I translated to English a mythological Hebrew caricature. It describes perfectly my feeling in the last few years.

Need to find out where can I print a t-shirt with it in #warsaw

Published: The CDP Conjecture - Limits of a Perfect Proof of Personhood

It's about the limitations of PoP (Proof of Personhood). Can you have a PoP that is:
🔸 complete,
🔸 decentralized and
🔸 privacy-preserving?

I'm quite happy with how this article turned out.

I loved Red Team Blues by Cory Doctorow! Recommended as a short (213 pages), page-turner, smart book.

The hero is a crime fighting silicon valley accountant, I kid you not. Expect lots of explanations about how the financial crimes of the rich work.

Book #2 is already out! #3 is coming up soon.

Just published: The Immutable Badge

"Imagine an immutable, hidden badge is attached to you.

You cannot remove, transfer, or modify it.

However, no one can see it without your knowledge and consent."

This is the ultimate biometric identifier.

Just published - Duopsism 🎉

A person is sitting in a dark room. There's nothing there besides a programmable black box.

What can he deduct about himself? the world?

A whimsical thought experiment for the holiday season in the spirit of Descartes and Mary's Room.

I just published a description of Woolball Phase I. The main ideas:

1. Two separate name spaces, for humans and for artificial entities (organizations, AIs..).

2. Registering a human name requires a zk proof-of-humanity.

I'm looking for feedback!
