by opening my browser and scripts as needed. Very very non-trivial (one chunk of the process was setting up a local server to intercept a callback), I don't think even I could've figured this out if I had a whole day. Avoided the binary in the end thanks to codex!

Genuinely so impressed with gpt-5.1-codex-max today. Uni switched eduroam auth to new cert based thing that wanted to install a program on my Mac, so I gave Codex the linux .run file and it extracted a python codebase, figured out the enrollment endpoints, called everything /1

Criminally underrated feature of Python 3.14 is that the `heapq` module now has * heapify_max * heappush_max * heappop_max to support max heaps. Used to be min heap only. Unfortunately python devs didn't just add support for lambdas for custom comparisons wtf

SaaS (sharks-as-a-service)
Undersea infrastructure is the single most fragile layer of the global economy yet nobody in tech is paying attention. Here are the facts: > Big Tech secretly owns half of the world’s subsea internet > China’s shipbuilding outpaces the U.S. by 232× > Deep sea mining is already

Right on schedule
Yesterday we did a livestream. TL;DR: We have set internal goals of having an automated AI research intern by September of 2026 running on hundreds of thousands of GPUs, and a true automated AI researcher by March of 2028. We may totally fail at this goal, but given the

Frustrated that I can’t freely buy equity in Kalshi, Polymarket, OpenAI etc! I can’t do the minimum transaction size for secondaries (100k). Can I just find an OpenAI employee and make a contract that tracks the value of their equity or something? I want exposure!!

Last year, I detected an MEV searcher who frontran more than a million ERC-4337 bundle transactions Yesterday, that searcher released a detailed breakdown - How he found this strategy - How his bot worked - How he battled competitors in the dark forest Great read
Open-sourcing my MEV strategy of frontrunning 4337 bundles on Polygon. DMs open if you want to talk about it! Code + writeup below.

I can finally announce that this was me! Will be open-sourcing my execution code for this in the next few days.
MEV searchers have frontrun more than 850,00 ERC-4337 bundle transactions on Polygon. I crunched the data to find out how much these bots are earning, who they’re frontrunning, and how they’ve affected Polygon’s smart account ecosystem. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁 ERC-4337 wallets make

Been writing code that actually makes money so haven’t been able to talk and work freely. Go follow my alt @_kanarazu_ where I’ll talk more about crypto/MEV, and I’ll keep this account for AI/personal work and news — more stuff coming soon now that I’ve graduated 🎓
I’ve sent ~1.35M transactions on Polygon in the past 5 months. I single-handedly account for 0.2% of all Polygon transactions. So, so much gas spent.
