  • Who says blockchains cant also form a DAG?
    Its a blockchain because each block contains a digest of the previous block(s), which creates a tamper-evident chain of digests for all history.

    Its just a type of blockchain, just like a subaru is a type of car.

    You might have grown up thinking “all cars have 4 wheels”, but my subaru has a fifth wheel in the back and its still a car because having exactly 4 wheels it not the defining charcteristic of cars.








  • I think AI is cool, but how people use it can be problematic.

    1. Fraud. Its easy to over-represent the capabilities and sell a bullshit tool to people.

    2. Spyware. They require shedloads of data to train so AI companies are doing whatever they can to get data on people.

    3. Taking Jobs. This is an existential threat to entire professions.

    4. Spam. LLMs are a bullshit factory, so spamming and astroturfing are easier than ever.
