The systemic suppression and censorship on Reddit is overwhelming. It's not limited to a few "communities", it's the entire system. Data scientist/activist Robert Hawkins has been working at quantifying the degree

I'd love to see more systematic documentation of Reddit's censorship, since they have so much power over the opinions of so many. There is https://www.reveddit.com who has done a lot of work for anti-censorship.

This is why user comments need to be cryptographically signed. Cryptography prevents this sort of nefarious and hidden corruption.

How are websites going to implement multi-key user accounts? This is all just left up to implementations?

Google != passkeys. Google may allow multiple keys, but that is outside of what FIDO specifies for passkeys. Here's a source saying that passkeys expect one and only one key: https://auth0.com/blog/our-take-on-pass

I do not believe this is true. Passkey is only a 1 user, 1 key system. This means that to login on a second device, the 1. key must be exported from the first device, 2. encrypted, and 3. transferred to the second device. Each device nee

A simple proof of possession (pop), signed ahead of time, solves #3. The message: `{"pay":{"alg":"ES256","msg":"I own this key","tmb":"9PcBWntvjAktwfiPp8WxgOyQOwc1h6Lo1UnB_gkW

I do not believe that is the case. Do you have a source showing that multiple keys for a single user on per a single service basis is supported?

Our website is already using public key authentication using Coze. https://github.com/Cyphrme/Coze . We've been doing public key authentication for around 2 years now. No passwords needed, just public key auth.

I think a per-user blockchain with many user keys and a Merkle root representing current account state, synced individually to websites, would be a superior option to "passkeys". Websites would have to track a Merkle root on a pe

You're right, omitting opinions would have made for a more informative piece. Here's some other (probably better quality) links: - https://www.chieftain.com/story/news/2022/03/18/bighorn-so

We are (unfortunately) already doing just JSDoc. Typescript migration was on our road map, but when we dug into it, it didn't solve the biggest issue we had with Javascript, which forces the developer to be aware of various pitfalls.

The moon has a temperature, and it is 4000k.

Why don't we default to the color of the moon? 4000k?

I would advocate for 4000k.

The moon is white. White is the most natural color of light at night. White street lights are probably the most natural approximation. The article doesn't say anything about white light, but does say "Normal street lighting can

In my mind, gravity must self interact due to moving at exactly the same speed as light (and light is affected by gravity). To put this in quantitative terms, the paper "Gravitational Waves and Gamma-rays from a Binary Neutron Star Me

In my mind, key rotation is foundational, and neither system appears to support that.

XML is oversized for the majority use case. It's easier to extend a simple standard than to amputate a behemoth with unneeded appendages.
