Hey, thanks for sharing this, this is a very cool project and one that is the obvious next step with iroh. I'm curious if you plan to make it into a library to be used, or you intend to keep it solely as an application?

I really like this. Would love a desktop app.

This is the true solution that gets the best of all worlds. The tech is just too immature still but this will change soon I hope.

For those curious, check out zkPassport (https://zkpassport.id/)

Great talk. Wish the camera focused on the slides more.

The ed25519 issues are absolutely insane. Anywhere I can read more about that?

Was nodding along as I was reading this. I recently was given a paper and spoke with the engineer implementing it. The paper was incredibly dense and hard to parse. But through talking with the engineer and rewriting some terms to more common names, the math turned out to be quite simple. Echoing your sentiment, I wish more mathematicians would use simple terminology. My personal theory as to why this isn't done is the same reason why overengineering happens, that the writer is trying to cover every base but makes the hottest path a jumbled mess.

I see. If iiuc, it's like an extension to an API endpoint. Instead of exposing only endpoints, you can let a user describe an intent and have the agent do the work. Is this not also the goal of an MCP as well?

I've been looking at all of the agent talk this past year with an open mind.

But I still do not know what a real use case for these would be (and don't say a travel agent). What is the point of these swarms of agents?

Can someone enlighten me?

Altman, Amodai and Musk seem to have no problem outright lying about the capabilities they have or the potential of what they're working on, in order to drum up hype. It sounds cool in the moment but it gets so old so fast. And with real costs in this case.

Gemini is the only plan I have not replaced. Claude and ChatGPT I will switch to depending on the ability of the coding agent, but Gemini is still my favorite for general information and especially for writing assistance.

I have recently been using Zed much more than cursor. However, the autocomplete is literally the only thing missing, and when dealing with refactors or code with tons of boilerplate, its just unbeatable. Eagerly awaiting a better autocomplete model and I can finally ditch Cursor.
