Where This Creates Leverage
I know I’ve painted a pretty grim picture over the last few posts. But as a builder, I don't see this as the end. I see it as a massive opportunity. Every time a system breaks at a structural level...
Essays on software, business, and the craft of making things that matter.
I know I’ve painted a pretty grim picture over the last few posts. But as a builder, I don't see this as the end. I see it as a massive opportunity. Every time a system breaks at a structural level...
The industry talks about 'Infinite Context' as if it's a magic bullet. It’s not. A massive context window just means the model has a bigger library to get lost in. ...
I’ve been watching the markets lately, and it’s business as usual. People are worried about interest rates, regulation, and the next big pump. But no one is pricing in the quantum risk. It’s a clas...
I was thinking about the millions of 'lost' Bitcoin. Satoshi’s coins, the keys in landfills, the dormant wallets from 2011. In a quantum world, these are no longer just 'lost'—they are 'exposed.' A...
A great prompt is a Swiss Army knife, not a novel. At VoxBurst, we use 'Function-First' prompting—a method where we strip away all narrative fluff and focus exclusively on the available tools and t...
I’ve realized that the future rarely arrives in a clean package. It’s usually messy and layered. That’s why I think the real path forward for crypto isn't a total replacement, but a hybrid model. W...
I’ve been diving into the world of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) lately. It’s not magic; it’s just a different set of tradeoffs. We’re moving from the 'discrete log problem' to things like 'latti...
Every interaction with an LLM is a financial transaction. As developers, we have to stop treating tokens like infinite resources. Optimizing for token effic...
I’ve spent a lot of time debugging code, and I know that even a simple patch can break everything. Now imagine trying to patch a system that is decentralized, has no leader, and holds billions of d...
I’ve been thinking about the concept of 'latency' in a way I never have before. Usually, we think of an attack as something that happens in real-time. You try to break in, and you either succeed or...
I was reviewing some old wallet addresses the other day and I realized something uncomfortable. We talk about quantum as a future 'if,' but for many of us, the exposure is already a past 'done.' Th...
I’ve been looking into Shor’s Algorithm lately. It’s one of those things that sounds like science fiction until you realize the math actually works. Most of us think about security failing like a c...
