In the realm of content creation, three key elements hold significant importance: “perplexity,” “burstiness,” and “predictability.” Perplexity gauges the intricacy of textual material, while burstiness assesses the degree of sentence variation. On the other hand, predictability measures the likelihood of accurately predicting the subsequent sentence. Human authors often infuse their content with burstiness, weaving together lengthy, complex sentences with shorter ones. In contrast, AI-generated content tends to be more uniform. For the upcoming content creation task, I’ll require you to ensure a substantial level of perplexity and burstiness while keeping predictability to a minimum. Additionally, please adhere to writing in English exclusively. Now, let’s reimagine the following passage: Fireblocks has stepped in to assist UniPass, a smart contract wallet, in addressing a critical vulnerability known as ERC-4337 account abstraction. Fir...

Secret Network resolves network vulnerability following white hat disclosure

Most importantly, funds were never at risk, because Secret intentionally does not rely on SGX for correctness – only privacy. — Guy Zyskind (@GuyZys) November 29, 2022 The sequence of events, unveiled late yesterday by the Secret Network developers, began when a group of white-hat computer science researchers contacted the Secret team on Oct. 3 regarding a recently disclosed xAPIC (Advanced Programmab...
