W3C Verifiable Credentials [1] does almost exactly what you suggested and was recently approved as a top-level W3C standard. Adoption has been sluggish outside of digital identity …

There is little reason to invent a completely new design system if your goal is to encourage brand recognition and prevent an operator from confusing tools. Apple/SwiftUI has accen…

They’ve possibly dug an even deeper hole now. None of their ISO 27001 certificates, aside from the premium one-offs with the vCISO, are accredited by any reputable ISO accreditatio…

The basic principle is to ensure that any machine/workload which joins the network (and processes customer data, in this case extremely sensitive PII) has a cryptographically verif…

Hetzner is great for dedicated servers, but for those of us who need smaller-scale secure/confidential VMs I'm afraid that there isn't really any other choice than hyperscalers. Do…

Have you? Financial crises have been more severe, longer, and more sustained since the introduction of central banking. Let us also not forget that the industrial revolution and th…

Sure, but ransomware is just extortion and that is a concept that has existed for time immemorial. I think ransomware is a relatively small part of the global volume of generalised…

>Buying drugs, money laundering, rampant speculation, rug pulls, fraud, high fees, inefficiency, horrible UX, irreversible SFYL, and destroying the climate. Every one of these char…

"The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that’s required to make it work. The central bank must be trusted not to debase the currency, but the history of fiat …

>From my point of view serfdom is the (block)chain. Only people with enough stake or those who pays are in control. I disagree with this but even if one assumes this to be the case…

>Furthermore, I take issue with the emphasis on "property damage" as property is fairly meaningless when you fear for your live or live paycheck-to-paycheck. America has an unhealt…

Completely ridiculous. If a major corporation in concordance with other entities bans speech that does toe the party line - that is quite literally fascism and something straight o…

Collateral is the wrong term, apologies for that - what I mean is that expanded bank reserves can be used to back an expansion of credit from the bank in question.

>The central bank have not power to stimulate the economy in this situation, that's the reason central bankers are pushing the governments to spend directly. Sounds very political …

It cannot be repaid, ever, because the interest exceeds the amount of money that is currently in existence, which means they will always have to borrow more money (which is created…

>The Fed has doubled (!) the number of assets on its balance sheet by creating new monetary instruments and using some of them to purchase financial assets like treasuries and mort…

Because they are pocketing the difference by arbitraging between the government (who issue the treasuries) and the Fed (who is the ultimate buyer) since the Fed cannot buy treasuri…

They are, the argument that the poster above you put forward is such a tired argument and I really do not understand why people are trying to hide the fact that the Fed is actually…

I hope I'm not the only one that finds this completely ridiculous. What right does the U.S. Federal Government have to prosecute people who aren't even operating within their juris…

I should qualify that I think the idea of private banks is perfectly fine. I agree that what we have right now is a quasi-governmental centrally planned banking system and that sho…
