What's the Difference: JSON diff and patch

In case it wasn't clear from my comments above: I don't doubt JSON may be important for this “definitely-not-the-web”-3. I just don't care about it, and neither does a good half of web developers here on HN.

(And yes, I'm also a bit angry because a bunch of lazy marketing dudes decided to hijack the “Web” name for something which has nothing to do with the web…)

Gavin Wood who came up with the name web3 (as a 'decentralized online ecosystem') has a PhD in CompSci - hardly a lazy marketeer! This one is on the technologists...

Ah yes, a PhD. A PhD on “Content-based visualisation to aid common navigation of musical audio”[1]…

Yet another argument from authority which falls short.

Also, that's probably why his marketing was lazy. At least marketing people usually make efforts to justify their payroll.

So he's not a good enough technologist because you look down your nose at the title of his PhD? Such a strange worldview.
