I don't think DHTs are the right direction for small data. You're better off spraying the same records across many databases, like nostr relays. This gives you more redundancy, and the implementation is simpler. I think you could even use nostr events by first signing the message with the stronger algorithm, including this in an attribute, then signing the usual way. Even if it becomes possible to forge the outer signature, you can use the old algorithm to find potential events and then filter out those that don't have valid new signatures.
I'm also not concerned about quantum cryptography. So far it seems to be a great way to attract funding and scare cryptologists, but practical advances have been limited. It may be more useful as a tactic to scare people into using unproven, less secure alternatives rather than those that are actually secure today.

ChatGPT says:
> Apple’s Developer Program License Agreement, specifically Section 3.3.2, states:
“An Application may not download or install executable code. Interpreted code may only be used in an Application if all scripts, code, and interpreters are packaged in the Application and not downloaded. The only exception to the foregoing is scripts and code downloaded and run by Apple’s built-in WebKit framework or JavaScriptCore, provided that such scripts and code do not change the primary purpose of the Application by providing features or functionality that are inconsistent with the intended and advertised purpose of the Application as submitted to the App Store.”

It always starts off great. Then you realize that:
- landscape layout sucks
- app manifest caching is broken
- ... only on certain platforms
- people are stuck on an old version
- or they just want to use the app right now instead of updating
- or their connection was unstable on update and now they have half old and have new assets
- some basic API isn't available
- or is available but has different options than the normal API
- or different bugs
- and things behave differently when installed as a PWA vs a web page
- etc
This isn't a criticism of jumble.social as I haven't used it. I've long advocated for PWAs and web first, but... it's way harder than it needs to be

I understand the perspective. For a long time getting an LLM to arrive at the right answer took a lot of coaxing and hand holding. I kept doing it because I'm interested in technology and prefer to collect my own data rather than have people tell me what's real. Claude 3.0 Opus was the first to turn the corner of being obviously able to reason about things. It still got a lot wrong, but it was a level above the other models.
Since then, things have gotten better quickly. What used to spit out "intern" level code can now perform at senior+ developer levels when provided the right context and interfaces. That's a big jump in one year. Keeping a similar pace, by next year they will outperform all humans at writing software.
Will they be human? Of course not. But now is the time to figure out how to integrate these new calculators into our lives

For a stochastic parrot to count to one trillion, it must explicitly train on the entire sequence of numbers. And to count backwards, it must also train on the reverse sequence of numbers. To do math, it must train on every permutation of every equation that it hopes to solve. There is essentially an infinite number of permutations that we expect grade school kids to solve.
No one is training LLMs like this: the hidden layers are somehow generalizing answers, not stochastically reciting them

There's no such thing as "ASIC resistence". The idea was first popularized by scrypt, but it turns out you can also add a lot of RAM to an ASIC. A few GB isn't even that much anymore.
