ADTs in TypeScript/JavaScript

ADTs in TypeScript/JavaScript

Here are the different ways of creating an algebraic datatype or a tagged value.

type Type = 'A' | 'B';
type Value = any;

type ADTTuple = [Type, Value];
type ADTNamed = { type: Type } & {};

Ed25519 Derive Public Key from Private Key
// Extracted from https://github.com/paulmillr/noble-ed25519/blob/main/index.ts
// This is a minimal implementation of taking a 32 byte (256 bit) private key and deriving the public key
const hashed = await crypto.subtle.digest('SHA-512', privateKey); // data is Uint8Array or ArrayBuffer
type Bytes = Uint8Array;
const head = hashed.slice(0, 32); // slice creates a copy, unlike subarray
head[0] &= 248; // Clamp bits: 0b1111_1000,
head[31] &= 127; // 0b0111_1111,
head[31] |= 64; // 0b0100_0000
const mod = (a: bigint, b = P) => { let r = a % b; return r >= 0n ? r : b + r; }; // mod division

What is Trust?

What is Trust?

It's the relationship between entities that allow them to co-operate with each other.

For trust to be required, there must be vulnerability, as in chance that the counter party might cheat.

At the same time, for trust to exist, one must believe that the counter party has an incentive to co-operate instead of cheating.

If there is no vulnerability, there is no need for trust.
