It’s no longer if you’ll get scammed. It’s when. I’m building Mitsukeru, an always-on AI butler that protects against scams, bad contracts, and social engineering. 💸 $1.03T lost to scams in 2024. ⚡ AI is accelerating infiltration. 🛡️ We need proactive defences, not reactive training. Why here? Because this is gra...

Reproducible builds are important, but what about reproducible videos? No surprise video is about a better ethos, reputation layer stuff that I've been hacking on in my spare time. No manual clicking. No editing timeline by hand. How it works: - Playwright drives the real app flow end-to-end - Narration generated loc...

I've forked before (MariaDB from MySQL). It's most interesting. Do not recommend for the faint hearted, but can say both are doing well. No dog in this fight, re: the current fork talk. Bit worrying this hack has been up for over an hour though. From a miniapp no less.

I've been talking about a better Ethos for months. We need the data to feed into Mitsukeru, anyway, so it has its first enterprise customer. "This goes down on your permanent record." AI-first reputation layer for humans, projects and agents: multi-LLM council reads everything (on-chain, socials, courts), builds liv...

i think the internet archive is extremely important, especially when we're looking for historical data that also can help with reputation discovery. publishers blocking them to prevent the ai companies from training on the data is truly very sad. we need more archives, not less!

Mitsukeru coded. If you encounter more such sites, would love to add it to the test harness. This is why I've long said, Mitsukeru LinkSentinel has a wider audience than "just crypto". If you've been following along, this goes back to how someone I know bought from an impersonated site, meat, and lost thousands due ...

any chance we'll see a better @neynarai soon, @grin @rish ? Searching thru the timeline, I am getting better hits with Grok (not that it's great), than neynar ai "The full all‑time + replies + keyword query is too large for the Farcaster indexer and is timing out."
