explained to someone that the only rule you need for AGI is to never put it in charge of designing the incentive system (taxes, gvt etc) and their reply was “but wait that’s all that these people really want to do with it”
and it’s like well yes. of course that’s their goal. but if they’re serious about AGI Safety whatever whatever they should not do that. it is an unwise idea.
of course they will do it anyway because hubris is a bitch

one thing I’ve noticed is that acknowledging the strengths in another person’s sworn enemy is usually not well received by the person whose enemy it is

It used to be the only way to get a talk slot was if i invited you, now i have an open form and i stg the invitation-only mode was so much easier emotionally 😭
people joke about me running too many events (and i agree!) but holy cow the truth is there’s too much content to fit on even the *existing* stage space that we’re creating
if you want to present at a @npub1dwa…7c52 i suggest you apply sooner rather than later and consider putting in an application for Taipei 🇹🇼 or Brazil 🇧🇷

As of right now, there's no post-quantum signatures that *don't* eat up a lot of blockspace. There's no getting around this fact. What's cool about SPHINCS+ is that you can tune it to have smaller signatures, depending on how many resigns you need.
Exactly how big those signatures are won't be known until the BIP parameters get proposed, but they'll very likely be on the order of 50-100x larger than existing sigs
Elliptic curves are *really* elegant in how densely you can get 128-bit security; unfortunately they're (theoretically) breakable.
SPHINCS+ is pretty complex and I was questioning whether we really needed all the complexity for sigs; unfortunately I think the answer is yes and we will either have to increase the block size, accept lower through put, or pick a different option entirely like zero-knowledge proofs.

no the pyramid scheme is a reference to the hypertree structure that SPHINCS+ uses to embed lots of signatures under a single pubkey
