Another s/o who I failed to mention in the thread below - @GeorgeKnee & the State Channels team's work on github.com/statechannels/dis… was an important reference while working on Optimism's upcoming dispute game, and are still below the ballot threshold! vote.optimism.io/retropgf/3/…
big thread o' some of the awesome Optimism protocol contributors

Join us! There is a fully-funded PhD studentship in my group working on our levitated microdiamond experiment towards (eventually) a test of the quantum nature of gravity. I will also soon be advertising a 3-year postdoc job on this project. warwick.ac.uk/gavinmorley/va…

Christopher Swann, who has been whale watching for several years, eye-witnessed a pod of orcas hunting down a dolphin back in 2013. Among the shots he took, this one shows the approximately 4-ton mammal leaping about 4 meters into the air [source: buff.ly/2DWYTM0]
