If anyone else has an easier way to emulate RISC-V I’d like to hear it. /S

The past century of promised reductions in work fall under the assumption that competitors will mutually agree to not use the excess time to compete against each other.

Mildly offended that Forth didn’t get mentioned once in the article. /s

In the 2010s, there was a move away from files in the name of convenience (lock-in).
The 2020s are a war on hyperlinks. It is particularly unfortunate to see this masquerading as a concern for safety and security (“everything outside of our platform is scary and insecure”)

Gnutella and Gnutella2 used something like a single hash bloom filter to route p2p file queries across the mesh in a less wasteful manner. It was not perfect, but it worked enough to scale to very large user counts.

This README is begging for historical context and commentary.

My story is but one story and every organization will be different. Pretty much no one is handwriting code. If you made my VS Code window read only, it would not affect my work. Every pull request is reviewed line by line and manually tested for correctness before merging. But no one is physically writing the code.

I don’t think IPFS was built for search. I see some unmaintained projects that sniff DHT traffic for hints, but (correct me if I am wrong here) the protocol maintainers never added a search layer. Eg I can’t search for “violin” and find the hash for “learn violin.pdf”.

I wish someone would revisit the idea of a single, global, P2P file search mesh like Gnutella/Gnutella2 but using a modern P2P stack (or WebRTC) instead of raw TCP/UDP like the old days.

I thought this was an article about microservices.
