One thing I should definitely add to this thread is that the best existing chance to cut bandwidth is probably at the network layer. In particular episub can probably cut bandwidth at least in half so it's a huge priority! though we currently moving in the wrong direction...

Why I left @twitter or rather why I did not sign up for “extremely hardcore” Twitter 2.0

So far no Twitter employees have been deactivated — even those who’ve publicly resigned. Musk and his team only collected the list of “yes’s” — employees who said they want to be part of Twitter 2.0. They’re still trying to track who is out.

I was laid off from Twitter this afternoon. I was in charge of managing badge access to Twitter offices.
Elon just called me and asked if I could come back to help them regain access to HQ as they shut off all badges and accidentally locked themselves out.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
While a number of people in the replies are taking this literally, this is a joke.
Just a few days earlier, this same user claimed to have been laid off by a different company:

The other "magic heat math" thing I want is the ability to connect a running air conditioner with a running hot water tank. Could have 200% efficiency!!

What someone needs to invent is a heater that removes CO2 from the air. That would never go out of style!

Apologies, this is $659,000, not $659. I very much regret the error.

FTX says the "fair value" of all the crypto that FTX international holds is a mere $659!
Remember that SBF has been marking it at $5.5bn: ft.com/content/f05fe9f8-ca0a…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This chart is in Thousands - so the actual value is $659,000. This is noted as well by the author of this tweet later on: twitter.com/kadhim/status/…

THE FTX FIRST DAY DECLARATION
New CEO John Ray is scathing about Sam Bankman-Fried's management.
"Never in my career have I seen such a complete failure of corporate controls and such a complete absence of trustworthy financial information."

The one I worry about most is if we have $10B in a ZK-rollup 2y from now and it gets hacked because of a bug in the circuit constraint code or the EVM wrapper around it.
For the latter, keep it simple and formal-verify. For the former, my best ideas are:
