ANNOUNCEMENT: @HashCloakLabs is not @hashcloak.
It's an impersonator.
@hashcloak is a consulting company and under NO circumstances will we be launching a coin.
Anyone who knows me knows that I'm pretty generally anti-shitcoin (with nuances of course).
If you bought a token supposedly associated with hashcloak, you've been scammed.

Not to toot my own horn but my toxic trait is learning faster than most people and then expecting them to learn as fast as me given that they have more time than me

The conclusion in this post is the most sensible thing that the space needs to get to much faster imo
Tokens for the sake of launching tokens with retail holding the bag will most likely never die out.
But, we owe it to the space to actually come up with decent mechanisms to make tokens valuable. So, either playing in the arena at a lower val or pulling a hyperliquid is the way to go in the long term

l2beat for private ai thanks to @socrates1024
a daily scorecard verifying which private-ai inference providers actually run inside tees

Where are the AI privacy advocates?
Do they even exist, beyond @ErikVoorhees ?
Open, private AI is needed when handling sensitive health records, confidential corporate records, patents and trade secrets, and a host of other things we don't want to leak to big hyperscaler clouds.

Im infinitely amused by people who believe you cant trust an LLM to write correct code — but you can trust it to write correct formalizations of your software and FV it.
It’s not that FV can’t help the clanker, but if you are trusting it to just work — the LLM can con you to believe his LARP FV is correct and it fixed valid bugs as well as it can convince you it wrote the software you wanted.
If nobody is checking anything — all you have is a text generator generating the text “the code is bug-free now!”
You can get the same result with one line of Python
print(“the code is bug-free now!”)

"Agentic AI tools aren't really for me, I'm not a programmer."
This is backwards. Everyone is a programmer now because the ultimate language translation technology was invented. Your native tongue is now a programming language. You are now limited only by your imagination.

Lol
Imagine using AI for this when you can literally just go on a walk at your destination instead
A lot of y'all don't like exploration but the social signalling of travelling and it shows
Traveled to 14 cities internationally this year. I have never come across an AI tool (including Claude and ChatGPT) that can plan my travel well.
Restaurant, cafe, coffee shop recs have a 50% hit rate.
Sightseeing recs are always missing a minor detail (place is closed, require tickets, is insanely crowded, etc.)
Hotel recs aren't great - they're never the hotels I'd actually end up staying in.
Transport recs are decent.
I think the human touch is still so important here.
Has anyone actually had success using AI to plan an entire trip?

Generated bindings make private app values and authorized outputs normal Rust types. Configure coordinator, node, and identity settings once, then use `run_typed_with_manifest(...)` from the client-owned path.
See the deployed client path:
docs.stoffelmpc.com/rust-sdk…
ALT Rust loads a Stoffel bytecode artifact, derives off-chain client IO, sets coordinator, node RPC and identity configuration, then builds StoffelClient.

I write the most when I'm pissed off at other people getting things wrong (or so I believe), and I've never written as much in my life as I am now, during the AI renaissance

If you are just starting out on this platform, don't use AI to write for you. (use it in other areas of your work/business!).
Say real things, make real connections.
Large creators using it, erodes their brand too...but it's certainly not how you build one.
Be a Person.

Shamir secret sharing starts with one useful constraint: no single share should reveal the secret.
The threshold defines which group can reconstruct it.

If this passes then we might see Polymarket as a sponsor for an EPL team in the near future
❗️ Polymarket is lobbying EU and UK regulators to treat its bets on elections, sports and the return of Jesus Christ as financial derivatives, which would let it sidestep the gambling laws that keep it banned across much of Europe, the Financial Times reports.
Gambling regulators in the UK, France, Germany and Italy say it still needs local licences, and ESMA warned this month that prediction markets are "rife with insider trading."
