I made a new kind of Trusted Timestamp based on plaintext encoding
I've just launched a new site that creates Trusted Timestamps. Anyone can use it to make any data immutable going forward in time. By "verifying" a Trusted Timestamp against a file, you certify that file has not been altered since the time the Trusted Timestamp was created at. Trusted Timestamps are not a new idea, there is a standard defined in RFC3161 and some other prior work as well. My design though is different as it is based on plain-text, human readable files. I believe this makes this form of Trusted Timestamp more accessible for a wider set of applications. I found the RFC3161…

Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…
