They are all going away March 15th:http://webcast.berkeley.edu/ https://pad.riseup.net/p/cal_webcast_archiving, http://news.berkeley.edu/2017/03/01/course-capt...

karissa: wow 'As part of the campus’s ongoing effort to improve the accessibility of online content'

ogd: what was the source for the results123~.js file we were looking at Saturday? Curious where those ArcGIS servers were listed

jhand: theyd be in both *headers.json and downloaded.json in the 38gb dat ive been replicating lately.

https://biterrant.io is dat vulnerable to something similar?

ogd: thanks, I'll take a look

bret: we dont use sha1

oh nice

lol just found out http://yolocounty.org/ exists

Saw their GIS server in the metadata and thought it was a joke: yolo-gis-prod.yolocounty.org

let's move there

Good place to move if you like tomatoes apparently

In this electron blog post https://electron.atom.io/blog/2017/02/21/dat, Dat team says "To address this we recently switched to a strategy where we bundle all compiled binary versions of all platforms inside the npm tarball.""

For which module Dat-desktop uses this strategy ?

G-Ray: using prebuild as the packager, we use it on rabin and sodium-native

Thanks ogd, but how can prebuild install the right electron or node package ?

G-Ray: good question, mafintosh or juliangruber may be able to answer that

yeah because I'm unable to package a native node modules for electron

G-Ray: it uses prebuildify and node-gyp-build to do that

G-Ray: basically, you prebuild for every platform. put all prebuilds inside the npm tar (builds are usually small) and pick the right one on runtime

Thanks mafintosh: do you have an example module ?

G-Ray: see utp-native and sodium-native

both have a prebuild npm script that builds for the current platform

G-Ray: i run that on osx,win,linux and then download all builds locally and run npm publish

G-Ray: if you npm install utp-native and cd into the node_modules/utp-native/prebuilds folder you'll see the builds I included when I published

Great, I will look into that !

random idea, if you dat diff two dats it should compare filenames and hashes of files and give you stats on how similar the two datasets are

ya that'd be cool. can we just compare the merkle trees if the filenames change?
