Carbon VS ipfs

Carbon is probably one of the most popular vendors to handle dates in PHP.

Official page, at the very bottom.

Let me start by referring you to PHP's DateTime implementation. There is a library called Carbon that uses this DateTime implementation and added almost all the methods you have (but better). So there really is no need to create your own just to be able to display Dutch names. That way to can get rid of the nasty "globals".

At first we go to https://carbon.nesbot.com/ Here we will see a lot of interesting information and go deeper into it See also https://github.com/briannesbitt/Carbon

first of all, i think you should use Carbon library. it's available here: https://github.com/briannesbitt/carbon

See: https://github.com/briannesbitt/Carbon/issues/1693

Working with datetime in PHP could be a real pain if you don't take advantage of popular libraries like Carbon. It's all good until you have to convert dates provided on user input into another timezone (eg. UTC) and vice versa. Other example could be that you have to manage various input datetime formats, and sanitize them into a consistent one before saving it to database.

Be careful of floatDiffInMonths() which can gives you a lower result (number of months in A < number of months in B) for an interval having more days (number of days in A > number of days in B) due to the variable number of days in months (especially February). By default, we rely on the result of DateTime::diff which is sensitive to overflow. See issue #2264 for alternative calculations.

> CDNs

If you think IPFS is trying to "re-spin CDNs as their invention", I'm pretty sure you misunderstand what IPFS. The homepage is a great starting point if you're curious rather than antagonistic: https://ipfs.tech/

> IPFS doesn't solve persistence of data

I don't think it claims to solve this either? What it does claim to solve is the persistence of identifiers of data.

> doesn't solve churn in p2p systems

What P2P system has ever done so or even claimed to have done so?

We will create a web app that will let users mint a NFT in one click: creating an AI art from a prompt, storing it on IPFS and mint the unique NFT in Polygon so you can see it on OpenSea. Pretty cool right ?

IPFS, which stands for Inter-Planetary File System, is a decentralized storage system where files are distributed among peers in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network. It operates on a "content addressable" model, meaning that each file is given a unique hash that serves as its identifier. By using this hash, you can retrieve any file from any IPFS node in the network.

Like this? https://ipfs.tech/

Was thinking of something and figured it would be a good opportunity to ask here. With the censorship madness going on in the world and furry community included, I often worry if even places like e621 can remain free and open in the face of increasing pressure by increasingly angry and authoritarian crowds. For both this and other geek reasons I've been interested in decentralized internet technology for a long time, following projects like IFPS which I just love as a concept.

Using the Interplanetary File System, a real thing that exists today, designed for this purpose.

I post a lot about IPFS, I was using the 'ipfs mount' to virtually offer my entire collection from my NAS (on a private 'swarm' of course) to the remote stations.
