This is the kind of answer I was looking for, thank you!
- Yeah I was lazy with saying ipv32 just to mean something excessively long. I didnt want to say ipv6, since I kinda think it needs to at least be 64bits (edit: ipv6 is actually 128bits), and really for a public-private key pair it should be larger, so more like 512 to avoid anything like the v4 v6 cacatestrophe again in 20 years with post quantum forms of asymetric key challenges. But I didnt feel like writing all that out.
- I'm with you. I knew I'd get people not reading and say "that's the ip address", but MAC address? ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
He got convinced, its now Auxolotl!
Theres going to be an official reevaluation once the governance has finished bootstrapping.
I read it as "a pin nix" like appendix with a lisp
Agreed, I made a thread for it. You've got some good names!
You should learn the nix lang, flakes, zero to nix, etc and try not to get bogged down in the Nix/Aux stuff. Be prepared to wait for things to settle down on that side.
Sadly no AFAIK, even ignoring the licensing issues.
I've been on a team where two co-chair leads bickered and eventually split. I was a member in both of the new teams (two projects) and both turned out great for different reasons.
I plan to do the same with Nix and Aux even if everyone else picks sides. And I'm glad the link was posted here.
Every phone number has one owner, but MAC addresses can have many owners. They're categorically different.
The same way phone calls try to find a phone when its powered off. Attempt, and then fail under a timeout.
Same place as the phone number registry. Or the domain name registry.
Yep the domain name registry and cell phone registry very much are AFAIK
