utterly useless headline to anyone who doesn’t know what those things are (me)
The real news is that iroh hit v1.0.0.
noqis a fork of crate that implements QUIC which iroh uses. In other words, it’s a minute implementation detail not immediately relevant at all to people who don’t even know what iroh is (yet).How did we get here? OP text is copied verbatim from the README, with the presumption that it’s relevant, but it isn’t.
How did that happen? I would assume no human was directly involved in doing that, which would be par for the course with that shit-reposting account.
IP addresses change or can be unreachable (e.g. requiring NAT traversal), so this tool lets you connect two machines (P2P) using a collection of other tools and protocols like relay servers, noq, and gossip protocol. Communication is based on QUIC, the same protocol supporting HTTP/3.
I think we get some leaking from hackernews. when a project gets big there, people just post links here without the original context.
Would you mind explaining what those things are?
I don’t know what they are.
Oops, I misread your comment 💀
Par for the course in much of the software industry. It infuriates me, as well.
for anyone that it helps: picture tailscale at the app level without having to be in the same tailnet first
