IPFS is slow as molasses and their solution was to introduce paid pinning services. Complete failure.
And then they announced they will willingly and proactively delete any hash that any legislative agency tells them to, and it was dead in the next minute.
Most distributed systems simply don't live up to their theory. Having a hub is simply always easier and consumers hopping temporally from hub to hub is just the most efficient mechanism.
Agreed. The idea behind IPFS is nice but we need to combine it with all the good lessons from the torrent software and stuff like NNCP in order to have something truly distributed, resilient, fault-tolerant and automatically replicated.
Deconstructing the heroic view of history, no matter what the real history is, makes us understand that every so-called strong person can be as despicable as a prostitute, so that we can only focus on what they are currently doing, not on their past identity
OKR should be something those managers use, not things we programmers(well if you like, call me coder is ok, I don't care) should do. Because it's those managers manage our jobs. If no one can manage my job except me, I'd like to use OKR.
You became a millionaire. But I, who had always ranked in the top ten in a small town of more than 100+k people before college, still did not own a house after working for 10+ years.
I got fired with severance, and took the opportunity to do this. It feels so rewarding to work on your own project, waking up and just deciding what you want to do next with it. There were also periods where anxiety got to me, because it's not giving me enough money to live from it (it barely supports its own costs). But all in all I'm enjoying it and learning a lot in the process. If anything, it makes me want to keep trying to find financial independence and new ideas.
That’s how I approach open source in the first place. And the part that others can help you along your way, while you allow them to use your code as well.
Since ipfs is content-addressable storage, it's readonly. If we make it cow, encourage people to seed is easy.
