Read a few papers this week.
Questions of what "identify" means for different folks,
trying to resolve what Sam will use it to mean.
ISO standards for these terms? I googled briefly and found this
I mentioned this blog on real names & facebook
Sam will do his plan talk in Ded Hour on Nov 18 .
Discussed his "idea" of a possible shared zero knowledge system:
arbitration example, Alice suggests punishment A, Bob suggests
punishment B, Roger the arbitrator gets to pick the actual
value P within a range say (A+B)/2 +- delta. The issues
is whether there is a zero-knowldege-ish way for Alice
and Bob to be able to compute whether or not P is
within the bounds that Roger is supposed to follow,
without knowing the other persons (A,B) value.
(I think.)
