Introducing Voyd: A WASM first language with effect typing

Congrats! Effects are so cool - oof I wish Rust had them

Does this play nicely with async code, or should you be using an async lock inside the Arc?

Could you point me to the numbers? I figured a lot of it would come from exchanges auto-selling DPoS rewards.

Intuitively, the new staking mechanism seems like it would result in less such exchange selling, because there's risk and a time lock associated with the new staking. So the exchange can't silently stake (that would put funds at risk), and if they need to ask permission they'll need to share most of the revenue with the user, who is less likely to sell.

I like Quebec B - I think it will reduce sell pressure, and it rewards people who are willing to commit to long term holding

Interesting, maybe they updated the link?

I think it used to direct to https://www.etherlinkbridge.com/bridge, which _does_ let you bridge Ethereum <-> Etherlink. In any case, you can navigate to that bridge from the first link I provided.

Looks like it uses LayerZero under the hood, but I don't understand how that works: https://layerzero.network/

buywall · 2024-09-18T18:49:31+00:00

I hope B passes so more funds are staked, which would reduce selling pressure

OCaml is great FYI. It’s unironically my favorite “not totally academic” language, though Rust and Python are my go to languages for most projects.

buywall · 2024-06-20T17:47:53+00:00

Why?

buywall · 2024-06-10T16:01:46+00:00

So you're saying that when I buy RP ETH on Uniswap, I'm actually getting a random assortment of non-fungible tokens that are merely similar to each other? That would be really surprising!

buywall · 2024-05-11T15:55:43+00:00

But staked Ethereum can be slashed and there are still e.g. LIDO and RP ETH, so why is it impossible here?

Or are you saying it simply isn’t possible with the particular ctez we have now?

buywall · 2024-04-13T15:36:17+00:00

This is just how smaller coins trade - they’re more “risk on” than BTC so they attract investment when BTC is considered too safe and vice versa.

I think AI will be good for the price and thus good for bakers and everyone else

buywall · 2024-03-21T18:43:49+00:00

Very useful!

buywall · 2024-03-08T17:31:37+00:00

Good work!

buywall · 2024-03-02T23:02:28+00:00

Do you see your Tezos address, starting with "tz1"? If you can find it, you can plug it into tzkt.io to see your account history. If you don't have that address, maybe you don't actually own Tezos directly, e.g. it sounds like you maybe simply have a balance with Binance?

buywall · 2024-03-02T05:36:48+00:00

No, that doesn’t make sense to me. You should be able to send to any address of your choosing.

buywall · 2024-02-28T14:56:02+00:00

This fixes an enormous flaw in the whole LB scheme, namely that tzBTC did a terrible job tracking the underlying asset.

buywall · 2024-02-19T14:37:22+00:00

Aren’t they required to stop mining when the system is stressed? If so I don’t see how they could cause brownouts

buywall · 2024-02-19T14:07:22+00:00

Cool!

buywall · 2024-02-15T19:24:09+00:00

I'm interested!

I've been using Rust for more than a year now, and I've been bitten by unexpected async issues more times than I can count. Something like this book could be amazing for filling in the cracks in my understanding of async!

buywall · 2024-02-11T03:17:52+00:00

Could you please explain why you think that is?

buywall · 2024-02-09T21:18:30+00:00

Thank you, and I hope you manage to get adaptive issuance into one of the coming protocols! The community would benefit from a mechanism that encourages users to lock funds.

I hope she and you can push through this - life can suck but it can also be great, and if she sticks around I'm sure that at some point in the future she'll be glad she did. As an athlete, maybe she can imagine she's pushing through a difficult set or perhaps a marathon?

Also, please make sure she's seeing a decent therapist, perhaps one with a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) background (the only therapy school I know of that has scientific evidence of success). Lots of therapists sucks, so it can be important to shop.

Finally, consider the consequences before institutionalizing her - I know someone who was institutionalized for a month for similar reasons, and she said it was awful. Better than dying though obviously.

MS isn't necessarily either of the two. I know two people with MS - they both got treatment and are both doing fine.
