I made a website that lets you use ranked choice voting in a mock UK General Election to explain how it works.
  • Awesome, ya that's a reasonable path, if you want to skip the manual review, you could use TLSNotary or ZKEmail (proof of email) to verify/validate TLS sessions or emails (basically checks that the email was validly signed by the email server from a sender, and you can selectively reveal that the person for example, paid a utility bill in London)

  • I made a website that lets you use ranked choice voting in a mock UK General Election to explain how it works.
  • This is great, we need more of this. Now you just need TLSNotary for someone to be able to prove they have citizenship/are allowed to vote in that election.

  • Name this monstrosity
  • That's a t80

  • Julian Assange leaves UK after being freed in US plea deal - BBC News
  • I hope he goes home and takes it easy, he did enough

  • me_irl
  • Lol gross

  • Is there a way to keep Linux responsive when at ~100% CPU usage?
  • Yep, CPU scheduler is the correct answer. Id recommend reading this arch wiki on it. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/improving_performance

  • Decentralized chat in javascript
  • Hey I'm very interested in new chat protocols/methods/paradigms. I wrote an anonymous chat app called Discreetly in the fall to experiment with anonymous groups and interactions.

    Want to DM me? Would love to get on a call

  • The upside-down American flag goes mainstream as a form of right-wing protest
  • That's correct, some still find it disrespectful though.

  • What is Farcaster, and why did it raise 150M USD?
  • Ok, we are talking in circles, you have your opinions, I have mine. If you want to talk about this over voice at any point, let me know, I don't think text is going to get anywhere, and Lemmy has a pretty strong bias against crypto (which I understand, but obviously disagree with)

  • Aquaponics For Urban Living 🐟🌱🏙️
  • Ya you should always have at least 2 stages of animals/plants between any feed/nutrient cycle or you risk disease and build up of things like sodium

  • What is Farcaster, and why did it raise 150M USD?
  • Which is a whole lot of extra engineering that is already taken care of with a blockchain. Whether social networks should forget your username/registration is a different debate.

  • What is Farcaster, and why did it raise 150M USD?
  • But there's no global consensus, it's not trustless, and smart contracts unlock a lot of additional composable capabilities.

  • What is Farcaster, and why did it raise 150M USD?
  • I understand, don't get me wrong, 99% of stuff in crypto is hot garbage, but having a global database that isn't controlled by any one (or even dozen) entities is pretty powerful. The 2 guys that started farcaster could quit, or get hit by a bus, or decide it's not profitable enough and pivot, but at least you have control over your profile still. If reddit was decentralized more, they wouldn't be able to shut down their APIs for 3rd party clients.

    Trust me I understand the criticism of block chains, but if we want open source and the internet to thrive and not be controlled by companies, we need a global layer that is neutral.

  • TLS Notary is in alpha

    tlsnotary.org TLSNotary

    TLSNotary website

    It uses MPC and ZK to prove some data from a server (that uses TLS) is authentic given some request.

    One of the simple demos is proving you received a DM from someone on twitter, without sharing your session token or login credentials with the other party.

    Another idea is proving you know some exploit (think sql injection) without revealing how you did it.

    Or proving you purchased some item off a website so you can review it on a neutral platform (amazon reviews but without amazon being able to manipulate the votes)
