You seem to really misunderstand the purpose of the blue checkmark. It isn't to broadcast status, it is to help reduce impersonation and fraud. You'd think the Elon, having a notable and active Twitter account, would realize how b

They are who you say you are - assuming you can do proper verification of individual identity and affiliation, authorization to represent a business or brand, etc. for some portion of that first $8 payment.

I'd say the purpose of a nation is to manage resources, which are often natural resources. Some locales have deeds for land have time limits; you don't own the land, you have been granted rights to it. Sometimes the FAA will limit

There are experiments using ZKPs and pairing based schemes, going all the way back to Anonymous Credentials work. However, the availability and acceptability of even more widely acknowledged curves like Ed25519 and secp256k isn't there

JWT is a way to express claims. JWS is the underlying data format. JWTs are still profiled for their usage - the JWT you use under ACMEv2 is going to be different than the ID Tokens you get from OpenID Connect, or some bespoke cookie format

As someone else pointed out, there is work in OpenID Connect to support this model. The difference is that traditional Connect is typically a two party model - an OpenID Provider which gives claims which can be used for registration/au

I would expect the VC providers will be the issuing authorities - you won't get a digital driving license from Facebook, you'll get it from the DMV. Now they might not be running their own infrastructure, but they still have to be

It is somewhat split. Cryptographic protocols are often defined in IETF/IRTF. You'll see things like Kerberos (authentication and attributes), OAuth (delegated authorization), and privacypass (anonymized authorization). Many of th

For mobile drivers licenses in ISO 18013-5, the credential is a signed list of salted hashes, each representing a distinct named attribute. You release the credential as well as whatever attributes which were requested. You can disclose you

They use an internal interconnect, similar to how a server which took multiple distinct CPUs would use a motherboard-level interconnect. In addition to splitting the CPU or GPU into distinct units, you can also take other functions and use

To offer another take at a summary: Apple has offered App Extensions for several years, in both UI-serving and non-UI contexts. App extensions are secondary services, bundled within apps, to provide some service. These extensions are invoke

As someone who programmed COM back in the day for C++ applications, I can tell you definitively that you got no benefits over other languages outside of brittle macros and non-standardized Visual C++ compiler magics. Especially once you cro

IPC has been a systems feature for a while, but discovery is a higher level thing needed for this sort of plugin interface. COM and CORBA are ancestors I know about.

It is contextual. The things like system IPC where 1% would be huge are also typically not written in C, but in a mix of C and assembly. But writing at that level of specificity for an entire system greatly increases creation and maintenanc
