I'll vouch that EGreg isn't part of Holochain. I'm not either but it's one of the projects that I find most interesting in the distributed/decentralized computing space.

When you control the webview, you can establish fairly strong limits on where content and code can come from, same as with CSPs. Injection into the context really shouldn't be possible. You'd need to hit some kind of exploit such

Incidentally, so is Beaker browser's. We use lit-elements, which I like a lot.

I'm a personal friend of John's, so I'll just +1 this project. It's a pretty solid and simple invoicing tool. Quick form to produce the invoice from a template, sends the email with a pdf version attached, and then gives

Rik Arends has been working on a cross-platform IDE in Rust called Makepad [1]. It has a custom UI stack that targets wasm/webGL, osx/metal, windows/dx11, and linux/opengl. His premise (which is fairly ambitious) is to w

This debate centers around whether Facebook is a publisher or a carrier (like a phone service). There are some ways that Facebook inserts itself much more directly than a carrier would: 1) They control the feed algorithms. 2) They set polic

It's not a backdoor. Read the post, decide for yourself how you feel about it, but don't go off the headline.

You're getting questions about target market, and I'm pretty sure the answer is web development agencies, right? Any shop with a high volume of projects will need a development pipeline, stack, and ops story that is straight forwa

I'd wager it was the "Browse Faster" ad - which coming from Google is a tempting click. Just a small aside on the grandparents topic: my grandfather lost every dime to email scams in the late 90s. The man was a Westpoint grad

Not that software can't improve on this front, but I'm pretty sure that every engineering profession has its fair share of opinions and disagreements around them. Heck, my dad's a general surgeon and he's constantly deba

> Not just updates that you initiate yourself, though -- I think the idea is that any other app on the system could backdoor the JS in the ASAR at any time. That's pretty hard to defend against. Good point, but if the attacker has f

Discussion around the technical side isn't developer solipsism. It's part of the process for product design. Append-only logs do scale. Dat 2.0 uses a hash-trie structure inside its file metadata log to act as pointers for fast lo

The immutability argument makes a lot more sense once you detach presentation from content (json, markdown, style-free html). A presentation-free Web is basically a DB with immutability acting as its versioning system. IPFS/Dat make th

DHT perf, sybil resilience, and metadata exposure are weak points in p2p. There are ways to mitigate its necessity: SSB removes the DHT entirely and gossips data through a topology which users configure (on network or via manual setup). At

FWIW Dat is going to add "strong links" in the near future, which are links that include a version & content-hash for pinning to a specific version.
