I'm in the same boat, I spend a bit of my working day writing in Rust .. it's a great language but it's very cumbersome and I find it suffers form poor ergonomics, like it's annoying to type
I find it enjoyable to type for the most part. Explicit type casts aren't a treasure or anything, but then I think about why I am doing it and I can't really complain.
I feel you, but, my experience differs in the end I guess. To be fair turbofishes we're something I discovered by intuition, so maybe I'm a lost soul.
In a company owned headset, that measures your resting heart rate, blood pressure and eye movement with a dystopian sensor/camera setup to monitor your body language.
yeah for auth is a blockchain even required? it's pretty much just asymmetric crypto at that point isn't it?
I think the 'web3' way would make it worse wouldn't it? like metamask relying on centeralized service to query the blockchain
I guess a real benifit I could see would be being able to use a blockchain to revoke your keys somehow but that's not how metamask and web3 stuff seems to work right now
Indeed that is possible, the problem is all the greedy corporations that want to suck all our data, so they can't simply trust the signed messages of Metamask and want instead to implement layers of poor software for their profit
oh i mean, identity/authentication alone doesn't make profit right?
The problem with using PK cryptography is that if you lose your keys, you'd be locked out.
Then we would probably have other key schemes M-of-N etc or social proof to compensate for the problems with single-key PK, which then has other problems.
Metamask relies on whatever RPC you give it, including your own node if you want
The asym crypto is enough for proper authentication, but decentralized apps generally are built to use it, without relying on centralized data. A message signature being verified by a stateless service is all that is required
Could do without web3, but the practice of predatory web giants and smaller startups is to exploit the users so they don't do that
They were identified so strongly with the box that in the later stages of the company they actually changed their logo from the gold letter "G" to the cow box itself. So the computer came in a cow box, and there was a cow box in isometric perspective on the computer.
Right, because every case like that is going to be written about in an article that gets shared a ton because it is so shocking, and then covered on the news, and discussed on forums, and turned into a TV movie.
The story is crazy and scary and disturbed, so of COURSE it is going to be shared and people are going to remember it. The details get seared into your memory. It is a nightmare scenario.
The same day that happened, in the US ~90 people were killed in car accidents and ~550 kids were kidnapped by a family member. Those events won't be seared in our mind, though.
