#dat

ogd: IMO http://datalad.org should merge effort into dat mainline

ogd: http://datalad.org/pages/about.html <-- NSF and others funded.

not sure if you've talked to them, but i think that dat (+ maybe some blobs on ipfs) will solve their problems better than git

and looks like they just want to solve problems, not necessarily married to git

jbenet: interesting

mafintosh: cool new changesdown works

mafintosh: though for my use case i dont care about batch atomicity so i am gonna write a stream that takes createChangesStream and 'flattens'

mafintosh: that was easy lol

mafintosh: batches can't be nested right???

ogd: no

mafintosh: hey, you changed your GH avatar. Looks good dude! ^_^

mafintosh: </creepymode>

yoshuawuyts: \o/

mafintosh: many karmas are coming your way via HN :)

erikg: ahh thats where that noise is coming from

mafintosh: yehaw

mafintosh: i saw this and thought about you, then i clicked and it was you!

hah i have a tendency to build p2p things

almost sounds like you do it on accident

"whoops, built a P2P wikipedia. Ah well."

might as well open source it

ogd: rdy to replicate something in a hour? :) its ALMOST working

mafintosh: yea

mafintosh: we should pick a cool dataset

ogd: that doesn't have blobs (yet)

mafintosh: hey how should i purge keys from the changesdown db?

ogd: from the changesfeed?

mafintosh: yea

mafintosh: can i just do require('changesfeed').encode('key') and then changedb.del() that

err mean require('changesdown')

ogd: hmm no - we need an .remove method on the changesfeed

mafintosh: ah cause theres multiple things to remove...

mafintosh: oh or that edge case you mentioned yesterday

ogd: the edgecase and .encode(key) is the key used in the leveldb view - not in the change feed

ogd: is it important to do now? i'm assuming its just to save space (wanna finish what i'm working on :))

feel free to impl it though

mafintosh: oh yea dont worry about it

mafintosh: we can do my genome, i have the csv

mafintosh: or someone elses genome haha

dont wanna sound too mad scientisty

lol

a separate dataset for each of the core teams genome
