My talk on End-to-end Encryption in Local-first Apps is available 🥳
In the talk I covered four key pillars:
- Sync
- Key Agreement
- Establishing Trust
- Identity
and for each I explained the why and how with examples and compared local-first frameworksCheckout https://www.youtube.com/live/s2pUguBxpLg?si=aLJ9SuS8IivDpRFv&t=69

So I made a #BearBlog.
It's called, Web 3.0 Slept With My Wife.
Why? I don't know, man. Why are you asking so many questions.
Anyway, I intend to write short notes about the future of the web. There's a first post up but it's probably not representative of the tone I'll carry through the rest of the way. I want to get weird. We'll see.

Before you boldly type that you have no sympathy for people who aren't getting out of the way of #HurricaneHelene , please remember that the Big Bend / Panhandle of Florida has effectively zero regional public transit.
People who can't drive (due to economics or disability) have already been abandoned en masse by #Florida's governments & US automobile-centric city "planning".
Don't harden your heart toward the many people—unsurprisingly, folks already marginalized—that #America has abandoned.

Anyway, I'm not interested in "beating" those social media giants. I think it's the wrong goal and will lead to the wrong conclusions and actions.

Also, I think we really underestimate the power of marketing and advertising. I don't know if it's because we're all swimming in it so much, or if it's because we all overestimate our ability to not be swayed by it (probably a little of both plus other things I'm missing), but marketing and advertising are power. To the extent you can wield them, you can wield power. Advertising doesn't always work as intended, but it's difficult to defeat something that wields it or has wielded it effectively.

When I hear people ask or wonder about how mastodon or the wider fediverse can "beat" Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc, it often feels to me like asking, "What will it take to make a better casino?"

So it was only a hundred years ago - 1924 - when someone figured out the Sun, and all the rest of the stars, were made mostly of hydrogen with some helium. All the other elements were in trace amounts.
She was a student at Harvard named Cecilia Payne.
At the time the consensus was stars were made up of pretty much what Earth was made of.
It took 4 more years for a man to confirm the discovery before it was widely accepted, with him as discoverer.
It's all hers now.

look, I get why y’all like the “supply chain” rhetoric, it helps you continue pretending that software security can be solved through capitalistic means
here’s the thing: I’ve run a manufacturing business before. I’m getting a second one going. Supply Chains are defined by an exchange of money for goods, with value-add steps in between. That’s it
Where’s the money, Lebowski?
Software packaging security is a social trust problem, which can’t actually be “solved” in a capitalist framework
