zero knowledge cryptography solves this

Only in theory, and only if you blindly trust a third party. The implementations in practice are still massive privacy violations.

what third party do you need? The program can be opensource. The verification can be done onchain

Is there any production ready implementation out there?

ZKP is integrated in Google Wallet and has been running in production for a few months. We (Google) released the ZKP library as open source last year (this is the library used in production).

Announcement: https://blog.google/innovation-and-ai/technology/safety-secu...

Library: https://github.com/google/longfellow-zk

Paper: https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/2010

Afterwards, folks from ISRG produced an independent implementation https://github.com/abetterinternet/zk-cred-longfellow with our blessing and occasional help. I don't know if the authors would call it "production ready" yet, but it is at least code complete, fast enough, and interoperable with ours.

Thanks. I'll have a look.

Should be mandatory training to obtain the ESTA permit to enter USA (even if just for transfers)

Just writing here a line in defense of Rothko. His paintings are far harder to paint than it looks like. There were hundreds of layers, thinly applied, and carefully thought and with a developed technique. Try to paint that by yourself and you'll see.

Actually Rothko is way harder to paint than it looks.

Very cool! I'm gonna give it a chance for sometime as a default instead of DuckDuckGo

I trust the billionaires more than I trust governments. Which doesn't mean that I trust billionaires.

For a split second I thought a composer from the English Renaissance era wrote a book about logic.

I hope this fixes my issues with bluetooth on Linux. When I'm on battery the audio breaks all the time. I've tried all sorts of obscure config tweaks with Pulseaudio.

This looks that you're using very aggressive power settings in the kernel (powertop, tlp?), and doesn't seem related to PulseAudio at all.

This just made me install Element right away and finally get away from Signal (and of course Whatssap) and bring as many people with me as possible
