Looks like the Mozillians are finally working on fixing the curl | sudo sh problem with rustup. About time! http://internals.rust-lang.org/t/what-changes-are-necessary-to-make-rustup-sh-handle-sudo-itself/1948 …
@taoeffect @juanbenet @KentonVarda @zooko this specific problem is probably best solved with http://theupdateframework.com/ http://freehaven.net/~arma/tuf-ccs2010.pdf …

@bascule@juanbenet@KentonVarda@zooko I’ve skimmed over this and it doesn’t look like it solves it very well. -
@bascule@juanbenet@KentonVarda@zooko In some sense, yes, many existing Internet problems are best solved with a blockchain. -
@taoeffect@juanbenet@KentonVarda@zooko Bitcoin-style "blockchains"are monumentally inefficient and poorly suited to most problems -
@bascule@juanbenet@KentonVarda@zooko The “inefficiency” of blockchains is a myth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXerV3f5jN8&feature=youtu.be&t=33m39s … -
@taoeffect@juanbenet@KentonVarda@zooko you want to replace DNS with Namecoin. Namecoin is *MUCH* less efficient than DNS -
@bascule@taoeffect@KentonVarda@zooko i don't claim that, but to play devils advocate, count in the efficiency registrars and CAs. -
@juanbenet@taoeffect@KentonVarda@zooko the cool thing about registrars and CAs is they can fix ATOs/mistakes. With Namecoin all is lost -
@bascule@juanbenet@KentonVarda@zooko Namecoin can have all the properties of CAs. It is a step forward in every single aspect. - 9 more replies
