6This is actually my first time at EthDenver! There are several people who thought I'd been here in the past :)
7
8It's a pretty giant event now, mostly around many many side events.
9
10I'm here with Ryan from the [[Fission]] team, talking to potential users and partners for [[Everywhere Computer]].
11
12### IPFS Mainnet

15
16Ran this end of day event with the [IP Shipyard](https://ipshipyard.com) team, and Mosh from the emerging IPFS Foundation.
17
18### DeSci
19
20Talked to Edvard and Chris from DeSci Labs. They’ve been building a “Drive” tool that uses and caches UnixFS in order to have a performant file storage interface.
21
22We’re going to connect and talk about WNFS and CAR Mirror.

24### Ronen
25
26Ronen reached out via a Twitter DM and we arranged to meet for an afternoon coffee.
27
28It ended up being a great wide ranging conversation.
29
30The idea is to move science / academia conversations from being trapped on Twitter to cross posting on different systems, and also potentially enrich posts semantically in different ways.
31
32I talked about [[Fedica]] and how I [[2024-01-06-mostly-posse|do cross posting]].
33
34I talked about my [[Twitter#Archive|Twitter Archive using Tweetback]].
35
36We talked a bit about what kind of “extra” things you might get from using the cross poster.
37
38One idea could be Technorati-style curated tag pages that are public.
39
40The [[Forem]] software which powers communities like [Dev.to](https://dev.to) have curated tags already.
41
42TODO: find my link / write up of Tweetstorm
43
44We had the usual-for-me conversation about Semantic Web: I don’t think RDF and SPARQL give apps that are performant or have good UX — and it’s too complicated for developers to work with.
45### Blueyard Conversations

47Tapped [[Evin]]’s fingernails to get connected on [Disco’s IRL app](https://irl.disco.xyz/)

49### Saturday
50
51A long day! Great meeting with W3S team to sync on what they are building. A hot storage layer for Filecoin.
52
53Dropped in at Beyond the Base Layer. Adrian Brink said to minimize global consensus and just operate on “local” state. This is the plan for EC Subnets.
54
55Graph Paper Capital Brunch. Talked to Vitaly from Merklebots who are doing local factory robots, as well as a Polkadot parachain for smart home devices. They do lots of things on IPFS.
