This is not to say that a collision with a tram couldn't ruin your day, but there's a pretty big difference between "turning onto a paved lane with rails running in it" and "trying to drive down a rail line over rail ballast and ties."

Volmarias posted:Huh, you mean sort of how bank accounts are in most cases just numbers, and financial transactions are just numbers moving around instead of any physical exchanges occurring, with periodic true-ups as appropriate? Indeed. That's why moving to something other than POW makes sense, because the original idea of decentralized transactions isn't workable when the fees and delay becomes excessive.

The “idea” is that the records are tied to a blockchain that is too big for a malicious actor to reasonably reach 51% in either a proof-of-work or proof-of-stake system. Alternatively, there are non-public blockchains (IBM has one) that do the distributed data thing but without a currency attached, and since getting on such an import system would require divulging your real identity then there’s serious disincentives to sue. Of course, buying into a private blockchain removes the whole “independence” thing but paying attention to details is against the spirit of the blockchain. There’s also the problem of MAKING YOUR MEDICAL RECORDS PUBLICLY VIEWABLE but, again, details.

Only this example: Our dog's vet's office closed without any notice and all the records are HISTORY. And yeah that happened with doctors too. The problem with most of the blockchain stuff is it's inefficient and sucks for storing lots of data. But a level 2 chain (no excessive energy/fees) with IPFS (decryption keys in the BC, encrypted data in IPFS) might be a good thing.

Have them required to provide you personally with copies of the records each time they are updated? I'm just giving an example, not rating it. Sadly the state vet board doesn't do that and literally the office (a large one) closed with zero warning or any effort to get us records. No one to call etc. Oh and my wife told me the same thing happened with one of her regular doctors as well. Closed office. New doctor can't get the records. No one to talk to. Medical record keeping isn't that well organized at many offices in the USA.

The blockchain doesn’t solve this problem. A distributed system will only stay that way as long as people are interested in maintaining it (either through mining coin which means it gets progressively expensive to maintain medical records or inflationary pressure means system periodically disappear) or it fractures and fails like streaming provider have. Either way someone is going to lose their medical records. Or you have a centralized government maintain records cheaply in a sql (or if your feeling fancy nosql) database. e: gently caress it, a lovely excel spreadsheet would be better than blockchain Ulta fucked around with this message at 04:14 on Dec 14, 2021 |

If your dog was on the blockchain you'd still need to carry the key somewhere to access it. If you are being required to store a key file or not be able to access the records why not just store the dog records yourself? Either way it's a file that if you lose it you can no longer have the records but one requires a nuclear power plant to run and one doesn't.

Also like, is the idea doctors alone would hold the key meaning if they went out of business they would simply not give you the key making the situation identical to if they did not exist to give you the record. OR is the idea that you would hold the key yourself, have free edit rights to your medical records and just live in a world where leaked medical records is not only a thing but also leaked medical editing rights? Like will I be going to the doctors explaining every time that 4chan is giving me butt cancer over and over because someone hacked my email once?

Also how do you revoke editing rights? My old doctor from when I was 4 can still edit my records because he had the key when I was 4? When he dies and his kids go through his stuff do they have the key now? The answer can't be "just make new records every time" because again, if you do that then it's just the same as transfering the records at all!

The only silver lining to the Roblox bullshit is that it'll fizzle out after a while. I know it's been around for a while but they'll fizzle out when the current crop of kids grow out of it and move onto the next thing. Do they even make those toys anymore? I remember seeing physical Roblox toys at comic book shops back in 2008. For the longest time I figured the video game was the side thing with the toys being the main business but it looks like it shifted at some point.
