There’s a lotta links to a lotta documents in this world, and this one is a few dozen pages longer than I can quickly peruse. Anything in it you want to highlight?

Very nice! Do you have any documentation for how to add another city or transit region? I work on some of the rust libraries you've used. If you'd like to ask questions about rust+geo or do a show & tell, consider joining us i

In some sense OSM is "just" the database — what things exist and where are those things. A mapping product like Google/Apple Maps includes a lot more functionality that often gets taken for granted. For instance: - A geocodi

Disabling RCS, which apparently is encrypted with the Signal protocol for G messaging, so that people can continue to comfortably use unencrypted comms (sms) in Signal messenger itself would be a really wild course of action. https:/&

To be honest, I haven't yet worked much with whitebox tools. But, to your point, I think pointing people to "next steps" is important, and guiding them to useful tools to solve their actual problems is part of that. If you ca

No, this is exactly the kind of thing registration lock is intended to address. If you enabled Registration Lock, your account cannot be hijacked by sms, provided you’ve been actively using your signal account within the last week. There’s

I should say though, I think your proposal makes sense as a way to minimize the impact of any individual checkpoint! Though you still have to occasionally support arbitrarily large WAL files to an extent because there’s no limit to how big

I think the idea is you only need 2 to achieve this new property of “avoiding unbounded growth”. You need the “one that is being written to” and the “other one which can be checkpointed into the main Db”. Reading between the lines a bit, I

SQLite has different “modes” to facilitate recovery, this new WAL2 mode addresses the problem in WAL (version 1) where the recovery log could potentially grow very large. It’s solving a real problem, but not considered stable for production

One example would be the lack of pragmatic rust native GUI libraries. There are wrappers for GTK and Qt, which are probably your best option. The most popular pure rust ones are based on somewhat esoteric patterns and seem prone to being ab

There's so much more state than just the encryption keys - e.g. Without a central source of state, you need to sync mutations to the state - actions like sends and deletes need to be communicated across devices. Suddenly you're in
