This seems like a big deal:

May not be accessible in the CLI yet but you never know!

In itself, this is no biggie, but then the first faint rumblings and wisps of steam from what was to become the eruption of Ciumbre Vieja were “no biggie” either.

I’m looking for 300m high lava fountains and significant disruption to air traffic myself here.

Haha, sorry. I think that was perhaps something automated atm. @Southside .

But yes. Dysfunction is innnnn at last. Was a long PR, but shined a light on a few query bugs.

There’s been a rust regression there by the looks of it. I don’t have it to hand but there’s an issue for it on the rust repo eg.

And the excitement continues!

store_and_read_5mb_from_many_clients with 50 client readers (currently 25 in the tests) get following results locally:

Time: 30 s
CPU: ~40 %, (very briefly above 50%)
Mem: ~60 mb / Elder, (very briefly up to 125 mb)
compared to the results on main:

Time: 704 s
CPU: 100 %, all the time
Mem: ~2 gig / Elder, all the time

One more improvement like this and it is absolute perfect.

Steady!!!

It IS an impressive reduction in required resources but I get the feeling there are many more optimisations /tweaks yet to come that together may well show similar increases in speed and reliability.

The prototype has just rolled out of the workshop and has only done a few development laps yet.

– Simplify, then add lightness. –

Anyone know where RDF/LinkedData will fall in the SN roadmap?

I have seen many people want features within Spotify that would be realistically achievable with Linked Data. Granted there might be a significant amount of interface development needed to support the desired features which might be part of the reason they haven’t delivered on them.

Anyhow the roadmap page on safenetwork.tech is 404ing at the moment.

Roadmap will be getting some love soon… it’s in dire need.

RDF/LinkedData (my personal crush too) will almost certainly come after the Network is on its feet. It is going to be a supreme tool, the awesome-sauce of Safe, but if we are looking at the straightest line to roll out features and helping people, it makes sense to have it come after.

On the edge of chair already!

There has been a lot of activity in GH recently, but difficult to make any sense about it. PR’s worked and merged left and right, even when tests are failing. But after merges, Nightly release run passes! Then again release process fails after that.

But I’m quite sure it’s going to be a very interesting update today!

The agogometer is giving inconsistent readings. Big things are certainly happening but whether they will be ready for announcement later today is not so certain.

blst-bulletproofs is interesting but again the Readme.md contains caveats which suggests WIP not an imminent release. https://camo.githubusercontent.com/97e1577fed4ac754d5d6acd28c539e6c4d35d89d6a8a21b1bebd86e56f6fa812/68747470733a2f2f646f632e64616c656b2e72732f6173736574732f62756c6c657470726f6f66732d72616e676570726f6f662e706e67

just makes me wish I had paid more attention in college maths. However there may be hope and I will have a look at the links in that doc otherwise I am going to have to offer drink and sexual favours to someone who can adequately explain it to me using alphanumerics and NO greek or math symbols.

GitHub - maidsafe/sn_dbc_examples again is very interesting. But note the section that says what this crate is NOT…

OTOH the work going into the sn_diagrams cannot purely be for internal use only. Something is about to get announced and with supporting diagrams/graphics - just not this afternoon at my guess.

I think we may be justified in going pure agog next week or the week after
