A handful cryptographers were asked for feedback on the architecture of the European Identity Wallet. We seized the opportunity to write a short report to urge Europe to reconsider the design, and to base it on the use of anonymous (aka attribute-based) credentials.

_Government's Self-Insulation_

"Ignorantia juris non excusat" is Latin for "Ignorance of the law does not excuse."

That should also apply to government officials—especially when they make or enforce laws that are themselves Unconstitutional, or when judges misinterpret the Constitution.

FTA: Rationally, however, what of the assumptions implicit in ['ignorance is no excuse' principle]? If one thinks about this principle from the perspective of the citizen, it is certainly not as straight forward as the government believes it is. If ignorance is not an excuse, then it logically follows that citizens must know all laws. Likewise, at the federal level, Ignorantia juris non excusat applies also to federal administrative rules. An appropriate question is how many laws and administrative rules are there that all citizens have to have memorized under this principle. Currently, the federal register contains slightly more than 30,000 statutes. So the law requires each and every citizen to memorize or, at least, be familiar with 30,000 laws and administrative rules in the federal register. It is also the case that the federal government adds between 200-600 statutes per year. A moving target indeed.

I would hate not being able to have milk.

@issdeinschnitzel @PaulJosephWatson virtually all of the scandals i can remember were uncovered by private testing. agencies are not to protect people but extract revenue.

@issdeinschnitzel @PaulJosephWatson just buy it used. not going to poison kids with chinese mystery plastic.

If you have blueberry plants and chickens; the chickens will eat all the ripe blueberries. Even jumping up to get the ones on top.

@remixtures let me guess, the city stopped issuing building permits due to environmental ideological reasons and now it would take too long to let the supply catch up

@Pawlicker same here! I like sharing art I enjoy. It's also cool when there is some collaborative effort going on. @matana made the cover art for this, @Mr_NutterButter made my company logo, and I've made music for one of @xianc78 's games :) I also was able to get a voice actor I needed through fedi too, so that's cool!

I added shape previews to tetris-mode :)
