Logging is stateful, though the state usually isn't observable via HTTP requests. Of course the same is true of the light bulb, unless another API is provided to read its status, and a similar API could be provided for the log files. O

You can easily publish a snapshot of a bare Git repository on IPFS[0], and there are front-ends like git-remote-ipfs[1] which integrate IPFS into the Git workflow. The difficulty is that this only gets you a single snapshot . Any change to

Not the GP, but I would at least agree that the C library should not be handling domain name resolution or requiring any dynamically-loaded plugins. However, I am strongly opposed to having each application implement its own resolver and ig

You're describing one particular kind of (high-end) e-bike. Many perfectly legal, unmodified e-bikes do not have torque sensors. If the bike has a cadence sensor, like mine does, then it doesn't care about how much torque you'
