From the article:
> A book is a document, to me
How can versioning work for the above statement? Will there be a new book or we modify the existing book?
- scottmotte 7y agoLet's say I'm the NY Times and I host a page on my server at nytimes/2020/01/22/some-article. 1 hour later I realize I got one of the facts wrong, so I modify that hosted page on my server. I'm not making HTTP requests here, but, to your point, I am mutating the document at that url. Maybe the protocol would somehow store the diff between those 2 documents somewhere. There could be an organization, similarly structured to ICANN, that stored and surfaced those diffs long term to users.
