This was my first adult pop-sci read. A little bit thick but after middle-school me read one crazy science book I went on a tear: Richard Dawkins, Steven Pinker, Dan Dennett, Hofstader, and never really stopped. Fun to wake up and see it on

It's also a structural argument. I'm trying to think how to rephrase. Maybe the first question to ask is: are there enough wealthy powerful people who look after their own selfish interests in the political sphere, to tilt the pla

What do you think about IETF-JOSE? I've been using it as sort of a cookbook for signing and encryption. They even have a cookbook: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-jose-cookbook/

Maybe the clock is ticking because thier large production deployments are migrating to other tech? At least we are seeing plenty of folks who realize that a query API on top of mmap isn't really a database. :) One high profile migratio
