GM Farcaster Ep201 Monday January 13, 2025

This is bad ass... 👀 👇 @nounishprof this is similar to that website Maker that probably got decommissioned? Not sure if it ever worked for you. Make a prompt and it makes the foundation of a MiniApp (and launched a coin i think as well...not sure 😆) @ urls

gm I noticed that the best projects in farcaster are the ones who collaborate with others case in point: - degen and ham working with proxyswap - now clanker having a degen pairing, bankr launched on clanker together > alone, support others and they’ll support you, many such cases

Thank you @jesse.base.eth

Clanker offsite, sometimes we call it a “black site” Due to the laws in this jurisdiction, this undisclosed location has proved useful for dealing with several forks

This whole claim and share process was super smooth, good job team 👍

“what’s one belief you changed your mind about in the past year?" I used to think if given the chance to take an immortality pill, I wouldn't take it. I didn't want to be live on forever. However, I've changed my mind over the last year. I now think I will. "what sparked the change?" These are all hypothetical musings still but I realized there will be ways to _move on_ even after said pill, if one were to choose to do so. Human lifespan seems incredibly short on a universal time scale and there's no reason for it to remain so. Longer, potentially infinite, lives are inevitable and moving on will become a choice rather than a necessity. "and how has it influenced your perspective?” Made me more optimistic. Feels like humanity is just getting started. I am still pessimistic on the timeline of hitting this milestone i.e. I don't think it will necessarily happen during our lifetimes (hype cycles underestimate the trough of disillusion). However, I do think that given time, we will hit infinite lifespan.

1. Because all eyes are on AI 2. MC of 200M at launch magnifies attention. 3. DAO whitelist included prominent folks who have attention. Outsized “returns” for whitelisted folk, and then some folks dumping including bankless ventures further sharpened spotlight. .5 SOL “investment” > 200K around launch, 5 SOL > $2M So generally when a select few are gifted 200K for $100, saltiness ensues. https://x.com/brix_farm/status/1878120901083849105?s=46&t=TVy9rDl3UkuxmVj4e18bOA

10 USDC for best explainer on AICC situation Why do people care relative to everything else recently?

Brother sister musical talent on farcaster 🔥🔥 https://warpcast.com/mialailanii/0xb3736cdc https://warpcast.com/devanibiza/0x0adfa4d1

i think this is a good first introduction, don’t u think?

Pro Tip: I recommend turning on notifs to @bracky, just for the next couple hours. Bracky's account will launch today's *Bracket Frame*, and being early to trading here is extremely valuable to your position. (Linear bonding curve...)

I worked on the transcript pipeline of my GM Farcaster AI bot project today. The pipeline is important because access to transcripts is what sets @warpee.eth apart from other bots so I need to make it ridiculously easy to upload new transcripts. Pipeline steps: - generate transcript from youtube video - clean transcript for known spelling issues like NanishPrav and dGen - break into chunks - create embeddings from chunks - upload embeddings to vector database Updates: - added better support for batch processing - can now safely reprocess videos that have already been loaded into the database, necessary for when I go back and work on improving the quality of transcripts Pipeline is solid and working smoothly, and as of now, @warpee.eth has access to transcripts from 170 episodes. I plan to upload the remaining episodes over the next few days. Once that’s complete, I’ll shift my focus to enhancing the quality of the bot's replies.

If you have an existing web app / PWA and want to convert it into a frame. If you do this, please reach out. Would love to boost your frame so more people discover it. https://youtu.be/9Dc64u8JTu0?si=weseEI5U3yrEt1SN

Fridays are for shipping, and today I'm excited to announce the launch of @zerorightsmedia, an open source onchain content collective. If you're a fan of ZEROPOD and @jackwyldes.eth's very cool & very based mustache, then you're already a fan of ZRM. We are going to be cooking up tons of amazing zero-copyright content together about Ethereum, Base, Nouns and the Superchain, all year long. Read the full announcement on @paragraph below, and mint "Still Day Zero" on @base.base.eth to celebrate this new chapter with us (link in next cast) https://paragraph.xyz/@toadyhawk/still-day-zero

🚨 new game alert 🚨 blackhole is live! test your timing and dexterity with our latest farcade game this game was really meaningful to me, as it was one of the inspirations for the farcade studio which will allow anyone to become a game dev. it's game time https://play.farcade.ai/games/10

Introducing data usage settings on Warpcast (requires app store update) By default we don't auto-play videos and we load lower-quality images on slow connections. Now, you can enable this feature for cellular networks or to be always on. More improvements in the works.

Bounty of 800 degen for tagging me in replies on a Farcaster or Twitter post from a crypto user that would be a good fit for posting on Bountycaster First tag on each qualified post wins, amount is per tag with no limit on number of claims. Deadline in 1 month @bountybot e.g. https://warpcast.com/ace/0x45189a9e

Cheer post of the day!! I’m gonna start posting cheer videos each day - starting off with a brutal fail 😖😖

Have you always wanted to play my award-winning game SmartHome without having to leave farcaster? Well now you can! https://smarthome.steviep.xyz

@clanker deploy $hackathon with name "weekly hackathon" this is an experiment, not associated nor official. what happens if an ongoing hackathon is bootstrapped and give prizes come from the fees that this clanker will generate? funding public goods with awareness and attention. farcaster is a playground

A new year's resolution is to write more technical blog posts about challenges we're working on for Warpcast + Farcaster. Here's a post discussing our migration from Faktory to our own hand-rolled job processing framework, and the lessons learned. https://paragraph.xyz/@sds.eth/building-a-job-processing-system

So far, Farcaster has been the best distribution channel for https://orbiter.host I think all but one of our sites have directly come from people seeing @stevedylandev’s and my posts on Farcaster.

Minor annoyance: warpcast not optimized for low bandwidth, difficult to use on airplane wifi It’s 10000000% better and more performant vs a year ago, and likely not a priority, but wanted to share the feedback. Was hoping to get thru all my DCs on a flight but getting a lot of “no messages, yet” errors 🙏
