This sounds very reasonable. Some of the replies in this thread are misinterpreting what I said. I didn't say the government should run the APIs etc, just that we already have identity in the real world and it generally works, so we ca

We already do identity verification in the real world, it's called government issued IDs. There should be opt-in OS-level identity verification based on zero knowledge proofs and tied to your government-issued digital ID. This also sol

Yes. There's a separate queue for sites that need js rendering and it eats much more into your crawl budget. Best way to avoid it imo is to use something like Rendertron, which is made and recommended by Google.

Their "password manager" on Mac is called Keychain Access. The UX is very bad, the interface is old and clunky and it doesn't sync with iOS (if for example you create a secure note there's no way to access it on iOS) - n

This is why we need good OS-level password managers. Phones and now computers have dedicated security chips which are infinitely more secure than any cloud solution. Such an easy market to grab that it boggles me why Apple and Google aren&#

There seem to be at least two big issues with the upcoming merge: 1 - Stablecoin issuers like USDC can de facto determine which chain succeeds in case of a fork (PoW vs PoS) 2 - 70% of validators are US-based, and as custodians, they will h

Most of the examples of innocents being convicted are from before the invention of DNA forensics. The problem is the criminal justice system which too easily gives the death penalty. We could easily reduce the probability of conviction inno

Exactly. Wouldn't be surprised if this became a common type of scam on Uniswap.

Would you be willing to bet on it? I'd love some easy money.

In the overwhelming majority of cases, you will never pass that point. A well-optimized dedicated server with 90 fast cores, 128GB ram and 4TB SSD goes for $120/mo at Hetzner. That can easily handle 1 billion non-cached monthly page vi

Thank you for your amazing work. Redis has been by far the most dependable component of my tech stack and it's opened up a whole new way of thinking about data. Best of luck in your future endeavors!
