-## 7 Ideals for local-first software
-
----
-
-### 1 - No Spinners: Your Work at Your Fingertips
-
----
-
-### 2 - Your Work Is Not Trapped on One Device
-
----
-
-### 3 - The Network Is Optional
-
----
-
-### 4 - Seamless Collaboration with Your Colleagues
-
----
-
-### 5 - The Long Now
-
----
-
-### 6 - Security and Privacy by Default
-
----
-
-### 7 - You Retain Ultimate Ownership and Control
-
----
-
-## Towards a Better Future
-
-CRDTs (Conflict-free Replicated Data Types) as a Foundational Technology
-
----
-
-### Use case
-
-```
-# in node A and node B
-s = "Hello, World"
-
-# in node A
-s = "Hello, Alice"
-
-# in node B
-s = "Hello, Bob"
-```
-
-How to reconcile those?
-- `Hello, ABloibce`
-- `Hello, AliceBob`
-- `Hello, BobAlice`
-- `Hello, Alice`
-- `Hello, Bob`
-
----
-
-Existing CRDTs differ:
-- performance
-- storage
-- compression
-- metadata overhead
-
----
-
-Hint towards the "automerge" CRDT

-# Part 2
-
-Critique
-
----
-
-### Software license
-
-> In our opinion, maintaining control and ownership of data does not mean that
-> the software must necessarily be open source.
-
----
-
-#### Example 1 - intentional restriction
-
-```bash
-#!/bin/sh
-
-TODAY=$(date +%s)
-LICENSE_EXPIRATION=$(date -d 2020-10-27 +%s)
-
-if [ $TODAY -ge $LICENSE_EXPIRATION ]; then
-  echo 'License expired!'
-  exit 1
-fi
-
-echo $((2 + 2))
-```
-
-```bash
-# today
-$ ./useful-adder.sh
-4
-# tomorrow
-$ ./useful-adder.sh
-License expired!
-```
-
----
-
-#### Example 2 - unintentional restriction
-
-```bash
-# today
-$ useful-program
-# ...useful output...
-
-# tomorrow, with more data
-$ useful-program
-ERROR: Panic! Stack overflow!
-```
----
-
-### local-first **requires** free/libre software
-
-Otherwise "The Long Now" (ideal nº5) is lost
-
----
-
-### Denial of existing solutions
-
-> In principle it is possible to collaborate without a repository service,
-> e.g. by sending patch files by email, but the majority of Git users rely
-> on GitHub.
-
-Solution: either  GitHub+CRDTs or `git` **`send-email`**
-
----
-
-### Plain text formats
-
-> Git is highly optimized for code and similar line-based text file
-
-It even pulls software to the plain text direction, e.g.:
-- delivery-templates
-- `common-core.protocols.config`
-
-Why not exploit that more?
-
----
-
-### Ditching of web applications
-
-> The architecture of web apps remains fundamentally server-centric
-
-Disagree. Constrast [PouchDB][pouchdb] with Android [Instant Apps][instant-apps]

-Talk on dynamic content

-
-### Costs are underrated
-
-- storage
-- backups
-- maintanence
-
-Example: blog vs vlog
-
----
-
-### Real-time collaboration a bit overrated
-
-It is only possible on the presence of reliable, medium-quality network
-connection
-
-> X also works when inside an elevator, subway or plane!
-
-<!-- 🤦‍ -->
-
----
-
-### On CRDTs and developer experience
-
-> For an app developer, how does the use of a CRDT-based data layer compare to
-> existing storage layers like a SQL database, a filesystem, or CoreData? Is a
-> distributed system harder to write software for?
-
-Yes.

-## Conclusion
-
-Why this is a "paper I love": it took offline-first and ran with it.
-
-But a pinch of CRDT won't make the world local-first.
-
-The tricky part is the end of the sentence: "**in spite of the Cloud**".
