i recently had the pleasure of hanging out with both zooko and warner and they're both excellent. as @whyrusleeping mentioned, there's lots of room for interop + collaboration on things. (in short, we <3 Tahoe-LAFS)

Great point!! working towards fixing that (the general problem of safe execution of binaries). signed releases will help. I will release as self-describing signed package for this soon.

many execution contexts don't have perl. i have some <10MB VMs in mind.

All great ideas! mind adding some to https://github.com/jbenet/hashpipe/issues ? over time we can implement some

oh the "Qm..." string is the base58 representation. you can have a binary packed version as well. check out more at https://github.com/jbenet/multihash/ the important thing here is standardizing the enco

great point. if you have a good idea of how hashpipe should do it better pls comment at: https://github.com/jbenet/hashpipe/issues at least hashpipe stops the output, so this would not run the bad code. hashpipe w

yeah, this is just a stopgap for me. in the end i want: ipfs daemon --mount & sh /ipfs/QmTpnQL97XEHmyt54mgEwf5BN8gJWvw4sGgwQzjqtBwLX6 (this actually works, btw :)

not everything is hosted in the same place. most binaries use CDNs different from the websites. e.g. github + s3. (see my other comments on this page-- hashpipe is only meant to raise the bar a little)

all the good names are taken. i guess it's time we give up on not clashing.

this already works. install ipfs: http://ipfs.io/docs/install then: ipfs init ipfs daemon & sleep 20 # sorry this will go away ipfs mount sh /ipfs/QmTpnQL97XEHmyt54mgEwf5BN8gJWvw4sG

That's a bigger problem, because we essentially need full PKI. My preferred solution is via http://ipfs.io -- but i may be a bit biased :) I think we can get halfway there with a "signed hash" construction, but ye

by _prometheus 12y ago
yeah, hashes are decided by every single bit including the last one, and not a single bit should be output until the hash matches. It currently buffers everything in memory, but might do this: https://github.com/jbenet/

by _prometheus 12y ago
yeah, i was going to call it `hashcat` -- maybe i should do that. or `pipehash`.
