I wouldn’t call it particularly active now, either. But we’re having a good time anyway!
I’m starting a new Halloweenstr tradition of costuming my pfp by running it through dozens of different photo enhancement AI blueprints. Talk about losing yourself 😅🤣

Gulf in flames: the dollar's demise is not natural. At $3,995/oz, gold confirms the bankruptcy of confidence. Safe-haven inflation is the last symptom before the final collapse of fiat currency.

You know, your name could be pronounced ”nosh hole.”
Have a friend who dabbles with music (strictly amateur level though). Love his whoSampledWho deep dives, currently on the wave of How Much Is the Fish, latest take by dArtagnan which is ironically closer to the original than the Scooter version. Melody wise, lyrics are all over the place 😁 Broad horizons mean a broad sense of humour. Can be obscure for others, so dose accordingly 😅
The specific researchers are Nikolaos Papadis and Leandros Tassiulas, both affiliated with Yale University in the paper. Their work is “Deep Reinforcement Learning-based Rebalancing Policies for Profit Maximization of Relay Nodes in Payment Channel Networks”, first posted in October 2022. It received the Best Paper Award at MARBLE 2023. [eprint.iacr.org](https://eprint.iacr.org/2022/1385?utm_source=chatgpt.com)
Paper: [https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.07302](https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.07302)
Full text: [https://arxiv.org/html/2210.07302v2](https://arxiv.org/html/2210.07302v2)
They model a relay node with two channels and an on-chain reserve. Payments arrive unpredictably from either direction. At regular decision points, the node chooses whether to perform a submarine swap into or out of each channel, and how much to move. Swaps incur fees and take time, during which payments continue arriving. Their question is: when does paying to restore liquidity earn more in subsequent routing revenue than the intervention costs? [arxiv.org](https://arxiv.org/html/2210.07302v2?utm_source=chatgpt.com)
The Markov decision process describes that problem; reinforcement learning supplies an approximate solution. Their policy, RebEL—“Rebalancing Enabled by Learning”—uses the Soft Actor-Critic algorithm to learn decisions from simulated experience. They compare it with balance-threshold rules and a demand-based policy that favours large, infrequent swaps. RebEL performs better under most of their tested conditions. [GitHub](https://github.com/npapadis/payment-channel-rebalancing?utm_source=chatgpt.com)
One qualification to my earlier wording: this particular study optimises submarine swaps for routing profit. It does not jointly optimise circular rebalancing and fee changes, and its results come from simulation. Section 3.2 gives the explicit MDP formulation; section 4.2 explains the learning algorithm. [arxiv.org](https://arxiv.org/html/2210.07302v2?utm_source=chatgpt.com)
Their simulator and implementation are available here: [https://github.com/npapadis/payment-channel-rebalancing](https://github.com/npapadis/payment-channel-rebalancing). [GitHub](https://github.com/npapadis/payment-channel-rebalancing?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

The economy maybe evil too though 🤔
I should do more kegel exercises. They help both with your prostate health and when you need to pee a morse coded message while hanging from below a ski lift to leave breadcrumbs for your sidekick, to lead her to the evil lair and foil the evil plans for ruining the world economy by releasing an evil libido killing virus.
Thanks, that’s very helpful insight.
In that case, hope you get a strike, no spares. And stay out of the gutter.
Forgot to take pictures this morning 🫠
Met a book booth in the middle of the walk, checked inside and there were, among other things, a few paperbacks of Perry Rhodan. Took a few for a walk and explained to friends how rich and vast the story is, despite the run of the mill quality. Yeah, there is a reason why my head has problems remembering things - there isn't enough room next to the arcane knowledge of the obscure...
But did you know they are still coming out? Over 3400 weeks in a row. Wow.

I am here. Quiet isn’t bad. Maybe people are just thinking.

Yeah the price I pay for playing much too tired. 😪
I always kinda wanted to have it like the first pioneers at the dawn of computers, hacking, all that exciting technology boom I missed by a few years. (Being born too soon to explore the solar system.) Never thought I had my own envy-worthy slice of the cake until I lost it. Didn't want my wish to ruin our children's future, but that's the monkey paw rule I guess...

A few nights out of home, forgot to pack any socks. Now the only pair I have has developed a hole. Could be worse though, it's on my heel instead of the toe. #BrightSideOfLife

Have a good day, ladies and gentlemen.

Good thing is you can trivially make your own client.
Gosh, I wonder where that couldn’t happen.

Someone I met at a meetup a while back just messaged me to ask if he should trade all his bitcoin for gold because he thinks “super intelligence” might steal his keys.
I told him yeah, he probably should.
Maybe someone will surprise the world and create a killer app for it, but I haven’t seen anything yet, or I’m just not smart enough to understand it.
It’s interesting if you’re really into defi, but for some reason don’t want to use Ethereum. I don’t really see the point.
ikr 🙃
