Oh I see what you mean. Point only was the therapy notes aren't guaranteed to be private. Right now there are pretty good legal protections. But as another matter, laws or their enforcement can change.

I'm pessimistic, so I constantly get pleasant surprises when things turn out better than I expect. It's nice.

There's a story about Isaac Asimov's mother Anna Asimov. It's in one of Isaac's many autobiographies. Anna and her husband Judah Asimov immigrated to the US from Russia around 1920 and worked very hard operating a candy store in New York while raising Isaac and his siblings. Isaac eventually became a famous author. After Isaac's parents were finally able to retire, Anna (still with her Russian accent and not-so-great English after all those years) decided to take a creative writing class at the local college. The stories she handed in had grammar and spelling errors like you'd expect, but they had inventive plots, interesting characters, and so on.

At the end of the semester, the instructor complimented her on her work, and asked her if she was related to Isaac Asimov, who by then was quite well known. "Yes, he is my dear son", she replied. "Oh! No wonder you're such a good writer", the instructor said. "Ha!", responded Anna. "You mean, no wonder he is such a good writer."

Anyway, it's never too late. I'll see myself out.

Can they rename the browser to Fireslop?

Nothing is automatically getting sent to like a government database, if that’s what you’re concerned about (at least, not in the USA - but I assume/hope it’s similar in most places?).

Watch a few fast.ai videos and boom, you're an AI researcher making millions.

I've read the article again and am still in a state of confusion. I'll see if I can get through the spec. But there are a ton of unanswered questions that I think could have been cleared up concisely.

Thanks. I'll look and post comments later if you want them.

I'll see if I can read the post but when I tried this morning, it was way too long. I'll look at the specification. I've been involved in crypto implementation since forever, which is why this looked interesting. But I think the client side also has to be figured out, if it hasn't been yet.

I'll take a look when I get a chance, but like you said, it's a public key directory. I thought you were claiming to have a solution to client side keys. Is there trouble with using some existing PK directory scheme?

5 dimensions, better than general relativity but still a long way behind string theory. Better keep at it.

Don't bother with any of those in-your-head translations. Just erase the English from your brain and speak Polish directly. If you forget a word, look it up if you have to, then use it. After you've used it a few times, it will stick. Polish is pretty hard though, from what I can tell. Even Hungarian is easier.
