Recently I figured Kademlia is how bittorrent achieves trackerless torrents. I used bittorrent-dht[0][1] to build simple decentralised ride hailing app(was able implement POC with end to end booking). I wonder what other modern problems can be solved by this technology
Problem: When browsing internet, I often come across really great blog/project/website etc. Its always good go back to origin of where I found it(let it be HN/reddit thread or some obscure blog). Most of the time I don't remember original source where did I find it mostly because its either in my pocket list or lost in dozens of tabs. this chrome extension will keep of all links i visited and their referrer(full urls not domain).
Problem: Being rails developer, I love ORM(debatable). its very useful to quickly inspect data or run some manipulation. recently I was manipulating some CSV files, as well as sqlite db. I hate writing raw SQL for simple queries. so wanted to create a command-line tool where i can run simple queries (table.count, table.where(id > 3)) and get results. this should also work with CSV or any other db
