yeah for auth is a blockchain even required? it's pretty much just asymmetric crypto at that point isn't it?

I think the 'web3' way would make it worse wouldn't it? like metamask relying on centeralized service to query the blockchain

I guess a real benifit I could see would be being able to use a blockchain to revoke your keys somehow but that's not how metamask and web3 stuff seems to work right now

minsk and minsk ii were designed to fail, there's no way either the russian supported separatists or ukraine would abide by them not to mention that russia didn't uphold it's end of the frameworks anyway

the russian idea of 'ukrainian neutrality' would require the US to formally reject the idea of a nations right to self-determination to satisfy the demands of a state that isn't even a peer or on good terms which isn't going to fly it weakens the united states and europe

the rest is minutia, blowback, corruption and handwaving at the end of day this is the stupid game russian leadership setup and wanted to play

I have once a long time ago, but it was the mixture of age + experience and not expecting that the person would actually be interested in staying shit-show of a company I was working in at the time ( it folded 6 months later anyway)

there's the whole 'western unity' thing but it won't last very long and doesn't severely change the equation

It's no joke, I know people in their early-mid thirties ( they were somewhat late bloomers from career growth being stunted from the recession) who decided just to not have kids all together as a result of the lockdown/drama it's kind of sad

there are still a ton being developed in specialty domains (even searching qt c++ on job boards returns a decent amount) not much that's consumer focused a lot of those users have moved to mobile and web

a lot of spaces are totally dominated by entrenched players (office)
