  • I agree with your point, and that was my initial hangup as well. If we keep the numbering the same, changing the name is just a contingency prize. Pick an actual start of the common era, say some point in the agricultural revolution when societies began to form. The problem then, though, is actually getting people to switch.






  • You mentioned PGP already, but this is exactly what that technology was designed for. You can sign the post with your private key, meaning anyone with the public key can verify its authenticity, and sites such as GitLab make use of this for signing code commits to prove it came from the author listed on the commit. A scaffolding utilizing PGP for blogging may already exist. You’d have to enter your PGP passphrase to seal the post. In fact, you may be able to take advantage of the exact mechanism GitLab and others are already using by publishing by way of a signed git commit, and displaying like a green lock or something on blog posts that are authenticated.
