    Nice talk!

    16:00 "fission drive" sounds exciting, so in principle I can have data on my disk, also distributed via IPFS and available to local-first apps. This is something I've had in mind as a "data mirror" [0], it would be cool to interoperate with data from various silos and build apps/alternative clients on top of it. I've got a bunch of data extractors/normalisers already [1], would be interesting to try and connect it!

    By the way, for demonstrating offline mode, both Chrome/FF devtools have network throttling (which is also useful for triggering/testing race conditions). In Chrome offline mode is also in devtools, in firefox offline mode is in "menu - more - work offline" (which is a bit less convenient, but still)

  • PJON

    PJON (Padded Jittering Operative Network) is an experimental, arduino-compatible, multi-master, multi-media network protocol.

    Until it ultimately relies on Amazon S3 and a commercial network provider this stuff looks rather useless. I hope IPFS will someday run on top of protocols like PJON ( https://github.com/gioblu/PJON ). Decentralization and democratization of networking will happen from the lower end, when the network infrastructure will be ours, and we will not be forced to pay multiple corporations to temporarily store our data or get it from one end to the other. We should build our own global, private network infrastructure and use it for free without the need of an ID or a contract. On top of this sort of infrastructure something like IPFS may have sense.

  • InfluxDB
