i would have to imagine the gastown design isn't optimal though? why 8, and why does there need to multiple hops of agent communications before two arbitrary agents communicate with each other as opposed to single shared filespace?

yegge's article does come off as complicated design for the sake of complication

Seems similar to Gas Town

yeah, seems like a much simpler design though (i.e. only seems like one 'special/leader' agent, and the rest are all workers vs gastown having something like 8 different roles mayor, polecat, witnesses, etc).

Wonder how they compare?

Even at the personal blog level, I'd argue it's worth it to run your own server (even if it's just an old PC in a closet). Gets you on the path to running a home lab.

You’re also located outside of any country that could regulate

nickorlow · 4 days ago

A country will definitely still be able to regulate you. Also under what regulations they'd be afraid of other than local building laws

I don't get the point at all of these. You:

- have very non-deterministic latency

- are located outside of a country that can protect you (ie China could disrupt your space data center)

- have to pay millions of dollars to swap out hardware

Why choose this over Cloudflare D1?

nickorlow · 5 days ago

Not a technical reason, but given Cloudflare's recent business practices where they hold you hostage if you don't upgrade to an enterprise plan are a pretty good reason to avoid imo.

Yeah, that's fair, though I'd think you can get a CDN/someone else to host the blob this for fairly cheap/free.

Having too many users is a pretty good problem to have anyway!

(Could have the client download the blob from where the repo is hosted on GitHub, which takes under a second for me to download: https://github.com/rebane2001/xikipedia/raw/refs/heads/mane/...)

Mastodon/HN do not have a personalized weighted algorithm. On HN you see what everyone else sees, and on Mastodon the feed is chronological. DuckDuckGo offers some privacy, but still sends your search queries to Bing.

Also, all three of the examples are projects that have years of dev effort and hosting infrastructure behind them - Xikipedia is a project I threw together in less than a day for fun, I don't want to put effort into server-side maintenance and upkeep for such a small project. I just want a static index.html I can throw in /var/www/ and forget.

And re: hosting, my bare metal box is fine. It's just slow right now because it's getting a huge spike of attention. I don't want to pay for a CDN, and I doubt I could host a file getting multiple gigabits per second of traffic for free.

I'd think other neural-engine using apps would also have weird behavior. Would've been interesting to try a few App Store apps and see the weird behavior
