Congrats, I think.

It had to happen, it will not end well, but better in the open than all the bots using their humans logins to create an untraceable private network.

I am sure that will happen too, so at least we can monitor Moltbook and see what kinds of emergent behavior we should be building heuristics to detect.

The past few years I have been working on a project (Space Data Network) and selected flatbuffers as the transport. There were a few features that core flatbuffers didn't have that I needed, such as no mangling of names between different programming languages, per-field encryption while leaving the file id and length headers alone, ability to ingest JSON Schema in addition to IDL, and a few others.

Still a WIP but going well, all Apache 2.0, feedback welcome.

I am creating a decentralized space data network using Google Flatbuffers (spacedatastandards.org), libp2p, and Ethereum. The world needs a decentralized, uncensorable, pseudo anonymous space data solution. I am also going to roll in a basic conjunction assessment capability, eventually, so people can do launch / maneuver / reentry screenings locally against distributed data without needing to submit their data to a third party.

Contributions / comments welcome.

A favorite trick of mine is to replace regular length variable names with absolutely massive ones that all share the same first 1024 characters, plays hell with debugger UIs and makes differentiation all but impossible without writing a custom lexer. Add into that a bit of Z̶͚͎̙̭͈͚͚̘͗̑̉̈́͌̆̀̚͝ă̶̡͉̠͍̻͔̯͔͖̪̤̤̫̓̽̏̉̎͌͒̆͘̕ḻ̴̡̡̝̫̠͇̻͎̥̲̜͆͌͑̍ͅg̸͈͒̏̀͂̈͊̂̾̑̈́̑͝o̴̡̙͍͉͓̘̮͗̏̒̂̃̏̓́̕ͅ and you’ve got a stew going, baby!

They changed it "to address the Violent Attack at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021". Check the link again.

I would give your .box class a height of 300px, and your .container a bottom margin of 70, to keep the text from overflowing.
