Text with two indented, italicized paragraphs both starting with "In an emergency" in between three other paragraphs: Marc Stiegler has identified the root cause of the problem; our devices do not support aspects of sharing that we rely on in the physical world. These aspects can be illustrated with two stories. In an emergency, Marc asked me to park his car in my garage. I couldn’t do it, so I asked my neighbor to do it for me and told her to get the garage key from my son. I doubt that anyone would think twice about this story. The second story is in the computer domain. In an emergency, Marc asked me to copy a file from his computer to mine. I couldn’t do it, so I asked my neighbor to do it for me and told her to get access to my computer from my son. People often find this second story so preposterous that they laugh.

The Six Aspect of Sharing Figure 1 illustrates the six aspects of sharing that we rely on in the physical world. That text is around diagram with six images, text labels and arrows. Light blue arrows connect each of four in a right to left chain, and black arrows from the bottom left "Cross domain", extend to those. Another light blue arrow goes from an accountant, labeled "Accountable" to the right of the top four. The top four are, from right to left (in order of the arrows): - Recomposable. A hand giving keys to another waiting hand with a shadowy third hand perhaps giving the keys earlier. - Chained. The same image of two hands but without the third. - Attenuated. The same image of two hands. - Dynamic. A man in a suit and holding a briefcase running. The Cross domain image in the bottom left is an open gate in a possibly electrified fence like you might find around a farm field. Dynamic above a man in a suit running.

Relevant to agentic access control.

I was reminded of Alan Karp's & Marc Stiegler's litmus test for usable access control, and Marc's six aspects of sharing.

I want you to know if this keeps up I’m going to watch five hours of this male belly dancer instead of the news.

Also I want this mainstreamed.

Blast from the Past :-)

Build software better, together GitHub is where people build software. More than 150 million people use GitHub to discover, fork, and contribute to over 420 million projects.

Basically, close ALL of those existing methods github.com/topics/brows... before using that as an excuse imho. This is not a believable argument until fingerprinting is fixed, which it is not and never has been and its quite unlikely that it ever can or will be fixed anyway.

And what is the issue with dealing with many package.jsons ? its what nodejs and server side anyway does.
a `package-lock.json` or `shrinkwrap.json` includes all of them anyway, so you can download in parallel.

There is no good reason to not do that.

I know that they re-download, but that is the whole problem. That needs to be changed.

And the argument that finger printing users can happen based on package download timing - browsers could add artificial delays ...and the argument is a facade when browser fingerprinting is already trivial

why is it not reasonable?
After all people watch loads of high res videos and code is literally tiny and a lot of popular libraries get re-used across websites, so you wouldn't even need to re-download them.

why is it not reasonable? This makes zero sense to me.

I think it is absolutely reasonable

BUT ... nodejs/npm being such a vast ecosystem, it still works flawlessly for everything.

It really depends on people's personal choices whether they manouvered themselves into this mess or stayed out of it.

Not blaming anyone, the big tech marketing budget lead them there, but we can fix it 🙂

To be honest. We can thank browser spec folks for this mess.
Thank you ESM - when nobody needed it.

I still use and recommend "browserify" for everything. Commonjs solved all these problems a long time ago.

webpack started the devolution and ESM caused the deeper ecosystem fracturing 🤷

There is something more fundamentally broken here

I think what you describe is true, but it is still just one symptom. This all goes to the core of the capitalist USD based system.

Where or How do the ultra-wealthy PE's and bankers get the money in the first place? :-)

> Ultra-wealthy PE's and bankers buy politicians who promise not to tax them

Yes

> Politicians instead borrow from pension funds to pay for public infrastructure

hmm
Even if politicians taxed the rich a lot, the scheme would still continue.

WHY/HOW can "PE's & bankers do it in the first place?

That is how they can afford to keep us all payrolled to work 40h a week for what they want and it is also how they buy the lion share of the means of production.

This is the USD System. It is capitalism.

These are the obvious facts, but the deeper question is why things are this way and why do banks and regulations support this and is there even anything that can be done about it?

It's **THE** essence of capitalism. They are the capitalists and this is their capitalist class privilege.

How do VC's make money from failed bullshit? Fee structure. Say you're a VC with a 20% carry if the venture succeeds.

You ALSO have a guaranteed management fee of 2% of AUM per year. So you create a $1B "Deep Tech" fund, that's $20M a year. These sci-fi projects take 10 years to fail. That's $200M.

VC and their Banksters gonna print money as long as they can. They won't stop unless we find a way to end money printing. They and their crooked politicians wont do it for us.

As long as we accept USD they will print. It's the capitalist's number one class privilege

Sounds more like you are looking for peer to peer technology rather than any flavour of fediverse.

One of the biggest Thatcherite myths is that Capitalism and a society with markets are the same thing.

David Graeber pointed out this is not historically true.

One of the many dat-ecosystem projects is the p2p keet messenger and the pear runtime devloped by the holepunch team who are well funded and maintain much of the hyper* stack. dat-ecosystem counts more than 2 dozen projects by now and is growing.

On the organisaiton side, dat was just an open source project and then later became a project under the CS&S (501c3 non-profit public good company). Then transition to OpenCollective Foundation for a while and now Apereo Foundation (501c3 non-profit publich good).

No. Dat has a lot of history.
It started 2013 as dat-data. It grew into dat-protocol and the basics of the hyper* stack. It became dat-projects later because many projects grew (including Beaker) and was then turned into dat-foundation. After more projects started it finally became dat-ecosystem

You don't need the page.

just `npm install -g pear`
and then `pear run pear://runtime` to learn.
you can also try out the p2p messenger keet via `pear run pear://keet` ...and developrand publish your own :-)

It's strange though that the page is blocked and i doubt they would do that. ask on keet
