Kevin Sekniqi || Ava Labs: Blockchains from First Principles | Logan Jastremski Podcast #9

[@gaussniwre866]

This is single-handedly the best honest technical discussion on distributed system I ever seen on the topic.

[@mcengizaydin]

Kevin is awesome, ultimate trust to the success of Avalanche blockchain

[@LoganJastremski]

Without question!🙏

[@Argetnar]

This was an incredibly valuable podcast, I loved the technical depth but it was still very understandable. Nice to hear engineers talking rationally instead of the usual hyperbole/marketing mudslinging of CT. Eagerly anticipating a Kevin pt.2

[@LoganJastremski]

Thank you so much!

[@vladvale]

Fantastic conversation. As non technical guy I cant say I understood 100%, but I think I have learned a lot. Also, Kevin just confirma to me one of the things that I find most compelling about Avalanche (besides the technology) which is the pragmatic (and extremely ambitious) view of what blockchain can become. They are not beting on some very questionable and borderline apocaliptic view about the financial world, the dollar, etc. No. They are looking to get to real.mass adoption and to get into as many sectors as possible. And Avalanche, being very flexible and adaptable, is already ahead of the competitors in the path of making this a reality.

Imagine being early to a podcast, subbed!

[@LoganJastremski]

LFGGG! Thank you Sir

[@ExcelBaller]

Except pod, Kevin book smart and has technical exoerience. He explains it effortlessly and great questions to keep the conversation going

[@LoganJastremski]

Much love! Thank you

[@01383094]

great discussion. good questions. would watch again.

[@fdrtrrrrrdddd]

Awesome interview, thank you very much!

[@senri-]

Great talk, at 1:01:17 Kevin mentions having smart contracts in parallel and only talking together when they need to and how this would probably cause regression. I don't know how true that is, Radix claims to have accomplished such a thing without the drawbacks, I'd love to have heard his thoughts or if you could follow up on this

[@LoganJastremski]

Part 2 will come 👀

[@HollyDollyRun]

Absolute brain candy, thanks for making this. How can we support your work?

[@9868john]

Amazing talk, so cool to hear the case for deterministic vs probabilistic algos. What are some of the drawbacks/risks of a slight margin of error with Avax probabilistic approach?

[@guy0909]

The problem ethereum has is the active state on its own is 35BG which is already more than double the memory size of the minimum node requirement meaning it has to store most of the active state on the SSD which is slower. AVAX hasn't hit this point yet. Once they realise there is a point where the active state can be bigger than the memory and the new bottleneck is the SSD read write speeds, they will also want to start limiting tps.

super cool 👍

Somebody gives Kevin a bucket, he’s leaking alpha again
