Preventing such attacks is one of the main reasons why custom hardware is required. For more info, search for "spoof" in this section of the whitepaper: https://whitepaper.worldcoi…

Each Orb has a private signing key that's generated + stored inside a secure element. For more info, search for "secure element" in the following sections of the whitepaper: https:…

All iris hashes are publicly saved, but not linked to wallets. Details here: https://worldcoin.org/how-it-works#crypto (Account Privacy section)

The wallet and iris hash are never linked. The privacy properties of a Worldcoin wallet are identical to an Ethereum wallet (i.e. pseudonymous until you doxx yourself). See https:/…

Worldcoin does not use your biometric information as a password or private key. It's used to distribute unique identifiers, one per person. The Orb can't be used to recover private…

emacs-jupyter

What do you suspect the "macs" is short for?

org-roam + org-babel + emacs-jupyter has been my default literate development environment for ~1 year. This package is a hugely welcome upgrade to org-roam-server, and I'm excited …

Has anyone seen something like this with a user-customizable recommendation engine? In the long run, I'd love to have one optimizing for something like "well-rounded education" ins…

There was a fantastic talk at JuliaCon 2020 about applied category theory in Julia: https://youtu.be/7zr2qnud4XM

I can confirm org-roam links + org-noter works well for linking ideas between PDFs. I haven't found anything better, and regularly demo this to friends. Related video demo: https:/…

I've used RoamResearch in small groups, and it works well. Just don't try to edit the same block simultaneously (last one wins). If anyone has successfully done something similar w…

There are a few projects that do this, but I think there's certainly room for more. I'd love to see one focused on using the Zettelkasten method. Here are three I'm aware of: Scima…
