After a ~week+ down with a mystery bug, I'm finally functional enough to code again.

Sat down to start on example #iden notebooks and decided I needed to expand the library a bit first. Which I hope to finish tomorrow.

Meanwhile, I got an email (finally) telling me my background check has finally been finished and I've been deemed worthy to deliver stuff for #doordash

Yay. I need to start visiting the outside world a bit and delivering food sounds like a good way to pass the time.

Generating an #iden identity makes for an interesting benchmark:

* On my Alienware laptop from 2022, it takes a bit over 4 minutes.

* On my 2019 laptop, 26 minutes.

* On the Digital Ocean VM the node runs on, 43 minutes (!).

I'm guessing something in the #RaspberryPI class might take a bit over an hour?

And I'm guessing something nice from 2025 would probably be able to do it in under a minute ;-).

Maybe not, but probably.

#iden Quick-start verified: Creating and sourcing the #python and #rust virtual environments to compile and install, generating an identity, starting the pad manager, and how to import the library in a #jupyter notebook ready to write and read and poke at the test node.

Die Iden des Merz

Wie immer zu dieser Jahreszeit droht Gefahr in der Politik. Vor allem, wenn sich Politiker zu Sondierungsgesprächen treffen.
Falsche Wahlversprechen werden klammheimlich ge- und erbrochen. Schließlich geht es um das Wichtigste für die Parteien und Politikende: Die Macht. Und nicht nur, um sich in dem Gefühl suhlen zu können, das Sagen und die absolute Wahrheit innezuhaben. Nein, es geht um da
