A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Recently I had the idea to cryptographically sign my blog posts with gpg. It came to me while I was thinking about various forms of news fakes, whether intentionally misrepresenting news orgs, individuals, or AI generated by the latest round of eldrich horrors we have unleashed.

The idea itself is simple: By signing the posts you can add trust to the source.

I made a little flask app so I can sign posts on any platform with a short url https://github.com/gregology/pgpsignature

As an example post -> https://pgp.clar.ke/h

I would sign this post but I just migrated to a new laptop and haven't moved everything yet
