To be clear I am not a wallclock hater. I've used it too and it's fine for like 99% of situations (if not more)

What's a clock drift? About 50 milliseconds. 🤣

Lamport timestamps? Merkle Clocks? ha ha I think you mean `Date.now()`.

What's a clock drift??

HLCs get a pass.

wallclock based yolo conflict resolution is the powerhouse of the decentralized system.

BTW I got a shittier (and cheaper!) version of this so I'll see if I can make any progress on it.

15. Since I am insatiable I'm thinking about replacing my GPD Win 4 with a Framework 13 mainboard case and a bunch of peripherals: https://www.printables.com/model/1051364-framework-13-mainboard-case-with-battery

Ideally I'd need to remix this to add places for straps to attach.

@fabrice.capyloon.org I hope we get it eventually!

@fabrice.capyloon.org Boggles my mind that streaming (and often binary data) isn't priority number one for all APIs that deal with data. Probably the webcrypto stuff was more motivated by stuff like JWT or some corpo auth scheme than encrypted files though

Hopefully this meetup will accept my proposal for a WebCrypto talk some time this summer so I can show folks how fun it is.

I've been keeping a log of cool links I've found on the web: https://blog.mauve.moe/posts/links

Once I figure out my gemini hosting setup I'll have them up on there too 😸

@fabrice.capyloon.org What's missing?

I think it's cool that web browsers have built in APIs for doing #cryptography stuff without needing to worry about pulling in dependencies.

Question for #nostr folks. Do you pronounce it "no-ster" or "naw-ster"? Or some secret third thing. I've been reading this for years but haven't listened to anyone saying it outloud.
