don’t feel like celebrating. Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet built for us by our fathers. What was once the promise of the free exchange of information is being turned into the ultimate tool of control. Once-free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age checks (Australia), and mass scanning of private messages (EU). Germany is persecuting anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets. France is criminally investigating tech leaders who defend freedom and privacy. A dark, dystopian world is approaching fast — while we’re asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms — and allowed them to be taken away. We’ve been fed a lie. We’ve been made to believe that the greatest fight of our generation is to destroy everything our forefathers left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market, and free speech. By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we’ve set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction — moral, intellectual, economic, and ultimately biological. So no, I’m not going to celebrate today. I’m running out of time. WE are running out of time.

Together with @BTCScalingLabs, we’ve ported the IPC codebase to Bitcoin over the past year. The result — BTC-IPC — enables scalable, interoperable L2 networks that inherit Bitcoin’s security and cut transfer costs (or raise throughput) by 23x. Details in thread. 1/13

Proving an Ethereum PoS block's ancestry is hard. Verifying predecessor blocks without downloading all of Ethereum's ~200MB Beacon state is far from trivial. Inspired by @lodestar_eth's proving API, we built a Rust library that simplifies proving the lineage between two beacon blocks: github.com/commonprefix/a…

We're thrilled to be part of @a16zcrypto's CSX accelerator program in NYC. Stay tuned for our upcoming announcements!
Jason Rosenthal@jasonrosenthal

I’m excited to announce the 21 startups we’ve selected to join our Crypto Startup Accelerator (CSX) Fall 2024 cohort, which starts this week. Over the next 8 weeks, they’ll get firsthand lessons from top crypto founders, receive guidance and support from @a16zcrypto’s investing and operating teams, and build connections with each other and the broader a16z network. The CSX Fall 2024 companies are coming to NYC from 11 different countries: Austria, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Germany, Japan, Poland, Portugal, United Arab Emirates, UK and US (including Puerto Rico). They’re building on every level of the crypto stack, including AI, DeFi, infrastructure, and consumer applications such as photo sharing and mapping. Learn more about the Fall 2024 teams below: • Anera Labs (@hrojantorse): building liquidity infrastructure that unites all onchain liquidity • Banyan: uses AI to bridge communication gaps at work and bring clarity to the enterprise • Blocksense (@blocksense_): enables creation of oracles that can leverage internet data and CPU/GPU computations • Cork Protocol (@Corkprotocol): risk pricing protocol accelerating onchain credit • Dot (@dotdotfan): transforms user-created pixel art into game pieces for onchain games • Fermah (@fermah_xyz): building a universal zero-knowledge proof generation layer • Future Primitive (@futureprimitive): creating a new home for internet photo pals • Kuzco (@kuzco_xyz): a marketplace for LLM inference • MeshMap (@meshmapxyz): building a 3D map of the world and a network of AR content • Opacity Labs (@OpacityNetwork): privately verifies web2 data with zkTLS • OpenGradient (@OpenGradient): building a blockchain that aims to bring the world's compute onchain • PIN AI (@PINAI_IO): building an open platform for personal AI (data+agents) • Pod (@poddotnetwork): a new L1 primitive that is blockless, leaderless and relaxes the notion of transaction total ordering • Sekai (@joinsekai): makes it easy to create, share, and monetize interactive narratives • Skyfire (@trySkyfire): an open payment protocol which enables AI agents to be able to pay for anything • Suave (@suave_money_): enables DApps to accept any token from any wallet on any blockchain • t1 (@t1protocol): real-time proof generation to unify Ethereum • TACEO (@TACEO_IO): MPC encrypted compute for Web3 • Term Labs (@term_labs): a DeFi lending platform that matches borrowers and lenders at fixed rates • vlayer labs (@vlayer_xyz): trustless verifiable data infrastructure powered by zero-knowledge proofs • zkSpin (@zkspin): building highly-parallel blockchain to run demanding DApps onchain This is our second CSX cohort this year; the Spring 2024 program in London culminated with our Demo Day in June. The next CSX will be hosted in San Francisco in Spring 2025; if you’re interested in joining, applications will be open in early January. a16z CSX invests a minimum of $500,000 in each company that’s accepted. Keep an eye on the CSX website and newsletter for more updates as we have them. Congratulations to all the CSX Fall 2024 companies!

We got an email from the Serbian Registry of Internet Domain Names (RNIDS), the organisation that is responsible for the `.rs` top-level domain. Looks like they are a big fan of Rust. 😊

Akash wants you to check AutoSend.com thats why he
So @figma spent couple of years with Adobe and learned how to price their product as outrageously as possible!? $25/mo/seat for inspecting designs (Dev Mode)? I am not able to wrap up my mind around this pricing 😤

Komplet lepinja 🇷🇸 is the best breakfast in the world in 2023. View complete TasteAtlas Awards 23/24 lists: tasteatlas.com/best/foods-by-… This delicacy consists of a traditional flatbread (lepinja) that is cut in half, coated in thick cream (kajmak), and topped with an egg. The combination is shortly baked and should be doused with a mixture of warm meat drippings, which is locally known as pretop. Although it is nutritious and highly caloric, the dish is commonly enjoyed for breakfast and is best paired with a glass of yogurt or sour milk on the side. For the most authentic experience, it is recommended to eat it with your hands. Photo: @vilabregzlatibor

Soviet circus acrobat, Valentin Dikul, performing his power juggling act in 1985. The sphere balls weighed 88 lbs (40 kg) each. At age 14, Dikul was seriously injured during a gymnastic performance when a steel support cross beam broke, causing him to fall 43 ft (13 meters) and fracture his spine and suffer a traumatic brain injury. As part of his recovery process, Dikul began to train 5 to 6 hours a day stretching rubber bands, lifting heavy objects and doing push-ups. However, he was unable to even move his legs. Doctors told him that there was no hope that he would be able to walk again, but Dikul persisted by continuing to workout everyday until he would pass out from exhaustion. As he began to develop more muscles on his chest, body and arms, Dikul would incrementally increase the weights. Once he regained his upper body strength, he began to tie ropes to his feet and move them using a pulley system. At first he would move them just by pulling the ropes with his hands, then he began using counterweight loads. After 8 months, Dikul was discharged from the hospital. His story was told in the media and he became bombarded with letters asking for help. Dikul spent 3 to 4 hours a day responding to people and would send them instructions on his method of rehabilitation. In 1988, Dikul opened up a rehabilitation center to help people with spinal injuries. He is still heading it to this day and is alive and well.

@zeddotdev @berkeleygfx Things what would make it perfect: - Ability to hide tabs and status bar (complete zen) - Setting keymap for searching buffer symbols (unless I'm missing it?) - Bash (.env) syntax highlighting - sql, gql highlighting inside js/ts files I'm keeping track of releases! 👀

Three weeks in coding with @zeddotdev and not switching back. So fast and visually pleasing. ⚡️ Still missing a few bits but I'm having no problem day to day. And damn it looks so good with Berkeley Mono font from @berkeleygfx 🤤
