FYI - I just released this:

Dynamic, Responsive Layout for Universal and Orientation-Aware React Native Apps (works in Expo, XCode et al): Flexbox-based layout library that makes building Universal layouts in React Native more fun and much easier than using Flexbox and JS directly.

Re:Uncensorable Wikipedia on IPFS on Monday May 08, 2017 @12:24PM (#14293033)
I'm not sure this thought makes sense, but just putting it out there for rebuttals and to understand what is really possible:

I assume IPFS networks can be disrupted by a state actor and only thing that a state actor like the US may have some trouble with is strong encryption. I assume it's also possible that quantum computers, if and when they materialize at scale, would defeat classical encryption.

So my point in putting forward these unverified assumptions is to question whether ANY technology can stand in the way of a determined, major-world-power-type state actor. Personally, I have no reason to believe that's realistic, and all these technologies are toys relative to the billions of dollars in funding that the spy agencies receive.

Treason and Reason are confusingly similar to some...
