For thoughtful response to thoughtful inquiry contact my email. Don't send me private direct messages on the Fediverse. If you have a general question ask it in a public timeline. I block users who send me annoying private messages about things that should be asked in a public timeline.

I sometimes post links to items I find curious, interesting, or of research and study value. This does not necessarily mean that I agree with the linked matter. Don't assume.

    Cryptographic/smart contracts on (and Ethereum) though, are immutable by default. That of course means they can't be updated though. I wonder if there's a way of squaring that circle? Maybe by bookmarking immutable apps and updating the bookmark once you / the community has audited the new version. Slow though.
