coolest part about this is that this is something we can do now; bounce between algorithms, pitting them against each other in a friendly competition to be the best feed.

haven't felt this energized in a while 🔋 We're building a proof-of-concept E2EE library & demo on AT Protocol, using BeeKEM for DCGKA. There's a long road between a PoC and a foundation we can all depend on, but every journey has a first step🐾 bsky.app/profile/bosc... bsky.app/profile/expe...
chrisb@boscolo.co · 9mo agoWith #AT-SMS we are committed to building group messaging support on top of the most promising decentralized continuous group key agreement (DCGKA). No candidates yet, tho. I think a few more implementations are needed to make the IETF discussions fruitful. bsky.app/profile/bosc...
i'm really proud of this policy. it's not perfect, but i think it's close to the best that was possible given all the constraints. i'm excited that this will make things easier for mods and reviewers, and hopeful that it will spark change in Rust's governance. blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/...
