#102Sigh. Kids don't realize that before "the internet" there was Usenet, dial up modems, and store and forward nodes. But the same kids want all the things that the surveillance economy pays for, but they don't want to pay. It's definitely messed up.
I actually designed a device about 10 years ago, it was connection like Tailscale but embedding a 32 bit IPV4 experience in the IPV6 space. You still had to pay $1/month or so to cover the cost or running a network specific DNS somewhere but you already pay for your own Internet access, and putting a "server" in the form of a RaspberryPi on this network would be super oldschool. Think Metro-scale 'NAT' where the 'NAT' part was just the lower 32 bits of a 96 bit prefix. You can lift and run, unchanged, the IPV4 world if you want. Your own private 4 billion address space to play around in.

#104It's the most dumb article I have ever seen on Hackernews with respect to the writer who has knowledge about protocols and concepts. No TCP/IP means no normal internet routing. → You would need a totally new way for machines to find and send data to each other. Bots are not tied to HTTP/HTML forever, people can write new bots for the new protocol, including by the use of GUI automation (digital or with plotters that…

It is very demoralizing to post something and be met with this kind of reaction, which will hit the other person 100x harder than I'm sure you intended. You can make your substantive points without that.

Thanks for sticking up for me, lol. It's ok though. He's partly right in that I was in a rash burn-it-all down mood at the time of this post. Suggesting we start from scratch re: create an entirely new way to transfer information between machines was obviously pretty hyperbolic and over the top. I had just seen one too many AI-generated posts on bearblog and wanted to do the equivalent of go off-grid and hope there w…
