Yeah, I agree it's currently not that great for non-technical people. Still, I'm excited that I finally have something that fulfills this need for something Dropbox-like but with my own storage that seems to get the job done (incl

I've actually found building Go (Syncthing, in particular) for the packaging system I use (Gentoo's Portage) a complete PITA, to the point where I don't understand how it can be so broken. And I'm not really a fan of the

I used AeroFS a bunch for private stuff, and it was okayish, but never a really friendly product. I've since transitioned to Syncthing, which is open source (in Go) and actually has better UI in my opinion (at least for my usage).

This sounds very different from my experience. Have you ever looked at about:crashes and checked into any bugs hanging off your crash signatures? (And if not, please file bugs!) If you make a list of your crashes available, I'd be happ

It's not clear. To be fair, I think there are people who use nanomsg in production as it is, though probably only some parts are production-worthy (e.g. IPC support on Windows has been sort of sticky).

Yeah, that course is awesome. I also took it in order to properly learn about compilers for my language design/compiler side project. I wrote about the experience here: https://dirkjan.ochtman.nl/writing/2012/

For anyone who doesn't know what nanomsg is: http://nanomsg.org/ It's a spiritual successor of 0MQ, by the same (technical) author. The differences from 0MQ are documented here: http://nanomsg.org/

Thanks for your work! I've been wondering -- why do compiled binaries actually include timestamps? For human-readable stuff, I sort of understand, but for binaries I don't see we'd want to include timestamps.

No, I didn't. For my language, being compiled down to machine code has been one of the design goals. Also, it doesn't seem to me like building an interpreter is significantly simpler than building a compiler (at least given the fa

Fun! I've been working on Python-like systems language with a compiler in Python targeting LLVM IR, and it's been cool (though so much work to get a halfway usable language!). https://github.com/djc/runa if a

LLVM Weekly is a great way to keep up with what is going on in that ecosystem (plus some GCC-related stuff now and then). It's definitely something to look forward to on those awful Monday mornings... Plus, even if I skim the llvm-dev

Looks like their public beta has been overwhelmed already, so you'll still have to wait until they have extra capacity.

Not sure about web vs internet, but content-addressable sounds like it could potentially be a big win. Particularly if you factor in encryption, it would be pretty great if static assets + signatures could be more easily + globally cached,

Seems like that has no doubt been an important part of the deal that Yahoo! and Mozilla made. It's an interesting way to get back at Google's heavy promotion of Chrome on their properties.
