Update for anyone who might see this post: this guy was adopted (yay!) so the link leads to an animal-not-found page. It's heartwarming, because so often euthanasia is the outcome instead. So having said all that, please consider adoption! If you need help finding a foster/rescue org let me know

They're bit-by-bit because the author just implemented the most naive proof-of-concept. Given the 63bit space, there are def ways to have 3 (maybe even 4) bytes expressed by each lock while still allowing multiple concurrent participants (perhaps even better than that, just some napkin math!)

anyway i'm starting to use bsky and started it off with a total shit post so that's going well
