The Dark Energy and The Network

Let’s assume there are 21 million public keys which are trusted within a hierarchical structure. A network. A network.In this hierarchy, A trusts B, B trusts C, and so on, creating an indirect chain of trust that eventually leads to the last entity, which does not trust anyone else. This hierarchical structure is necessary because A cannot interact directly with all 21 million keys. The only thing known about these 21 million entities is their public keys—nothing else at scale....

Fault is Code

I clone a git repo, make a modification, commit, push, and create a pull request. The pull request is reviewed, merged, and the change is built, tested, and deployed to an integration environment before going to production. This process can be applied to any software project with an integration environment. Without it, we only know the code works on the developer’s machine and passes CI tests perhaps unless this level is all expected....
