I know this is maybe something we'll never agree on, but I don't see the problem with a global namespace? Isn't it a feature? It makes the web work! It makes the phone system work! It makes email work!
I wasn't saying either one is better than the other. Just that whether it's a global namespace is a property that then has all these other side effects when trying to maintain that property in a system -

Sure and that social distance way works for searching online but I hear folks saying their account names all the time. It’s important we do find a solution.
heh social distance -

so, like URI s and URLs? but with relative namespaces?
I don't think there's a clear answer yet. But I'm thinking something that matches more how people communicate identities in person. Plenty of people share the same name and it's not a problem the majority of the time during normal communication. -

Decentralized naming systems like @HNS and @namecoin seem focused on competing with DNS. They're also hopelessly complicated. Is there equivalent for user names instead of DNS?
I think the challenge is you need to drop the idea of creating a global namespace. Otherwise you end up with DNS or blockchain solutions, both of which are centralized. You need something that doesn't rely on the entire system being aware of all other names.

@aaronpk Do you have any plans of making "The Little Book of OAuth 2" available as ebook? I bought you another book as PDF and would love to do the same for this one.
I thought about it, but most of the content is the specs themselves, which are already available online in a variety of formats, so I'm not sure it would add much value. Plus formatting an ebook is a *lot* of work 😅 -
The failed promise of Web Components – Lea Verou
A spot-on summary of where we’ve ended up with web components.
Web Components had so much potential to empower HTML to do more, and make web development more accessible to non-programmers and easier for programmers.
But then…
Somewhere along the way, the space got flooded by JS frameworks aficionados, who revel in complex APIs, overengineered build processes and dependency graphs that look like the roots of a banyan tree.
Alas, that’s true. Lea wonders how this can be fixed:
I’m not sure if this is a design issue, or a documentation issue.
I worry that is a cultural issue.
Using a custom element from the directory often needs to be preceded by a ritual of npm flugelhorn, import clownshoes, build quux, all completely unapologetically because “here is my truckload of dependencies, yeah, what”.
