I ain't quoting that NYT piece because I'm sure it is all over your timeline as is But try and imagine how draining it is to have the Supreme Court rip away your basic rights and then the most prominent paper in the country going DAMN WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO YOURSELF after years of stoking hate

📝 new blog post! i spent a while looking into homomorphically encrypted CRDTs. spoiler alert: they don’t work super well! (but you should still check it out — i break down what homomorphic encryption is and how it works, and there are lots of explorable explanations along the way!)

I'm pretty excited about @inkandswitch.com's Keyhive project, and I really wanted to feel solid on the novel key management approach they use called BeeKEM - so I wrote this explainer article about it! Tysm to @expede.wtf for helping me make some sense of you and the team's work ✨

I’ve seen a lot of hand wringing about the dangers of going to No Kings protests and gently, I want to tell people to chill a little. These are permitted marches and the point is to be out there and seen en masse. Please don’t scare off people who are maybe going to their very first protest

100% THIS Much can be said re protocol evolution, but this happens repeatedly. The path of least resistance is why tech trend towards centralisation & impossible to build every feature up front. No silver bullets, but excited for local-first & malleable software to make it less of a one-way door

New longform @inkandswitch.com essay! 📜 Malleable Software: Restoring user agency in a world of locked-down apps by me, @joshuahhh.com, @pvh.ca and @seaofclouds.com inkandswitch.com/essay/mallea... It's about why people need agency over their software tools, and how to make that happen.

"Look, if you give people homes, the next thing you know, they’re going to start to get their lives together and then get jobs and start organizing. Then they’ll expand Medicare to everyone and build a fucking light rail line instead of a border wall."

🪡🌸✨ Finished my first "real" embroidery project a couple weeks ago. It took *forever* because I'm still just learning, but pretty happy with how it turned out :)

Remember how all the cyber security people said not to backdoor end-to-end encryption? That sensitive data should be encrypted in transit AND at rest?

You know, Pride Month is one of those things that a lot of people have sort of taken for granted lately, but I feel like next month is going to be the sort of wild, unhinged Pride Month that we really need. A lot of people have forgotten our roots, and we're being forced to remember.
