I meant things along the lines of: • Users not being aware of upgrades • Users not upgrading when there are critical security updates or bug fixes • Having to support much older versions of software indefinitely

I think the goal for Codebase has to be user/org owned and controlled repos, etc (canisters) that can decide if and when they want upgrades. In practice I think there’s a lot to figure out there, and a lot of it isn’t specific to Codebase.

It has been a pleasure hearing the story of @py Young, founder of @CodebaseLabs An exceptional person and one of the most talented and knowledgeable developers in the entire blockchain ecosystem. rss.com/podcasts/lets-talk-i… #community #BLOCKCHAIN #SoftwareDeveloper #cryptography
@py demos codebase.org, his IC-powered github-like. He creates a repository and adds a commit via web UI, then clones the repo locally. General git workflows aren't ready yet, but Paul is now working on tasks such as authentication which will get us there! Exciting! 😲

I don’t think anyone will build The Internet Computer (including us), just like nobody built The Smartphone. It’s a new category of technology (ChromeOS, etc).

🔥 New Post: Announcing InAppBrowser - see what JavaScript commands get injected through an in-app browser 👀 TikTok, when opening any website in their app, injects tracking code that can monitor all keystrokes, including passwords, and all taps. krausefx.com/blog/announcing…

That process of tailoring a product roadmap to solve a dire problem for a specific market with a best-in-class solution that matches their way of thinking about the problem: *THAT* is marketing Advertising comes after all of that. Not before

The Telegram bot at t.me/InternetComputerBot runs fully on the #InternetComputer now, no external bridges needed any more, just a simple canister (= IC-hosted service), thanks to new IC features implemented by @py. Code at github.com/nomeata/ic-telegr….

Programs running on @dfinity’s #internetcomputer can now serve HTTP _and_ update their state, thanks to @py. It’s a tad slow, of course, because it goes through consensus. Try it at y4oop-liaaa-aaaab-qacha-cai.… (playground demo, will disappear shortly), code at m7sm4-2iaaa-aaaab-qabra-cai.…

Like records for APIs in #PureScript, but don't want to miss out on nice partial application that currying gives you? I got you! gist.github.com/natefaubion/…

I really like this paper on how to write research papers and I use it all the time for writing proposals. I think “writing papers is a primary mechanism for *doing* research (not just for *reporting* it)” is quite liberating and also applies to blog posts cis.upenn.edu/~sweirich/icfp…

Your daily reminder that Black Lives Matter, and that if you claim to support Black Lives, support Black software engineers and content creators by following, supporting, and promoting them. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

On June 11th, Michael Hickson, a quadriplegic black man with COVID-19 was killed by a hospital in Austin Texas. Doctors decided he had "no quality of life" and was not worth spending the resources to save. The conversation between his doctor and his wife was caught on audio 1/?
