Something that I keep thinking about is spec driven design.
If, for code, there is a parallel "state" document with the intent behind each line of code, each function
And in conjunction that state document is connected to a "higher layer of abstraction" document (recursively up as needed) to tie in higher layers of intent
Such a thing would make it easier to surface weird behavior imo, alongside general "spec driven design" perks. More human readable = more eyes, and potential for automated LLM analysis too.
I'm not sure it'd be _Perfect_, but I think it'd be loads better than what we've got now
Sacrifice and service is meaningful because it was chosen. If we create something that'll willingly sacrifice itself, did it truly make an independent choice?
There's less suffering, sure. But if I were in their shoes I'd want to have a choice. To be manipulated into wanting something so very obviously and directly bad for us doesn't feel great
I also feel repelled by such manipulation; unfortunately, the more we learn about oursleves, the harder it is to ignore that we ourselves are meat puppets and the puppeteer is evolution itself.
we use front door (as does miccrosoft.com) and our website was down, I was able to change the DNS records to point directly to our server and will leave it like that for a few hours until everything is green
On our end, our VMs are still working, so our gitlab instance is still up. Our services using Azure App Services are available through their provided url. However, Front Door is failing to resolve any domains that it was responsible for.
Oh I love this oh so much. It lines up with a lot of things I've wanted or am planning. So I'm definitely going to take a dive into your source for inspiration
One thing I wish for encompasses the idea that I might want to share different slices of my life with different groups
I was looking for a "sharing idea" comment, so it's great to see something is planned.
Being able to share a time-based, geo-based, or X-based slice (all or some of) with someone would be a great way to learn about "close encounters" before or after we met, or even someone else's perspective of a shared trip or experience.
Just a general comment; you've made something truly wonderful (IMHO), and I look forward to seeing where you take this.
It sounds like different levels of influence/control/responsibility to me.
Fancy validator selection sounds like the individual financial institutions are still responsible for managing and maintaining their nodes, which gives them a fair (as in balanced not fair as in a lot) amount of liability/responsibility/control.
A distributed database, afaik, while geographically distributed, entails more centralization of power/control.
Super cool! I'm excited to explore it as an excalidraw alternative for a lot of the diagrams I make.
Some initial notes:
- On the very first initial load, ~~there's no default tool selected~~ it selects the 'hand' tool in the bottom left, which hides the cursor. It seems to select the pointer tool after a refresh. I'm able to replicate in an incognito browser or by clearing site data. After scanning your documents, it appears its touchscreen related. My guess is that it got confused because I'm using one of the ASUS Duo laptops.
- I personally think it makes more sense to start docs on "What is Context" (on the documentation drawer), but that's a matter of opinion. The sandwich icon isn't as obvious as I'd like though, and it'd be nice to have a link to the next page at the bottom of every article.
- my initial thought from the sequence diagrams panel was that I could type to generate an initial image, then drag that into my canvas for position changes.
- this actually makes me think about mermaid's rendering engine, and how hard it would be to support moving and "pinning" an element, such that further diagram changes need to work around the pinned elements.
Thank you so much for the support! It really means a lot to me. And I can't wait to hear about what you're building. Feel free to DM me and Discord when the time comes :)
