I hope this doesn't sound too snarky, but as far as I know, the WHATWG standard is live, consistent and always up to date (including corrections), while the W3C recommendations are outdated snapshots of the WHATWG standard, which are l

Curious question: Is there also something like Mobx [1] for Python? I'd love to have a reactive state libraries like Mobx on server-side. Mobx is also reactive, but has a different focus: It is not so much avout the low-level event dis

Why do wait so long? (Serious question. What use is the guarantee if your device is hacked? Will they pay indemnity if that happens during guarantee?)

If I remember correctly, mining farms (and data centers in general) are usually colocated to an energy source, i.e. a plant. Some of those plants are not fully stretched, because there's almost no civilization nearby, so delivering to

I wonder if we reach a point where not only nobody wants to buy that crap anymore, but components like ME will become illegal.

Ouch! Regulating infrastructure purely by market mechanisms is an ugly anti-pattern that is well-known for decades, if not centuries. Among others, this creates an incentive to keep the resource scarce and to not invest into maintaining and

Of course maintaining some kind of "libsodium for rust" is more work, but on the other hand, a central project for rust crypto stuff is highly desirable: Even if initially run by mere crypto enthusiasts, such a central place is ne

This is a surprisingly simple solution to the problem: Make the working "device" (3D printed object) do as little work as possible - just enough to be detectable by the surrounding devices that are "real" computers anyw

Is there something like "ring" for libsodium instead of BoringSSL? Also, does it really make sense to create a separate crate for every crypto primitive (or small set of primitives)? This has so many obvious disadvantages compared

Great project, I applaud the effort! Some curious questions: - Where exactly does "zero-knowledge" play a role here? Does this provide steganography? Or, what is meant? - Why do they use libsodium (excellent choice, but C) instead
