Light text on light background for max pain. Still I will read it though. Frankly, I commend anyone who is willing to work long-term on massive projects by themselves like this. I find it inspiring since all my projects are like this tbh. S

Yeah, devs aren't meant to roll their own crypto (tm) but most open source libraries for doing crypto are dangerous (and lack clear guide lines for using them.) So then, what do you expect people to do? OpenSSL is hugely over complicat

Based comment, updooted. Also, I'm pretty sure that if nobody ever "rolled their own crypto" we would never have new innovations in cryptography. By OPs argument everyone in the blockchain industry is in a state of error sinc

I've been thinking for a while that the current security methodology for wallets is not great. YES, that statement is extremely obvious on the face of it. But, I mean, think of some of the basic measures people take. This hardware wall

These all just sound like a way to say no without owning up to it. People can tell when you're bullshitting and will feel resentment. From my perspective: it feels like you're not being listened to. I would instantly think less of

Yeah, I'm no expert on mathematical cryptography but I was thinking the same. Now what would be cool is... finding memorable public keys. That would solve the key exchange problem and allow for secure names without a register. But the

The guide looks well written and I can't see any major errors (just skimmed it.) But some of the diagrams are potentially misleading. E.g. read <---- write write ----> read Implies that send/recv perfectly correlate to each

So I find this neat, I can see a potential practical application as being able to demonstrate a piece of engineer work INSIDE a resume when you apply for a job which I think is really creative. But do you all think there are other use-cases

You're exactly right. It seems to work well enough for domains already so I kept the model.

Hey man, I wanted to say good job on read the docs. I use it for my Python project and find it an absolute pleasure to use. Write my stuff in restructured text. Make lots of pretty diagrams (lol), slowly making my docs easier to use. Good s

Well OP, you have definitely made me reconsider my assumptions about PDFium. I had assumed that JS didn't work altogether in Chrome. But clearly there's just bugs in the code I wrote. You've inspired me to have another crack

I did just think of another drawback for TCP vs UDP punching that I think puts a major point in UDP's favour. It may have been touched on others already. But TCP would require the router to record connection state. This is bad because

It's not UDP but I do TCP hole punching here: https://github.com/robertsdotpm/p2pd and every other major method of NAT traversal. It's written in Python. Though its not based on using the default interface li

I think this is a really good point. As someone who has implemented TCP hole punching myself and now has a very good implementation for it I will say that obviously a major benefit of using TCP is you don't have to subsequently roll a

IMO: this is arguably one of the most detailed articles on NAT traversal on the entire Internet. But it is missing information on delta behaviors (its not that complex -- just that some NATs have observable patterns in how they choose to as

It ain't, trust me. No one who promotes Libp2p ever knows how it works much like users of all of Protocol Labs products. The average "engineer" today rarely looks deeper than the title of the tech they use. They are just glor

Maybe they do, TCP hole punching is like a duel in a way. You are right tho, my spelling is horrible. Hope my message above doesn't come off in bad taste. I should be happy for the OP I guess.

Spent 2 years working on the same problem. Ended up designing a library that does: - direct connect - reverse connect - tcp hole punching - turn support Has other features too like: - multi-interface - duel-stack - port forwarding and pin h
