What reliability issues are you having with TensorFlow on M1 Macs?

Good points about lack of cryptography in the current standards, but the fix there seems to be a function of profit: as long as NFT resales are up & to the right evidently security doesn’t matter

Upvoting for the use of kabuki in explaining the melodramatic pantomime of crypto hype, if only we were all more artisanal in building out this nascent blockchain tech. Imagine if tcp/ip were invented today with all this pre-marketing by VCs
