LMAO already vibrating in place because I thought of some stuff I need to do.
Gonna be the biggest test of self control after not ignoring alarms when I'm feeling sleepy.
@nonlinear With full html and js support to embed little apps in the toots 😻
Page 37 of this PDF really spelled it out for me. :O
Each of the "stores" can be IPLD Prolly Trees and the connections can be via distributed compute pipelines. 😍
Even the query layer can be distributed across multiple workers in order to take advantage of locality and parallel processing.

@technobaboo Yeah, maybe once you have some of the foundations stabilized you'll have more time to look into what sort of stuff can be built on top of them. :o
Luckily the state of VR/AR hardware still sucks (especially with open platforms) so there's plenty of time to iterate before people can actually start depending on this stuff. :P
@mauve A lot of the problems I've had to solve involve coordinating rich interactions between multiple programs that have a separation of concerns that is intuitive to people (to avoid permissions and therefore permission fatigue) while also allowing maximum functionality.
@technobaboo Yeah absolutely! I think your work on stardust is some of the most exciting in terms of VR environments. :o
I'm not sure if you've been attending the omi scripting group meetings, but that might be a good place to discuss standards with others so we can make objects more interoperable (assuming that's a shared value in the first place 🤪).
Might also find a way to get funding from Protocol Labs or something to work on loading interactive objects from IPFS via WASM or the such.
I sort of want a set of Unix-ish single purpose command line tools for ActivityPub with which to do things like:
`readnote --wait @foo@example.com | jq '.object.content' | striptag > foonote.txt`
Doing auth and the rest with cURL is a PITA but with a little automation fun could be had. Someone has to have already made this, right?
@andrew I think this means that the fediverse is in need of a "private groups" feature in general that's not just tied to instances and the instance moderators. E.g. a private group can span many instances and have cross-instance moderation for adding and removing members. 🤔
It would probably not be a mastodon feature but a new fedi-capable system.
@andrew but then only ottawans on your local instance can see it and ones that are on others (like myself) can't. Do I to choose your instances moderators and infra to engage in my phyaically local community? Multi account setups make this easier I suppose 🤔
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
Exploring what a local-first cyberspace might look like in my spare time.
