noosphere VS wine

Subconscious | Full-time | REMOTE - Hiring globally, current team is San Francisco, Washington D.C. and Brisbane

At Subconscious, we’re building new infrastructure for an internet of ideas.

Noosphere is a next generation network protocol; a worldwide content graph (no blockchain though).

Subconscious is a social note-taking app powered by Noosphere and AI.

Our founders are former browser engineers from Google and Mozilla. We are a small, funded team of four.

We're looking for a few more folks to help bring our work into the world. Specifically, we are hiring:

- DevOps: you should know the ins and outs of cloud infrastructure orchestration and its interplay with deployed applications and services

- Cryptography/Privacy: help us make strong guarantees about public and private information, and bring user legibility to content provenance and authority

If you are interested, please drop us a line to introduce yourself at [email protected]

Currently we have a CLI that demonstrates multi-device synchronization in principle. You can install it using `cargo install noosphere-cli` (it installs a binary called "orb"). We also have pre-built binaries of orb for x86_64 Linux that you can find on our releases on Github (e.g., https://github.com/subconsciousnetwork/noosphere/releases/ta...). We'll be expanding our pre-built binaries to include other platforms soon.

Also, we have recently released a Swift package that gives a path to easily install our project as a dependency in XCode. We're turning the corner on offering the same FFI backing implementation as a TypeScript + WASM package, too. But, as I mentioned it's early days for us, so set your expectations accordingly.

The best way to stay up to date with new things you can do is join our Discord. I make regular announcements there about our technical progress.

Plug: I'm working with the author on a decentralized protocol for networked thought and a companion browser called Subconscious. We're a very young project and just getting off the ground.

If you're interested in topics like the one in the article, all our work is open source and we love getting into it with folks on Github or our Discord (link in the README): https://github.com/subconsciousnetwork/noosphere

Sometimes when a detail of Windows isn't documented, the Wine source code can be useful. Have you tried looking at it for details of win64 SEH? For example:

https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine/blob/master/dlls/ntdll/e...

https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine/blob/master/dlls/msvcrt/...

Source code: https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine/tree/master/programs/wor...

It's Wine with some special sauce (Apple couldn't reuse VKD3D because they chose to invent Metal rather than stick with OpenGL/Vulkan so they had to build their graphics translation themselves). Crossover is built on the same technology. In fact, Apple's brew script literally links to Crossover's sources: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apple/homebrew-apple/main/...

Things like the crypto API should be implemented if you can find the reference for your specific API calls here: https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine/tree/master/dlls/crypt32

Apple's version of Wine is aimed at developers, though. It shouldn't take too long for someone to make an app or script to easily set up environments with the developer runtime, but I doubt they'll support it as well as Valve supports Proton. If your application of choice doesn't need any fancy graphics, there's a decent chance Wine/Crossover can already run it anyway, no need to mess with Apple's SDK.

With the M2 Max outputting 28fps at 1080p (screenshot linked), I wouldn't expect too much from the gaming performance of this thing, though.

Not the OP, but Github's stats on https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine say the current Wine codebase is 95.1% C, 0.3% C++

Take a look at Wine's commit log. It's really well curated. https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine/commits/master

Fixes Overwatch 2 game freeze after a few seconds in game. After a long bisect it was found that wine-mirror/wine@4bf9d24 from upstream wine wine 7.13 and higher needed to be backported.

git clone https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine \ cd wine \ ./configure \ make \ make install \ wine ./Anomaly.exe

Well, I personally can't confirm nor deny that (the only "old" game I play is Plants vs Zombies (2009), and surprisingly it still works great with latest Proton). But the reality is that Wine/Proton are very large and complex projects, developed by pretty much just reverse engineering Windows; Couple this with the fact that a lot of changes happen in-between versions (especially in Wine), and even though an one-line change fixes an issue, it might end up breaking something, elsewhere. My point is, it's almost inevitable not to break stuff eventually. This is why Valve gives us older Proton versions to choose from.
