Today’s guest is DC Builder - a pseudonymous dev who works as an engineer at Worldcoin and maintains DevPill.me - a guide to becoming a web3 engineer. DC Builder has contributed quite a bit of open source content & research to the space as well. He’s written things like deep dive guides on L2s and he also created the zero knowledge machine learning community.In this episode, we got deep into the weeds on ZK ML (a fascinating topic I knew nothing about before this convo), becoming a web3 dev, and how to decide which communities and ecosystems to invest time into. This is a great episode for engineers looking to level up in the industry, and for anyone curious about ZK ML. 00:00 Intro3:20 How DC builder got into crypto7:31 Bottom up vs top down learning9:17 From research to development13:45 devpill.me breakdown16:41 Advice for early web3 engineers118:48 How to evaluate new developer ecosystems?23:09 Leveling up as a developer27:39 ZK32: 28 ZK ML - a wild topic42:29 Using ZK for *interactions* with ML models47:44 Working at Worldcoin (ZK ML experiments and Worldcoin ID state bridge)56:33 Moving data from Polygon to Ethereum L11:03:43 Learning about how the EIP/ERC process works1:06:44 Building social capital in the industry1:12:54 Other things that DC builder is interested in1:15:53 What does DC Builder hope that our industry accomplishes?
