To everyone working on DAG-CBOR/DRISL implementations. There was a small update to that specs that shouldn't cause much problems, but is newsworthy: negative zero -0.0 is now forbidden. I recommend serializing it with the bytes from `0.0`. github.com/ipld/ipld/pu... github.com/darobin/dasl...

fix: reject -0.0 by vmx · Pull Request #65 · ipld/serde_ipld_dagcbor

For IEEE 754 floats -0.0 is equal to 0.0. It makes sense to have only a single representation for the same numbers, hence always encode it as 0.0, i.e. 0x0000000000000000.

A new release of serde_ipld_dagcbor is out. Major change is being strict on decoding. crates.io/crates/serde...

Hey we shipped a new Go code generator for lexicon types. Been in production for a couple weeks now 🥳 Based off of @bnewbold.net's cobalt work and @hypha.coop's go-dasl for DRISL serialization. Copies indigo's echo server stub generation verbatim. 100% compatible with @atproto/lex lockfiles.

Are you working with civic open data? Or other kinds of cool data? Reach out! There already are some cool projects for geo/sat and astronomy data — making dataset metadata available and searchable in a decentralised yet unified way — and we want to help more of them emerge!

We shipped content addressing to millions of users, then spent ~10 years pretending the spec already existed. 😅 Well, billions of CIDs later, it's finally real: the official CID spec is live on the @ipfs.tech specs. specs.ipfs.tech/cid/ Thanks @lidel.org and @robin.berjon.com

Tomorrow's CID Congress is shaping up to be a good one! Retrieval protocol discussions, a new Matadisco implementation for digital collections data, and a new mobile-first, developer-friendly IPFS node called Meshkit. We have room for 1-2 more demos, send a DM if interested. luma.com/smdplgg8

The future is now! - Dial keys, not IPs, thanks to Iroh - Fetch hashes, not URLs, thanks to DASL - Build on shared records, not siloed databases, thanks to the AT Protocol

Iroh@iroh.computer · 2mo ago

We just released the first stable version of iroh, v1.0! Read about it: www.iroh.computer/blog/v1 We're super proud of where we landed with iroh's 1.0. Since version 0.35 it feels like we've entirely replaced the "engine underneath". Are you a fellow key-dialer? Come tell us how you use iroh!

How do you send 880,000 verified medical messages a month with near-zero support load — and no central database to breach? Switzerland's Health Info Net fragments & distributes encrypted messages across an IPFS swarm. Read the case study: docs.ipfs.tech/case-studies...

🔥🧨💥 HOT NEW DASL STUFF FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT! 💥🧨🔥 First is MUXL, a deterministic variant of MP4 so that you can publish reproducible, content-addressed, verifiable video. dasl.ing/muxl.html

DASL: MUXL — Media Uniform eXact Layout

MUXL is a deterministic and highly-restrictive subset of ISO-BMFF, enabling stable content-addressed identifiers for video and audio. It's like DRISL for MP4 files!

Ilya (Marshal)@marshal.dev · 2mo ago

🚀 Python libipld v3.4.0 is out! Up to 30x faster DAG-CBOR decode than pure-Python library. Up to 2x faster than v3.3.2, with ~30% quicker CAR parsing for the Bluesky firehose! More details: github.com/MarshalX/pyt... #atproto #bluesky #python

Oh yeah, I'm so ready to Matadisco all night and Nebra to the stars and back!

Friends from the Internet! This Thursday, join us for CID Congress — with a session dedicated to SCIENCE and what fun content-addressed data can do there! luma.com/ptrjn16w

Cool property of atproto that isn't talked about is how CIDs make mirroring free. 1 user publishes 1 record, that takes ~1kb in the blockstore 1 user publishes 100 records, that takes ~100kb 100 users publish the same 100 records, and that... also takes ~100kb

Manifest-declared protocol handlers just landed (behind a flag) in Chrome 146 🎉 This is how ipfs:// or atproto:// can become first-class citizens of the browser! The web that's coming is built on keys, hashes, and verifiable data. Browsers need to meet it there. ipfsfoundation.org/protocol-han...

Are you ready to dazzle, bedazzle, and be dazzled? Because this coming Thursday is DASLing Group day! We're getting: • New video primitives MUXL & S2PA from @iame.li • The Radworks local-first app launcher from @norman.life • And more! Don't miss out! luma.com/yv4v1lba

🦀 Hey rust users, if you’re affected by the core2 yanking, fixes are now live in rust-cid v0.11.2 and rust-multihash v0.19.4. Thanks github contributors cwlittle, benten-ben, & jxs!

Are you (yes *you*!) using IPFS gateways on a regular basis? If so, please be in touch. We have a next-generation alternative that's better in many ways and we'd like people to test it hard.

While we're loving on rust, just a reminder that lib.rs/crates/dasl exists and is very fast! 💨

Good morning, Day 2! @robin.berjon.com will be sharing Matadisco, a system for publishing metadata for open data at 4:40. Come find him or @mosh.bsky.social to talk open data discovery, DASL.ing, or webtil.es! #atmosphereconf

Good morning #ATmosphereConf! Jazzed for today's 10am talk on Feature / Product / Business, where I'll cover my personal stories as a builder, founder, and funder, and some frameworks and thought for building an enduring ATmosphere.

Important piece of multi-protocol support in browsers! Thanks to much work from Javi, and funding from @ipfs.tech. HEY NOW, settle down - a ways to go: - can only redirect to URLs/paths - no Safari - off by default in Chrome (for now) - only allow-listed schemes unprefixed Step by step...

🪩 Introducing matadisco.org! — a way to discover open datasets via #atproto that doesn't depend on any single institution staying online. 🕺🏼 We have more public data than ever (satellite imagery, climate models, genomic sequences), but finding it is still painfully hard.

Heading to #FOSSGIS in Gottingen? See you at @vmx.cx's talk introducing matadisco.org, a new system for resilient, public data discovery.

Volker Mische@vmx.cx · 4mo ago

On my way to the #FOSSGIS conference in Göttingen! I'm so thrilled to meet all 1000 of you.

If you've noticed @ipfs.tech's upload/publish performance is so much faster lately, wonder no more! ProbeLab's Optimistic Provide is finally in production and it's working like a charm! Check how and why at: probelab.io/blog/optimis... Here's how big the improvement has been!

A small but meaningful update: IPIP-0499 is now merged into the IPFS spec! We're introducing configuration profiles for CIDs. 🧩 🧵

Excited to announce our collaboration with @ipfs.tech and https://dasl.ing on two new standards for the next thousand years of decentralized social video: S2PA and MUXL! Together they give us a standard for self-certifying and content-addressable media in the decentralized social ecosystem.

Holy shit @iame.li and @stream.place are pullling C2PA into the atmosphere together with @ipfs.tech. I am am kinda gobsmacked to see this suddenly pop up as a real thing that Eli's making. @reckless.bsky.social and Jess Weatherbed talked about the problems w/ C2PA www.theverge.com/podcast/8740...

Reality is losing the deepfake war

Why metadata standards like C2PA are not remotely equipped to handle the current AI deepfake crisis.
