Ouch yeah that windows endpoint stuff is really rattling though. I get you just can’t whitelist some folder without compromising security, but when the “eNdPoInt pRoTeCtIon” just removes dlls and exes you are compiling (and makes your PC crawl) you really hate that shit.

Right click? 40 seconds plz (maybe any of the possible contextual right clicks might be on a virus so lets just check them all once again).

At home I have an old linux pc, and it blows those corpo super pcs out the window.

Rant off :-D

Ah yeah, IT people are chill, always be cool with them is also a good idea, not their fault all this crap exists.

Gigabit fiber? You’re in some posh spot but needs to downgrade for some reason, right?

Thats golden !

Ha ha came here to suggest exactly this book!

It has it all, from bubble sort up to parallel algos and isn’t it just a killer name, introduction to algorithms…

I use like 4 git commands in prod (make a branch, rebase, rebase interactive, push) plus git gui & gitk.

I made a small winwoze gamebox for gaming, photoshop & 3dsmax.

Dude, intalling windows was totally shit. I remember when you chucked in a winxp cd in the drive and off it went, those days are long gone it seems.

Installing and setting up Linux (mint) is a fresh breeze compared to windows.

Fixing? We just moved to the kitchen!

And the metrics, “we see many back and forth between the dev and test” -> devs stops doing it.

Audio working in Teams? If I accept a call and then plug in my worthless usb headset, it just doesn’t function.

One time out of five or ten to be generous, making a room and inviting just 1 person just foesnt work either, gotta call up a third person to make the sound work.

I mean how hard can it be …

Have you heard of windows millennium?

I hate jira because it slots your work stupidly by the management, or so I feel it.

A manager usually works with time slots, say 8 a day (or whatever), they are all mostly disconnected, like do meeting with A, go to standup of team B, PMD for dev C etc etc. Dev isn’t like that but everyone seems to start thinking it is: how many “items” was finalised last “sprint” etc and other stupid metrics.

Am I alone here or is there even worse things with jira in your opinions?

Thanks!

IPFS is static, whereas tenfingers is dynamic when it comes to the links. So you can update the shared data without the need of redistributing the link.

That said, its also very different tech wise, there is no need for benevolent nodes (or some crypto or payment).

Nodes do not need to be trustworthy either, so node discovery is very simple (basically just ask other nodes for known nodes).

The distribution part, where nodes share your data, is based on reciprocal sharing, you share theirs and they share yours. If they don’t share any more (there are checks) you just ditch the deal and ask for a new deal with another node.

With over sharing (default is you share your data with 10 other nodes, sharing their data) this should both make bad nodes a no problem, but also make for good uptime and takedown safety.

This system also makes it scalable infinitely node wise, as every node does not need to know all other nodes, just enough for their need (for example thousands out if millions of existing nodes).

To share lots if data, you need to bring enough storage and bandwith to the table because it’s reciprocal, so basically it’s up to your node how much it can share.

Big data sets are always complicated because of errors and long download times, I have done 300MB files without problems, but the download process sure can be made better (with parallel downloading for example and better error handling).

I haven’t worked on sharing way bigger datasets, even a simple terabyte is a pita to download on the regular internet :-) and the use case is more the idea of sharing lots of smaller data, like a website for example, or a chat.

What do you think, am I missing something important? Or of course if you have other questions please do ask!

Also, sorry I’m writing this on my mobile so it’s not very well written.

Edit: missed one question; getting the data is straight forward to use (a bit complicated how it’s handled because of the changing nature of things) but when you download, you have the addresses of the nodes sharing your data so you just connect to one of them and download it (or the next if the first one isn’t up etc and so on). So that should not be any kind of bottleneck.

And slow startup times.

I write my specs in C++

Okay here it goes!

Tenfingers sharing protocol & python implementation (your python needs cryptodomex, or use the frozen executables).

http://tenfingers.org

You share theirs, they share yours (all encrypted)! So no benevolent nodes or crypto and it’s 100% decentralised.

I’m working on a better documentation on how to set it up (just forward a port and run setup basically).

Would you be interested in a similar protocol that supports more things (and is IMO easier to set up)?

Yeah it’s basically a benevolent-store-static-data, where static is you cannot change it (or you have to upload new data and make a new link to it).

Cool name though.

You are allowed to say fuck here.

Hell yeah! 💖💖💖

Knee high socks are for any Linux flavour 💖
