Is anyone doing #CategoryTheory around here?
Anyone here interested in #IETF’s Signing HTTP Messages spec?
I have a #scala implementation of it here with links to specs
https://github.com/bblfish/httpSig
This could be used by #JS, #Java, and native (so #Python or #Perl) via the #ScalaJS and #ScalaNative compilers.
(It would also require a bit of work of course)
Anyone interested in the Solid Protocol here? Perhaps integrating it with Nostr?
#SolidProject
Anyone working with #Scala on Nostr?
Is my bitcoin #Lightning address correctly set up?
The reason is that some extremist political activist who does not accept any criticisms of his calumnies went directly to the w3c.social admin Coralie Mercier (a very nice woman who does not like to get into conflictual situations) and accused me of "promoting Fascist Conspiracies". In fact I was just pointing to a part of #RFKJr's interview where he was explaining the situation in Ukraine and where he started by saying:
> Vladimir Putin could have avoided the war in #Ukraine. His invasion was illegal. It was unnecessary. And it was brutal. But I think it is important for us to move beyond these comic book depictions of this insane avaricious Russian leader that wants to restore the Soviet empire, and who made an unprovoked invasion of Ukraine...Clearly not a fascist conspiracy.

But I will attach a picture of it here for later reference.
The second post removed from the #w3c social #Mastodon instance was where I defended nostr:npub19zscu28djwhapecs3hh9qj5kr89hahq6mlx50dsqf72x8xxqv06q8xzyhq’s statements in the leaked video by factually pointing to what he had said:
@xbsharp
I don't see how you can say it is "unscientific fearmongering". The article #RFKJr referred to under oath and that was entered into the record of the proceedings on #censorship in "House Judiciary Committee" was:
"New insights into genetic susceptibility of COVID-19: an ACE2 and TMPRSS2 polymorphism analysis"
The NIH funded this article.
If you have a problem with their research, you can contact the researchers, the journal, or the NIH.

This post where I pointed to the passage in the Hearings on Censorship was deleted:
At 2h 23min into the hearing on #censorship, #RFKJr is given time to explain how the Vaccine companies were given Legal #immunity:
> After getting sued heavily for the DTP #vaccine, Wyeth (now Pfizer) went to the Reagan White House and demanded liability protections with the threat of getting out of the vaccine business.
>
> President Reagan asked Wyeth why they couldn’t make safer vaccines.
>
> Wyeth answered that they couldn’t because vaccines are “unavoidably unsafe"

My first post removed was the first post to w3c.social:
I just moved to w3c.social, after I was asked to leave another instance, for defending Presidential Candidate nostr:npub19zscu28djwhapecs3hh9qj5kr89hahq6mlx50dsqf72x8xxqv06q8xzyhq #RFKJr from slanderous accusations. I see that specialised #Mastodon instances would rather not deal with politics. Yet if they don't allow someone to rectify slanders against #RobertFKennedyJr then they are promoting them. See:

Even after sending messages to the #W3C Tag, the admin of w3c.social - Coralie
Mercier - after minor pressure by extremist political activists who cannot stand
to have their Slanderous posts against @RobertKennedyJr rectified calmly. I was
told yesterday that the rules had been changed so that political posts should be
hidden if sensitive. But I was not told old posts that did not appear on my wall
would be deleted.
I will add some details in the thread below.
nostr:npub1plstrz6dhu8q4fq0e4rjpxe2fxe5x87y2w6xpm70gh9qh5tt66kqkgkx8j would be very useable on the OSX Desktop if there were a way to set the font size. It's a bit too small for me.
I think it is completely possible to have different viewpoints on this subject, given that it is an empirical subject, ie one where it is rarely possible to have certainty.
#RFKJr is certainly right to ask how come so many health problems have emerged in the past 30 years.
Also the drug industry was multiple times charged with huge fine. Johnson and Johnson paid out 26 billion just last year for the opioid crisis.
The recent Behaviour with COVID made millions of us suspect that the full immunity granted by Ronald Reagan to the vaccine industry did not give them any incentive to care.

Nonsense. #RFKJr had a discussion with a leading Rabbi who completely rejected such claims
https://twitter.com/robertkennedyjr/status/1680444979456487424?s=46&t=X9YHssVRB6l0JykPxK7DLA
Clearly the charges of antisemitism are just designed to silence discussion on #bioweapons
Nonsense. #RFKJr had a discussion with a leading Rabbi who completely rejected such claims

Furthermore #JFKJr is completely right to point out that such false accusations are laying the groundwork for real antisemitism https://twitter.com/robertkennedyjr/status/1680585809831817216?s=46&t=X9YHssVRB6l0JykPxK7DLA

“On #Mastodon censorship”
In this blog post I tell of 3 times my post were #censored on Mathstodon.xyz in the past 9 months:
1. When I posted about YouTube censoring a speech of an MP in the house of parliament!
2. When I replied to a post by #LinusTorvalds pointing out some dangers #transitioning kids
3. This weekend for posting the exact text of what #RFKjr said regarding the danger of #bioweapons, a blog post pointing to 100s of articles supporting #RobertFkennedyJr’s statements, and a link to a long conversation he had with one of the most prominent US rabbis who rejected completely the association of RFKjr with #antisemitism
But then I also checked with other instances and found that no one on this apparently #decentralised network had posted to defend RFKjr. Stange is it Not? What kind of anarchic system would not find a single person to defend a presidential candidate with 20% #democrat support?

On Mastodon censorship
The suspicions unity of political views across mastodon instances does not bode well, as I argued in this blog.
I was always suspicious of federated systems but I thought it would take longer to be disappointed.
https://medium.com/@bblfish/on-mastodon-censorship-e8429f52e2fc
I should add, my suspicion of “federated” systems lies in that it is not decentralized enough.
I am looking forward to the results of
“The 2nd International Conference on
the Philosophy of Conspiracy Theory”
