2017 was 7 year ago, Aaron died 11 years ago. There are a lot younger users who can’t remember these things.
Let’s see a 20 years old university student was 13 when the source was closed down, I think it’s not easy to find a 13 years old who is familiar with such legal things.
Reddit was open source until 2017, and one of the founders was Aaron Schwartz. So it didn’t look like that for a long time.
Python is installed by default on all linux and mac systems, so it’s just one more command to install pipx. From there just pipx install tagify. You don’t need an installer, just specify the build tools in pyproject.toml: https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/pyproject-toml/#declaring-build-system-dependencies-the-build-system-table e.g. with setuptools: https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/pyproject_config.html
If you publish to pypi it will build the wheel files when you publish a version. That’s the easiest way I know.
Innosetup is windows only. On linux you don’t need such a thing.
Some feedback:
pyproject.toml you can merge them a single easy to read and edit fileos.path.join(os.environ["APPDATA"], "Tagify", "config.yaml") will fail on *nix systems. Use pathlib.Path instead of os.path. Use pathlib, I see on a lot more places it would make your life much easier.Keep up the work, it seems like a nice project!
It was a terrible sub for years much before the apicalypse. It was full of apple fanboys who believed every marketing bullshit.
It’s documented in the wiki, they are called VCS packages, and it’s not the usual, they work a bit differently: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines
You can see in this instance, that it skips the sha checking for upstream source, in line 15 of the PKGBUILD it says ‘SKIP’: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=hyprspace-git#n15
sha1sums parameter is documented in the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#sha1sums
In the PKGBUILD file you can list sources (line 12,13) and their respective checksums (line 14,15). In this PKGBUILD there are 2 sources: the first is the systemd unit file, it’s coming from the package’s AUR repo, not from upstream, you can see its checksum. The second source is the actual source, and you can see, it’s checksum is ‘SKIP’ so it shouldn’t be checked.
With these kind of packages you can’t get notified if there is an update available, but if you install it again with your favorite AUR helper it would update itself for the latest version. It calculates version number from the latest commit hash, before building and installing, so if that is the same it won’t update again.
It was 33rd in 2010:
In November 2010, the Air Force Research Laboratory created a powerful supercomputer, nicknamed the “Condor Cluster”, by connecting together 1,760 consoles with 168 GPUs and 84 coordinating servers in a parallel array capable of 500 trillion floating-point operations per second (500 TFLOPS). As built, the Condor Cluster was the 33rd largest supercomputer in the world and was used to analyze high definition satellite imagery at a cost of only one tenth that of a traditional supercomputer.

Nix just calls the *.nix files, it’s still go under the hood. PKGBUILD is similar to the flake.nix and package.nix files to me, but I have no experience with nix.
I think that may be an American thing. I’ve never seen one here in Europe.
My general view is similar, yaml is better if it should be written by humans, json is better if it should be written and read only by a machine. but hyprspace uses json for configuration, so I don’t really understand cellardoor’s comment
what:
is:
your:
- problem
- with:
YAML
# At least you can have comments unlike in json. Who need comments in a config file anyway.
Or port forwarding. You have to open a udp port for wireguard
AUR packages ending with"-git" or “-svn” always pull the latest commit from source. The version number means that was the last time the packager had to change something on the PKGBUILD script, not the actual version which would be installed.
Where should I look? Where were these talks? I’m interested.
Edit: I found the whitepaper about hole punching: https://research.protocol.ai/publications/decentralized-hole-punching/
It says it connects to a “Hole Punch Coordination (DCUtR - Direct Connection Upgrade through Relay)”. So for NAT traversal to work, you need a third party, this relay. As I expected. I guess you can self host this, but than you could just host a wireguard server. I guess if you are on a locked down network where you cannot connect to any relay (e.g. how the Chinese Great Firewall works technically they could block it) you can’t initiate a connection behind a NAT.
Nonetheless it seems interesting, but no magic here. Maybe the big difference that the relay servers are distributed, so no central authority to block easily.
Interesting, it’s on AUR, I will try it.
So it doesn’t need any port forwarding, and works on CGNAT? How the “NAT hole punching” works? Both clients connect to something on IPFS?
Afaik, for DHT with torrent, clients need to know at least one tracker, what is the “tracker” here? Something on IPFS? Who am I sending my IP addresses?
How much overhead does this add to speed? I love with Wireguard, that it’s barely noticeable, really close to p2p speeds, OpenVPN was awful in this regard.
I work around this by enabling rdp or ssh on guests as soon as possible and connect from my terminal for ssh, I use remmina for rdp, paste works there.
I don’t know other situations where I would need this.
