Hi! I just joined this list today after meeting Guix people in Paris and my topic comes up :) It is not quite obvious that once you add a files to ipfs the standard way to list them is `ipfs pin ls`
Thank you! I will try it. I felt really silly for spending too much time on that. I just want to share my videos so that you can see how they are, even they are videos for trying out the video/transl
Hi Laura, I'm sending this also to guix-devel [and sorry for the previous, empty, private mail, I was too fast on the sending button]. Note: I'm also new to IPFS, so I hope everything is correct here
Here is the comentor link to the IPFS proposal: https://www.outreachy.org/outreachy-december-2020-internship-round/communities/gnu-guix/distributing-substitutes-over-ipfs/cfp/mentor/submit/ -- OpenPG
Hi Björn - and guix - Here is everything I tried mkdir ipfsFiles cd cd videosWithoutTranslation/ cp audio-input-list3.txt /home/laura/ipfsFiles/ cp video-input-list3.txt /home/laura/ipfsFiles/ ipfs
ng0 transcribed 2.6K bytes: Eh, let me revise that. It is safe, but IPFS solves different problems than GNUnet. They are doing good work nevertheless. I just think that putting work into something en
I like the idea... a lot! Though I think we'll have to address, how do we *get* the packages from IPFS? Do we use an http gateway (and whose)? It would be even better if by using Guix you automatical
There would be nothing special about it beside implementing an IPFS fetcher, or would it? Let me know if I misunderstood. Very good point, I like it. I think I'll mention this in the talk. Didn't kno
Pjotr Prins transcribed 1.1K bytes: While I don't want to comment on everything, let me just comment this: I think IPFS is the best for now. I'll continue working on GNUnet and gnunet-fs on my side a
I was thinking of the Guix package definitions. In the long run, assuming IPFS turns out to be reliable enough, we could put all source into IPFS with a CID reference, rather then today's many ways t
Hi Pierre, That sounds like a great opportunity. Guix and IPFS are in my humble opinion two of the most interesting ongoing projects in the computing world.. Bringing the two together can only make t
What do you mean? Gnunet has a focus on privacy (at a cost of speed). IPFS is not really meant to be private (though you can host a private network). For public data it is safe. You have to trust the
Ludovic Courtès transcribed 0.6K bytes: I hope that you are aware that this isn't that safe. As an intermediate solution it is okay. It is similar to providing torrents. It works, but everyone wants
Hello, Pjotr Prins <address@hidden> skribis: I would love such a thing to happen (that’s also why we had a GSoC on using GNUnet’s file sharing capabilities a while back.) The simplest thing to ge
Yes, I think we should look into this. I can host IPFS on port 4001 of my home server. I have rather low bandwidth (around 1 Mbps of upspeed, at best), but I can do my bit.
I would be willing to dedicate (part of the) resources on a UK based (small) VPS for an initiative of this type (doesn't necessarily have to be IPFS, but this sounds good so far :-) ). Best wishes, A
By hosting source packages on IPFS they become content addressable and should scale for downloads. It would also become a safe way of distributing data. https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs Essentially the i
Hi Guix! I'm in the process of packaging IPFS. It has about 100 dependencies, most of which are currently missing in Guix, so that's gonna take me some hours :p Thankfully Go is rather straightforwar
Hi! After some discussions on #guix on irc.freenode.org with ludovic, p9kill, roptat, swedebugia, and others which I sadly forgot, I decided to scramble together a proof-of-concept hacky prototype fo
