A light in the Dark

Have you tried lighting the fires?

I have seen it…

A Palantir is a dangerous tool…

Why? why should we fear to use it?

They are not all accounted for, the lost seeing stones. We do not know who else may be watching!

I would be careful with the Palantír.

The danger was never that it showed you nothing.

The danger was that it showed you exactly what someone wanted you to see.

The question is not whether there is a light in the darkness.

The question is:

Who is holding the other end of the glass?

And if the answer is someone is watching

then perhaps the darkest thing we can discover is that they have been watching for much longer than we realized.

That seems like good advice but he also spoke of a light.

Did you see the light?

Ah my friend here he likes riddles, he does.

Not going to lie, I enjoy them as well but maybe we should provide some details.

The light

Ic-light vanilla js library.

If you like web3 stuff on ICP and you’re just dipping your toes in, theres like 1000+ lines of working vanilla javascript that you can use to have your front end talk to ledger and index canisters.

Handles candid serialization, anonymous actor creation and caching, pagination of queries, and a bunch of other messy stuff so you don’t have to.

It’s not much its a v 0.0.1, but it’s honest work.

No dependencies, it loads the dfinity libs from cdn for you and it just works. The proof is in the palantir.

It’s true I do love riddles. But I prefer a game of riddles in the dark. No need for a light.

You’re not afraid of the dark, are you?
