anyone have a copy of the pdf-to-office malicious package? I want to see how lavamoat would have handled it

First, solve a real problem, don't use it as a smart contract interface to your product. Protocols solve, coordination, data, access, infrastructure.

.NET Conf - Focus on Modernization: Day 1 YouTube video by dotnet

I'm LIVE streaming on the @dot.net youtube with McKenna and Chet now talking about .NET Modernization. Free conference, LIVE all day www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwmD...

Too much abstraction and complexity leads to many specialist products that lock in users, at the infrastructure layer. Everything should be easily portable, allowing anyone to control their infrastructure if needed (home, cloud) Markets should be to provide a great service and products on top.

My naive view. If we want decentralisation, self sovereignty (data, privacy, etc) we need commoditize those as a standard, meaning that a user can have full control of everything. (node, indexing, applications, accounts, development). And use platforms for convenience, not locked in.

Great post, this could be applied to Ethereum, self sovereign ideals, markets and social goods, the analysis in the second part highlights the issues of the current conflicts in direction of markets and social needs, which end up eventually being completely different.
