Oddbean new post about login | logout It really bothers me that we now have data center-class internet connections at home compared to the ones in the 90s. Storage is cheap, and text messages are small. So why is this problem still not solved? Why is it so difficult to solve storage using P2P?
It's not hard anymore. We're doing p2p storage.
People here are usually skeptical about new tokens. I don't know what to think really. But it 's worth trying. Any plans to integrate with Nostr?
Not a token! A computer. Yes, concrete plans to build a personal proxy relay for Nostr! I can't wait to show it to this community.
I don't blame them for being skeptical of tokens! They probably should be most of the time. Anything https://vaporware.network does with crypto/tokens will be strictly optional. We're building a new kind of purely functional open source OS
The way I ran my Urbit ship was without a URL. I port forwarded the browser over ssh. TBH, that is what impressed me about Urbit the most. But the project seemed stalled by a top down inflooencer culture which didn’t seem to know what to do with what they had. If you’re doing something to change that, it’s good.
Yea Urbit had a lot of problems. Most of the major ones were technical but it also had some.. I'll say "alignment/impetus" issues and leave it at that. We built on Urbit for a while and pivoted to a new stack that we are more involved with core development on. We plan to fix many of the things urbit got wrong (and keep the good stuff!) I didn't know you were on Urbit. Did we already talk about this? What was your @p? I'm ~sogrum-savluc, I worked at Quartus. You might have used Gora or another of our apps :)
