I feel differently about it now but back in β€˜04 I did download a car
[code talk] #atproto I now have a snapshot dataset of ~4.8M car files - users that hit the new relay since it was started. I rigged up a node cluster (12 workers) that runs through the car files and dumps the follow graph into 12 different CSVs. Throughput bounces btwn 200-400ps https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:ragtjsm2j2vknwkz3zp4oxrd&cid=bafkreib3qnlh4bydtfrxmiu4f76ygmqsuzelu2m7vihnwyvfawdg4cs6cy
Oh cool, the voice actor from Alters is here RE:
Just finished Alters. Game of the year so far for me It's a blend of base management, cosmic horror survival, and branching-choice narrative. I enjoyed the gameplay all the way till the end, and found it challenging in a good way https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:ragtjsm2j2vknwkz3zp4oxrd&cid=bafkreihxvggt3ofpnurkqbgxk6txtnu5v6fexxlqheqawcwpr5udkrojma
Weekend rating: - Going to a live soccer match: 8/10 - Playing Alters: 9/10 shit is good - Watched the Wicked movie: it’s complicated - Seeing the news pop up on my phone: 0/10 - Dumplings: 10/10
Just checking something - quaid army?
I have lonely island's Shy Ronnie pt 2 stuck in my head which is some kind of glorious curse. It's genuinely good
The replies here are pretty good if you're curious about nostr vs atproto RE:
Been following this because I like Gunn's work, so it's cool to track such a large project for him. Worth a read if youre doing the same RE:
Whipped up a set of backfill scripts for my research box. It's just dumping the CAR files to disk at this stage. I'm rate-limiting myself at 100 DID lookups/s, and then have per-PDS schedulers which rate-limit repo fetches to 25/s. The DID lookups end up being the main throughput bottleneck https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:ragtjsm2j2vknwkz3zp4oxrd&cid=bafkreiajj4xbg5wydkj553qrgucypc4s4yauwg5thsnmbj2jozcfmvyana
