  • There are some fringe benefits for blockchain but massive issues with normal human issues like:

    • Scams/theft: person has the wallet lost through scam or left, how do you invalidate the lost credentials or tickets.
    • Wallet loss: loss through any number of means: fire, incompetence, computer being destroyed, loss of account to cloud backup etc
    • Issuer need to invalidate: if tickets/credentials were purchased by fraud or an issue occurs where they need to invalidate

    How does blockchain handle these common situations?

  • Some day Cloudflare will enter their enshittifcation phase and a lot of small websites will die off rather than move off it. It's best for sites to not all be behind the same few companies.

  • Dude are you me? I literally just went through this. I used two profiles and had the memory issue. Couldn't even take photos, the camera app said device was out of storage despite deleting most of my apps. And apps crashing all over the place.

    The best part is... I'm traveling so it cost me half a day of vacation photos when I factory reset. And same as you... Will have to fix work 2FA on Monday.

    What he hell were they thinking??

  • Great reads! Thanks for posting.

    I think it would be neat if, as something gained popularity, more and more of it were re-written in optimized assembly. I mainly work in .NET, which performs fine for what it is, but there are some libraries like Dapper (which is a micro-ORM) which are written in IL, which is incredibly difficult to do but results in it being insanely fast compared to what you could do in purely managed .NET. I'm sure if it were written in assembly it would be an order of magnitude faster than that.

  • I would love it if every website change on Twitter/X didn't result in endless "news articles". I need to find a way to block this crap. I literally don't care. Stop using X if you don't like it. Done. Stop talking about it. This is worse than celebrity gossip.

  • I've learned recently on social media that the truth behind every headline/post is the most boring version of it, or to put it another way, every headline/post is written in the most explosive language possible to describe what actually happened. The vast majority of people never go further than the headline and take it face value, then post reactionary hatred hot takes.

    It really bums me out. Makes it hard to enjoy the internet when everything is about riling people up, and people being riled up at the wrong thing.

  • Putting solar on moving vehicles makes no sense except for very specific use cases.

    Install those same panels on the ground and you can point them at a good angle for sunlight capture 24/7, don't have to literally carry the weight of them everywhere, don't have to worry about them getting dirty all the time from moving around winter roads, and are much easier to repair.
