From what I heard, the BitTorrent inventor bootstrapped the network with free porn.

Because a hare shouldn't bite a wolf. That's against established business practices and customs.

Yes, thanks, we had to clarify that. Essentially, that is a simulated breakage.

That's a minimal demo. But implementing a chat is rather easy: history is a "set" (like mice list in the demo) and a message is an "object" (like a pointer in the demo).

Updates propagate by dynamic spanning trees. Servers restart to stress-test that feature; trees need to be rebuilt on every server join/departure.

Heh. Last time I checked v8 regexes were really fast, except their string builder was a disaster... it wrapped every piece of string as a js object (gc and everything).

Strange. I was sending a regular wire transfer from Europe to Russia at the commission of ~1%.

Well, just another me-too story. When I was somewhat younger I had to "deploy" one Cisco product which was definitely a result of an "incentivized" sale. That sweet sweet setup involved login-password authorization (assisted by a Cisco rout

Actually, there are also "scavenger" congestion control algorithms that use leftover bandwidth. The most high-profile example is LEDBAT used by BitTorrent's uTP. uTP is indeed a TCP clone, but I had my chance to develop a protocol which was

I am also rather confused by that concept of 'real' objects you may 'pass around'. Those are wrapped callbacks, not real objects, you must keep that in mind anyway.

By "any source available" I meant Sec 3.10. "Peer Address Exchange". HTTP over PPSP is a weekend project as long as we mean good old static HTML Web. By the way, what is the current public repo for TUD PPSP?

Strictly speaking, PPSP is a swarm transport protocol ("give me that data over IP, UDP or what have you, use any source available"). I mean, "sharing" is a concept unrelated to the TCP/IP stack thus PPSP is not a sharing standard. For examp

No, guys, why do you despise manual work so much?

Friend of mine studied mice in a nuclear disaster zone. Basically, mice adapted and there was no statistical difference compared to a control population (outside the zone).

I miss the times when "innovation" meant "killing more people at once" :) (Disclosure: I'm in the business of social-online-stuff as well. Also, I collect knives.)

Sorry, but what is the idea? Chatroulette with no video?

Aha... and for 2^32 I'll have 5-fold speedup. 6-fold for 2^64 entries, obviously. Frankly, those small-linear-factor improvements tend to be overshadowed by other factors (i.e. whether you hit the cache). I mean, they make sense as an optim

I don't really understand the point of fusion trees. log log N is a constant from the practical perspective. So, O(logN/loglogN) is simply O(logN). What was the point?

Well, the need to change some obscure option in BIOS is quite a problem already from the end-user perspective.

That reminds the "rifle nightmare" of the Russian Defense Ministry (1860s-1870s). Every new rifle system accepted was entirely obsolete the next year. By the time of Russo-Turkish war, the army had 10-20 completely different rifle systems i
