Then, we’ll make IPv8, with 2^1024 address, which will be incompatible with IPv6 and IPv4 and all software on release, and will take decades before any appreciable uptake. Addresses will use hexadecimal, as well as the entire 4-byte Unicode table of emoji and Egyptian hieroglyphics, with octet separated by $ and { symbols for heightened readability.
- immibis 2y agoNo, we won't do that.
- zeristor 2y agoI believe IPv8 does something else: https://py-ipv8.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ https://py-ipv8.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
- tribler 2y agoIPv8 dev here. Thnx for mentioning this. IETF draft standard of IPv8: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-pouwelse-trustchain-01#section-4 https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-pouwelse-trustch... Bonus: "De-DSI" == LLM- based fuzzy search + IPv8
- DonHopkins 2y agoThe time the think of deploying IPv8 is BEFORE you've deployed something else. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYo0lVVH2wU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYo0lVVH2wU
- tolien 2y agoYet there will still be comments asking why IPv8 can't be IPv4 with another few sets of digits tagged onto the end, as if that would somehow be compatible with the current implementation of IPv4.
- IgorPartola 2y agoI swear it is easier to argue with flat earthers than with people who want IPv4 but with more addresses.
- tolien 2y agoI just hope that by making the joke, I won't accidentally make fetch happen :-D
