It resonated with me!

This clearly isn't true for eg a single-member LLC, and likely not true in general.

I expect them to give a shit, yeah. Just like they should care about what they read or watch, or who they hang out with.

Don't let your kids have an internet-connected phone, or keep it locked down so they don't have parasitic apps preying on their pre-frontal immaturity until they're old enough to handle it.

All of this needs to be done intentionally, of course, or it will feel like the kids are being punished. But I can't emphasize this enough... it's our job as parents to raise our kids.

Sure! With my kids it's meant not buying them internet-enabled devices (or disabling the internet access, eg smart TVs), only having 1 family computer in a shared space, and managing my own local network. There also aren't screens in the house through the week.

On the flip side, I let them read whatever they want, including things that are upsetting or that other parents would say aren't appropriate, and I talk to them about what they've read.

Overall, I think these policies have meant more thoughtful media consumption, and more time outside and with friends. I'm not enough of a fool to think our rules are enforced at friends' houses, but we've chosen to live in a community that's largely on the same page.

None of this stuff is easy, but as a parent, it's the job.

Or perhaps we should expect parents to take some responsibility for their kids' screen use?

By that logic, from my perspective - your family life, as we're practicing it today, it a car without a steering wheel.

The church down the street from me, that I have nothing to do with, is a car without a steering wheel. My local town, of which I'm only 1 member, is a car without a steering wheel.

Just because you see a system that you don't understand or control doesn't mean it's dangerous. The first instinct shouldn't be to centralize power.

Hi! As someone who has historically built on libp2p, I'd love to see an updated comparison focused on app developers!

Last year, I was trying to choose between the two and went with that I know... but it feels like there's real momentum on Iroh's side.

My understanding - "insider trading" is specifically for securities, and brought by the SEC. The equivalent for commodities is called "market manipulation", brought by the CFTC. Market manipulation is a much harder thing to prove than insider trading.

This kind of reminds me of the OpenSea "insider trading" scandal. [0]

Not a lawyer, not legal advice, etc.

If you're not shipping faster, it's meaningless, and if you are, it's also bad?

> if they saw me romanticizing the Mondragon cooperatives in Spain?

Speaking for myself, I'd find that very interesting! I just stumbled over an article about it a few days ago, and don't think it's weird that different parts of the world would be interested in a regional business phenomenon.

If they use the system keyring, it depends on the OS and other details - MacOS, Linux, and Windows all have different implementation tradeoffs.

When something is "realized" is a matter of accounting. It means to make the change, they sold the gold fo currrency, then bought it back. For many of us, realizing a gain is when taxes happen, though I'm not sure what it means for a nation state.

If I'm not mistaken, this was Socrates' exact perspective on writing.

Here are a couple examples of physical access leading to key extraction. You're welcome to be pedantic (those are side channel attacks, they don't defeat the boundary!) but one way or another, physical access wins.

Again and again, we've seen that HSMs aren't secure against physical access of the device.

CRDTs let you avoid leader election / strict consensus. The canonical example is a google doc with multiple editors.
