This is a story about gallows humour…
Here’s something for your amusement:
Q: What’s worse than an abandoned blog?
A: A dead blogger
Not feeling particularly suicidal today, in case you were wondering. I think my mood will worsen before it improves though.
I’ve got a nice little project to play around with regarding Zero Knowledge Proofs – also known as zero-knowledge Succinct Non-interactive ARguments of Knowledge (zk-SNARK) systems – for Blockchain sidechain tech. Hopefully I can busy myself hacking something fun I want to build, rather than just lying around feeling miserable.
Otherwise, I could always get a job I suppose, although the prospect filled me with enough dread to trigger the downward spiral anyway.
I had another more fun/creative project planned, but the hard numbers just don’t make the payoff worth the effort.
Sleepless manic nights spent reading cryptography papers might pay off in the end.
