@deadparrot we will have the problem until we switch to content-addressable infrastructure everywhere.

@rauschma thank you for the good article that highlights the problems! I actively work on the problem (data and identity ownership) with my team. We decided to build from scratch and solve the fundamental flaws in social digital interaction. There are several fundamental rules on which our work is based: 1. Content-addressable. 2. DiD 3. Relative friendly names (everyone is a root).

Or, like this `"Hello!"n`. With the suffix `n`, consistent with `bigint` number literals.

Just an idea for the future ECMAScript proposal: UTF8 literal. The literal should have the prefix `u`. For example, `u"Hello!". The literal automatically converted into `bigint`. For example, `u"Hello"` will be converted into 0x1_6F_6C_6C_65_48n. LSB first, the most significant byte is 1 as a terminal symbol. The `===` will work, but ordering (<,>) is not lexicographic. The good thing about this literal is that there is no need to change a JavaScript VM, only its parser. #JavasScript #utf8 #ecmascript

@rauschma I'm looking forward to it! And I'm very excited that this subject has attention.

@rauschma I apologize for my radical opinion, but fediverse may not have a future. The future is content-addressable infrastructure with decentralized identities and relative names. https://medium.com/@sergeyshandar/what-the-heck-is-content-addressable-internet-55963c328b68?sk=8318fbdfd212c893afc8f452c603eb6c

Dear friends, I'm just moving all my Medium articles to behind the paywall. Let me know if you need URLs without a paywall. https://medium.com/@sergeyshandar

Elliptic curves on FunctionalScript. Including Secp256k1, which is used in Bitcoin. https://github.com/functionalscript/functionalscript/blob/main/secp/test.f.cjs#L45 #elliptic_curve #elliptic_curve_cryptography #PublicKeyCryptography

BTW, `bitint` is one of the things that I would like to have in JSON.

I may skip adding `Uint8Array` and other typed arrays because `bigint` is a good enough representation of a sequence of bits. #javascript #ecmascript #bigint #typedarray

@FearTheCowboy Wikipedia is one of the few media in which time is not wasted. I mean, compare it to everything else.

Now the functionalscript/html module recognizes void elements at run-time: https://github.com/functionalscript/functionalscript/pull/280/files#diff-455482d2c63fb17913906d003fabb67dc33b9e7784882fe887ce0162e8f0248e

@rauschma I remember it because 'c.map(f).flat()' is equal to 'c.flatMap(f)'.

Innovation is only progressive if it raises society's median well-being without harming significant groups. Otherwise, it's simply regress and degradation. #progress #innovation #society #ai

I'm changing FunctionalScript's license from MIT to AGPL. The last version of FunctionalScript, with the MIT license, was 0.0.559. https://github.com/functionalscript/functionalscript/pull/279 #functionalscript #license

@european_alternatives, It's a good time to get talented engineers and scientistits from the USA. Don't miss it!

I noticed that there has always been at least one point in the past when I significantly changed my opinion about a public figure. These things are so low that they can't be hidden or excused by media and show the person's real nature. For putin, it was "Dima Yakovlev law". For Mask, it was "Pedo guy". For Trump, it was "Mocking of a disabled journalist".
