    1. Ce qui ne parvient pas à pénétrer dans la tête des gens bombardés par les mauvaises nouvelles de la mutation écologique, c’est l’activité, l’autonomie, la sensibilité à nos actions, des matériaux qui composent les zones critiques où nous résidons to

      Auch hier geht es um die Frage, warum fast niemand auf die öklogischen Bedrohungen reagiert. Die Antwort kann man auch so formulieren: Weil es sich dabei um bl0ß materielle, natürliche Dinge handelt, um de wir uns nicht zu kümmern brauchen. Dass sie als „Natur“ verstanden werden, bedeutet, dass sie keine „matters of concern“ sein können.

    2. Si nous étions dans une situation normale, la plus petite alerte concernant l’état de la Terre et de ses boucles de rétroaction, nous aurait déjà mobilisés, comme nous le faisons pour toute question d’identité, de sécurité ou de propriété.

      Die Frage Latours ist hier: Warum sind die ökologischen Probleme keine „matters of concern“? Die Antwort, die er gibt, ist, dass die Erde historisch zur bloßen Materie ohne eigene Handlungsmacht reduziert wurde. Die Erde ist damit aus der Politik verschwunden, sie wurde entpolitisiert. Eine ökologische Politik ist damit umgekehrt an eine Politisierung der Erde gekoppelt, nicht aus Nostalgie, sondern weil handelnde politische Einheiten nur so definiert oder formatiert werden können, wenn sie die Prozesse in der kritischen Zone nicht ignorieren sollen.

    1. An Authentication Service (AS) that enables group members to authenticate the credentials presented by other group members.

      This is weird. It's meant to be a p2p design, yet it relies on a CA to approve you. It's a single point of failure. May be corrupt.

    2. If a member finds that another member's credential has expired, they may issue a Remove that removes that member.

      That is strange. You need to periodically pop online to renew credentials or you're kicked out.

    1. The Delivery Service cannot guarantee that application messages won't be dropped within the same epoch. To address this, applications can configure the maximum_forward_distance parameter of the SenderRatchetConfiguration. The configuration can be set as the sender_ratchet_configuration parameter of the MlsGroupCreateConfig
    2. The Delivery Service cannot guarantee that application messages will arrive in order within the same epoch. To address this, applications can configure the out_of_order_tolerance parameter of the SenderRatchetConfiguration. The configuration can be set as the sender_ratchet_configuration parameter of the MlsGroupCreateConfig
    3. The Delivery Service cannot guarantee that application messages from one epoch are sent before the beginning of the next epoch. To address this, applications can configure their groups to keep the necessary key material around for past epochs by setting the max_past_epochs field in the MlsGroupCreateConfig to the desired number of epochs

      This is not reliable, no certain knowledge that any further messages won't come.

    1. The master key may also be used to sign other items such as the backup key

      Given her master key is compromised (and that is the case when she'd like to rotate) nothing stops the compromised to issue and sign a new backup key.

      Better: use pre-rotation of KERI.

    2. a master key (MSK) that serves as the user’s identity in cross-signing and signs their other cross-signing keys

      Is a point of failure / weakest link in this chain - compomise of one key is enough to compromise Alice's identity.

      Also, requires it to be replicated across her divecise, if she wishes to add new device from any device.

    1. An escrow cache of unverified out-of-order event provides an opportunity for malicious at-tackers to send forged event that may fill up the cache as a type of denial of service attack. Forthis reason escrow caches are typically FIFO (first-in-first-out) where older events are flushed tomake room for newer events.

      This may misfire, when there's a ton of valid events to sync, whose amount is greater than the cache limit.

      May happen when adding a new witness, requiring to sync the entire history. (do we need to provide it the entire history though? only the last not-yet-verified events are of interest for the controller to be signed by the witness)

    1. Alternatively, a simple public key canserve as an identifier, eliminating the DID/DIDDoc abstraction2

      This would require having private key portable. Which is not secure.

    1. Finality: A p-block consumes a non-p-block b′ with a payment to p only if r approves b′.

      Would be nice to have finality optional. As to not incur round-trip to a possibly offline r. Double-spends will be detected and punished. Given the value of double-spend spend is less than a cost - no incentive to do so.

    2. The black agent mints a black coin, increasing its balance from 3 to 4 coins

      Why to capture 4? Ops like burn(10), mint(1) do the same, yet being more semantic, as they convey what happens, rather than the result.

      E.g., when green has 3 green_coins, and we see send(1, green_coin, (to) black), send(3, green_coins, (to) green) did green just miscalculated his balance (should be 2), or did he sent and minted one at the same time?

    3. C

      That looks messy, accidentally so, it seems.

