wow..archive.org has everything...including a Game of Thrones episode uploaded by someone...and popular on the bt tracker.. |

one interesting aspect of the gitchain code is that it appears to be implemented as git plumbing, which gives it good advantage over btsync etc in that you do not need to run external programs |
|
21:47
🔗
|
yipdw |
the usual git push commands work precisely as they did before |
|
21:47
🔗
|
yipdw |
that also eliminates Smiley's ease-of-use objection in that the UI is the same, though your git push/fetch reliability may be negatively affected |
|

I could see the use in case it's meant to be collaborated to by a lot of people. But the controversial criteria makes me think there will be 1 or 2 guys only contributing so it has no use.. |
|
21:48
🔗
|
yipdw |
interestingly one could make a similar objection for everything #archiveteam does |
|

I mean...it has a use.. but it's a lot more complicated |
|
21:49
🔗
|
yipdw |
it isn't just meant for controversial stuff; that was just the first thing I thought of |
|
21:49
🔗
|
yipdw |
it can be more complicated if the distribution leaks out into higher layers |
|
21:49
🔗
|
yipdw |
I do not know of a reason why that absolutely must be the case |
|
21:51

|
yipdw |
assuming a network of acceptable long-term stability, I think it'd be pretty neat to configure a git remote into that network and just push there |
|
21:51
🔗
|
yipdw |
if that works, that can be the basis for other decentralized web services |
|
21:51

Github Pages uses git as a storage mechanism, for example |
|
21:52
🔗
|
yipdw |
also, git-annex might be interesting in that regard |
|
21:52
🔗
|
yipdw |
what I'm getting at, or at least trying to get at, is that it has more interesting applications than "push code into bitcoin-like network" |
|
21:54
🔗
|
deathy |
good points, interesting to see what comes of it |
|
21:55
🔗
|
yipdw |
I suspect Github might actually be interested in it too, since they have had a hell of a time trying to get their backend to scale |
|
21:55
🔗
|
deathy |
but isn't there a catch-22 in the sense that the DHT will only be good/powerful/reliable in case it's really used by a lot of people? |
|
21:55
🔗
|
yipdw |
see e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xK5yaWTt0R0 |
|
21:55
🔗
|
yipdw |
deathy: yes, and that's the same chicken-egg problem that e.g. all social networks face |
|
21:55
🔗
|
yipdw |
you need some external, powerful force to get people on board |
|
21:56
🔗
|
yipdw |
the difference here is that just because you have some entity throwing lots of resources to get the network robust, it doesn't mean that they necessarily retain long-term control over that network |
|
21:58
🔗
|
yipdw |
that screencast on the kickstarter page is a bit unwieldy in that you need to issue a few commands to get going; hopefully some of money will go towards a better UI |

actually read "Crawling BitTorrent DHTs For Fun and Profit" recently, depends on the DHT. "Sybil attack" is interesting |
|
22:02
🔗
|
deathy |
and for all of the "We have DHT, we don't need/host trackers anymore" movement in BT recently.. public bt works and works well mainly due to the appearance of opentracker-based public trackers |
