And here I was about to start using Sourceforge to distribute large binaries. Mac CLI stuff so it wouldn't actually affect me, but trust broken. |
02:11
π
|
mistym |
Anyone have thoughts on where to distribute large binaries of stuff? I have modern software compiled for old Macs to distribute. |
02:11
π
|
omf_ |
why not archive.org? |
02:12
π
|
mistym |
Oh yeah, I guess that could work! I feel like that might be kinda abusing its storage/bandwidth, but on the other hand maybe not |
02:15
π
|
godane |
so tech history today is full uploaded |
02:15
π
|
godane |
3 twit video colections are sort of complete |

mistym: from reading the article's comments, it looks like it's an ad program the developers can opt into. If you don't want to use sourceforge anyway, people are saying github offers a binary hosting portion again called "releases" |
03:14
π
|
mistym |
dashcloud: I think Github's size/possibly bandwidth is limited though. I'm packaging other software, so there'd be a lot of large packages |
03:14
π
|
dashcloud |
if you're not scared off by Google's crap yet, Google Code does do binary storage |
03:14
π
|
omf_ |
you could try a free mega account as a mirror |
03:15
π
|
mistym |
Google Code introduced per-account size limits too though - projects are migrating away from them because of that |
03:16
π
|
dashcloud |
it would be really strange for a non-linux project, but could you use launchpad.net ? |
03:51
π
|
mistym |
dashcloud: Oh yeah, that's a thought. |
03:59

dashcloud: "hey developer, do you want free monies for zero effort? here, just click the button, come on, come on, just click it..." "yeah well, they opted in to bundle stuff *themselves*!" |
03:59
π
|
joepie91 |
roughly summarizes my thougts on opt-in crapware bundling |
03:59
π
|
joepie91 |
"opt-in" |
04:05
π
|
godane |
so 2001 world articles of theguardian.com is uploaded |

SketchCow, this thread may be interesting: http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackhat-seo/blackhat-lounge/599767-end-google-finally.html |
04:10

|
joepie91 |
gives an interesting... insight into the whole marketing industry and the attitude of the people that work in it |
04:11

Aranje |
yes |
04:18
π
|
Aranje |
:) |
04:18
π
|
Aranje |
that's why there is adblock edge |
04:19
π
|
omf_ |
I use more than one blocking program |
04:20
π
|
Aranje |
I use none! |
04:20
π
|
omf_ |
Living dangerously ;) |
04:20
π
|
Aranje |
I just refuse to use websites slathered in obnoxious ads :D |
04:20
π
|
Aranje |
salon.com recently got booted because of their popovers |
04:21
π
|
omf_ |
For me it is about going to sites I find through search on different subjects |
04:22
π
|
Aranje |
mostly ads (on other people's shit) are annoying to me, not because they're necessarily user-abrasive (though they often are) but because for eg I look at newrelic's website and bam every ad I view for weeks is a newrelic ad |
04:22
π
|
Aranje |
that's just dumb :D |
04:33
π
|
omf_ |
I also find pages load faster when all that shit is blocked. Some news sites have like 17 ad trackers on them |
04:33
π
|
omf_ |
gawker has 11 for example |
04:37
π
|
Aranje |
oh god yeah |
04:37
π
|
Aranje |
I hate that shit |
04:37
π
|
Aranje |
and they're all asynchronous, so it takes for fucking ever for everybody to get done lazyloading shit into the page |
04:38
π
|
omf_ |
yes it is shit |
04:38
π
|
omf_ |
piles of it |
04:38
π
|
Aranje |
yap |
04:38
π
|
Aranje |
what never made sense to me is "why 10 trackers? is GA or insert-decent-one-here not sufficient?" |
04:38
π
|
omf_ |
Ad companies are douchebags, they want to do their own tracking |
04:39
π
|
omf_ |
Ad publishers have no fucking clue what they are doing |
04:39
π
|
Aranje |
their infrastructure is so slow too e.e |
04:39
π
|
Aranje |
high latency low throughput e.e |
04:40

Aranje |
I think it's funny because the boutique ad places (carbon, for example) do it really well |
04:42
π
|
Aranje |
but I guess the reason I like carbon is because their contract states they have to be the only ad on the page |
04:42
π
|
Aranje |
and you can only put a single carbon ad on a page |
04:42
π
|
Aranje |
sooooooo |
04:51
π
|
omf_ |
holy shit, this is why being a public company is bullshit |
04:52
π
|
omf_ |
When Mayer took the helm a year ago, LoebΓ’ΒΒs plan was to fire between 20 percent and 30 percent of Yahoo!Γ’ΒΒs roughly 12,000 workers |
04:52
π
|
omf_ |
I like how to the common solution is to fire people |
04:53
π
|
omf_ |
it never seems to take into account the sunk cost of finding those people who filled the jobs |
04:54
π
|
omf_ |
he owned a billion dollars of stock in Yahoo |
05:04
π
|
godane |
so i found a place that has all the links to odtv |
05:05
π
|
godane |
or ondemand twit tv it was called |
05:24
π
|
omf_ |
youtube has to be the best music piracy platform ever |
05:24
π
|
omf_ |
way more stuff on here than napster ever had |
05:27
π
|
omf_ |
Most of the newer internet radio streaming services are all about recommendations |
05:27
π
|
omf_ |
while that is fine, I like just browsing everything |
05:49
π
|
DFJustin |

mistym: If you upload to archive.org, we don't have to go look for your binaries later and archive them seperately ;) |
07:05
π
|
mistym |
ersi: Also true ;) |
07:06
π
|
ersi |
And I'm sure they'd tell you, if what you're uploading is a problem |
07:06
π
|
ersi |
But.. I think it'll drown in comparison to SketchCow and godane's crazy uploading business ;) |

Seriously, to get archive.org's attention, you have to do insane shit. |
15:39
π
|
SketchCow |
xmc got their attention but mostly because of an extant bug from a machine movie. |
