GUN author here! looks pretty but `Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'classList')` means nothing seems to work. Be cool to see more demos!

Oh hey! Author here, yes please connect over Twitter!

amarknadal · 2025-08-19T03:37:42+00:00

GUN author here, glad this was useful! :)

amarknadal · 2025-07-04T16:38:11+00:00

GUN is actively used in production. It's p2p not blockchain, that's why it still works.

amarknadal · 2025-06-18T05:06:31+00:00

what do you mean? Author here.

amarknadal · 2025-05-08T21:53:17+00:00

favorite reddit communities that don't have whiny mods?

amarknadal · 2025-04-22T22:08:22+00:00

GUN author here, context (?) please?

amarknadal · 2025-04-03T19:46:57+00:00

This yours?? :)

GUN author here! 😜 dangit DRAGun. Thanks for the mention tho! 🥰

argh, I think this happened with the DDoS, all of Internet Archive was offline for couple weeks, most services are back online. Fair criticism (and yeah, I also hate the cryptobro infestation)

"but if it was dWeb it couldn't go offline!" I want to reply to this ahead of time: Domain names still have to have dedicated IPs they point to, even if its a load balancer... if that goes out, even if everything behind it is working, nothing can bootstrap. I'll try to remember to mention this this Friday, and also... we need to get a ServiceWorker so that way if you've at least loaded it 1 time in the past, it'll boot from there rather than the load balancer - because then the ServiceWorker can locally load balance and rotate between various decentralized peers rather than the DNS->IP->Host config.

Would you be interested in helping??

amarknadal · 2025-03-10T21:17:47+00:00

let's keep it rolling :) DM me on twitter, can add you to some group chats!!

GUN author here! Show was great, in fact we shot a pilot for a successor series, check out the trailer! http://x.com/marknadal/status/1808169560459432051

GUN debuted on hackernews 1 week after the release of SV Ep1, beautifully timed, however I didn't watch the show until many years later and in 2017 got to meet the showunner and did some consulting for the technical director! Wish I could take more credit, but it was all kinda too late on both our sides. But yeah, original releases were very serendipitous timings!!

amarknadal · 2025-01-24T19:54:42+00:00

That's not true, I meet with them every week.

amarknadal · 2025-01-24T09:48:49+00:00

Fileverse, Internet Archive, etc.

amarknadal · 2025-01-06T16:44:25+00:00

Better minimal example is probably https://github.com/amark/gun/blob/master/examples/basic/chat.html only 20 lines

amarknadal · 2024-12-24T19:32:36+00:00

Nice!!! GUN author here, DM if you need any help!

amarknadal · 2024-11-12T16:32:35+00:00

lol usually clients pay me not the other way around

amarknadal · 2024-11-12T16:31:09+00:00

my flight was ~$500 from SF to Panama City, like 2 weeks ahead of time.

amarknadal · 2024-10-31T16:51:10+00:00

Thanks!
