This seems incredibly interesting, but the idea of a ‘general purpose syncing service’, in the way he describes it, makes my head scream’security concern’. In general the way it’s described the format is not fixed for these services so your data might as well be encrypted in any arbitrary way I think?

But knowing this wouldn’t this kind of general purpose syncing service need some way of identifying what data it is even syncing? Unless you encooperate something grand like the signal protocol (as in encrypted anonymous messaging) you d always run a security risk if the service you use for syncing is not self-controlled?

If anyone has more insight on this I’d be very interested, it seems like a very good concept.

It sounds to me like anything other than p2p local syncing with some protocol is a confidentiality no-go.

Absolutely general purpose. In the most simple terms, email, password hash, and a bit of metadata

The heroes by Joe Abercrombie By all means not a nieche author. Goddamn he makes the fights seem so tense and exciting, with just enough involvement/information for you to not pick sides before the fight happens, but still be very excited about the outcome.

I would be very worried if this was ‘final, and now we will do it as written’ but it seems to be just another iteration.the critique is great and I just hope they listen.

I am not shocked, but i’d save disappointed for when they try to do it and noone uses it because of these reasons.

I work in IT, so a desk job with almost no movement. If I wasn’t doing sports I’d be crashing hard as well.

I always feel like, if someone with a sporty routine (lets say gym once or twice a week for 2h) stops doing sports for a longer period of time (2 weeks) they will feel generally pissed. But it never feels like sports are the reason. Then you do sports again and suddenly feel much better, at which point you face palm and think ‘of course!’.

And it feels like that every fucking time. It’s stupid but knowing it helps.

Oohhh OK, now I get it. I was missing that ‘bowl’ is short for bowling.

Non native so maybe it just gets lost, but I don’t get it?

Is the error that the possessive ‘s is missing at ‘dogs’ ? If so, then its plural… I don’t get it ^^’
