   I was there as the assistant head of river kayak safety, and it was a historic moment. if you were watching, i was the kayaker wrestling the malfunctioning bouybot back into place under state street. why they couldn't use old fashioned

   I was going to say that I'm building apps in Deno which are outside the npm ecosystem -- the issue is these days that Deno supports npm deps now so you risk someone in your supply chain using npm and suddenly one is exposed again. I ju

   yes, and we are using computers in our pockets now that are way more powerful than the ones we had when we were working on ssb. local indexes are possible, you and dom showed that back then. ssb had private bookmarks, let's dig into ho

   a colleague of mine recently insisted that bittorrent be included in web3 techs since it uses hashing. if we toss torrents under the title of web3 then it's been a huge success. atproto, however, could learn a lot from torrents and all

   yes, agreed, and isn't this feature re-encrypting all of the material without a ratchet or asymmetrical boxing?

   i missed that paragraph, thanks for pointing it out. i wonder what algorithm they're using here, and if we could use third party tooling to decrypt these messages on a local computer? it might be a pathway to some cool experimental thi

    got it. doesn't Signal already have on-device keys with a session ratchet? why not back those keys up so one can decrypt the entire history on any device?

    I'd also wonder where this shared encryption key for message "backups" is stored. If it's available on all of my devices, I suspect it would be available on other devices as well?

    I use Trystero as one of the transfer methods on wiredove. it's super cool. it doesn't always work because punching thru NAT is a pain, but when it does work it's awesome. Trystero is also cool if you want to hook up a webcam

    I'm so confused. Isn't this the same administration that launched project warpspeed to develop and spread these vaccines back in 2020?

    The specific attack is not being highlighted in this article. Are we worried about keypairs being stolen and used to push malicious messages to the network? Lightning wallets emptied? Direct messages being read?

    > Most humans are not interested in spending the time or learning the skills to do this[...] Well, this is exactly my point. ATProto's infrastructure is too hard for most humans, and that is the reason for the centralization complai

    Yes, and running these things is prohibitively difficult such as I've only witnessed two full index attempts and no alternative plc directories. Bluesky should make these easier so your average Linux admin can attempt to host the full

    The PDSes (personal data servers) can be independantly hosted, but Bluesky itself indexes and presents the messages these servers contain in their social-app. Bluesky also maintains the directory of these servers.

    Throw a short LLM summary in there also, that will mask the content and also give everyone an idea of what the message contains without revealing the message contents until it's sent.
