refalo@programming.devto Programming@programming.dev•Is there are good alternative to IPFS?11·2 months agoMy experience with IPFS over the years has been abysmal, and I think people have said the protocol design cannot sustain any more growth, which is not even that big yet at all.
You also cannot realistically search for files reliably by its hash, because of how files are divided into smaller pieces, whereby the method of dividing can change between clients, making the hashes incomparable. BitTorrent v2 solves this to my understanding, but almost nobody uses it for some reason.
Often times you need to wait several minutes for IPFS to find a file, assuming it ever finds it, which sometimes fails even on two boxes next to each other.
the interface is not near as slow and clunky IMO, and it’s always broken when using JShelter extension for me

All you need in order to do this is for the client to encrypt their password before sending it to the server. Often services that advertise “zero knowledge” platforms that use end-to-end encryption will authenticate their users in this way. If this were a website for example, there could be a javascript/wasm library used within the client page that encrypts their password before a login request is sent to the server.

Not sure how moderation would even be possible with this model.

refalo@programming.devto Programming@programming.dev•Falsehoods programmers believe about null pointers153·5 months agoVery misleading writing style IMO. I would say most of their bullet points ARE actually true in most cases… they just keep bringing up somewhat rare/exotic exceptions as a way to call it a “falsehood”.
how does this compare to https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF ?
I would rather be beautiful because then I wouldn’t realize everyone else around me is so unfathomably stupid.
if you’re beautiful you don’t need to be smart.
Wouldn’t smartness imply discipline?

If the cops or anyone else really needed you that bad, they’d be busting the door down anyway and you’re already fucked six ways to Sunday.
Also cameras. Lots of them. Different brands. Offline recording. INSIDE AND OUT. Ask me how I know.
They probably used AI to help write it.