      1. Green agent only needs to REDEEM(green_coin) op to convey what he wants.

      2. Self-payments are redundant.

      3. Links other than self-parent and other-parent(s) are redundant. You can derive anybody's balance out of their self-parent chain.

      3.1 Other-parent_s_ make the order of received messages ambiguous.

      1. REPAY is redundant. When REDEEM is received, and given one can indeed redeem (recepient has his coin at the moment of receival) - the REDEEM should be automatic. I.e., plainly observing that REDEEM been accepted by recepient is enough to derive out of it one of 1) it's a suffessfull redeem 2) it's a failed redeem.
    4. Agree to redeem any domestic coin issued in return for any foreign coin held. Forexample, Alice must agree to a request by Bob to redeem an Alice-coin Bob holds against any coin heldby Alice.

      The device of Alice may be offline, e.g., smartphone discharged. We can't assume constant connectivity.

    1. For each wave, one of the miners is elected as the leader, and if the first round of thewave has a block produced by the leader, then it is the leader block.

      What happens when many users are offline?

      (depends how many, if there's not enough to form supermajority - no messages will be created at all)

      If there's say 1/3, then I guess it'll be 1/3 of fail-to-select-a-leader attempt.

      Also, members could have different stake. Then there may be say 1/5 members that hold supermajority stake, they're online, but the rest 4/5 is not. Then, I guess, there'll be 4/5 failed-to-select-a-leader attempts, on average.

    1. Why should this conversation be separate from other conversations about the work to be done? Design is one consideration alongside frontend and backend considerations, which often all intersect and require the same participants. Shifting this discussion to a separate work item can result in disjointed conversations and difficulty finding where a decision was made.

    1. I took the same approach with _layout.svelte and not just for the svelte-apollo client. Except I put all of that setup into another module (setup.js) and imported from _layout. I just couldn't stomach having all that code actually in my _layout file. It's for layout, supposedly, but it's the only component that is a parent to the whole app.
    1. The RFC is more appropriate because it does not allow a parent to abritrarily control anything below it, that responsibility still relies on the component itself. Just because people have been passing classes round and overriding child styles for years doesn't mean it is a good choice and isn't something we wnat to encourage.
    2. margin, flex, position, left, right, top, bottom, width, height, align-self, justify-self among other is CSS properties that should never be modified by the child itself. The parent should always have control of those properties, which is the whole reason I'm asking for this.
    1. The more I think about this, the more I think that maybe React already has the right solution to this particular issue, and we're tying ourselves in knots trying to avoid unnecessary re-rendering. Basically, this JSX... <Foo {...a} b={1} {...c} d={2}/> ...translates to this JS: React.createElement(Foo, _extends({}, a, { b: 1 }, c, { d: 2 })); If we did the same thing (i.e. bail out of the optimisation allowed by knowing the attribute names ahead of time), our lives would get a lot simpler, and the performance characteristics would be pretty similar in all but somewhat contrived scenarios, I think. (It'll still be faster than React, anyway!)
    1. Often, allowing the parents to compose elements to be passed into components can offer the flexibility needed to solve this problem. If a component wants to have direct control over every aspect of a component, then it should probably own the markup as well, not just the styles. Svelte's slot API makes this possible. You can still get the benefits of abstracting certain logic, markup, and styles into a component, but, the parent can take responsibility for some of that markup, including the styling, and pass it through. This is possible today.

    1. Whether or not you find the use case for JavaScript unit tests compelling, it helps to know that Webpacker does not make any distinction between your development and test environments beyond the settings in your webpacker.yml; both are local concerns that target the same runtime, i.e., the browser.

    1. Although there were some patenting and licensing concerns with GraphQL, these have been resolved to our satisfaction by the relicensing of the reference implementations under MIT, and the use of the OWF license for the GraphQL specification.

    1. Basically, the attackers don't actually have video of you or access to your contacts, and they haven't been able to install malicious code on your computer. In reality, they're taking a password from a database that's available online, sending it to you, and hoping you're scared enough to believe their story and send them bitcoin.
    1. It is not the browser's responsibility to auto-login to websites. This is the responsibility of the website you are accessing. The browser can remember form data and auto-fill for you, as can various extensions like LastPass.

    1. I was so fed up of the mega amounts of boilerplate with Redux and the recommendation of keeping your data loading at view level. It seems to me that things like this, with components being responsible for their own data, is the way to go in the future.

    1. We do not help everyone equally—some people just seem to be more worthy of help than others. Our cognitions about people in need matter as do our emotions toward them.

      *Social experiment*: Our cognitive perception of others ha s an effect on whether we decide to help or not.
