Built FOC-CADE: multiplayer games, a paint canvas, a chat, and a coin-op jukebox with Filecoin Onchain Cloud as the only backend. No servers, no database. Every action is a signed JSON piece; every client folds the log. Chat and paint need no wallet at all. sgtpooki.github.io/foc-collab/

Infura shuts down its #ipfs service on Aug 15, dedicated gateways included. Anything pinned there that you haven't moved stops being served. One command downloads every pin with CIDs intact: `npx infura-rescue --project-id <ID> --project-secret <SECRET>` Guide: github.com/FilOzone/infura-rescue

We shipped content addressing to millions of users, then spent ~10 years pretending the spec already existed. 😅 Well, billions of CIDs later, it's finally real: the official CID spec is live on the @ipfs.tech specs. specs.ipfs.tech/cid/ Thanks @lidel.org and @robin.berjon.com

President of MIT not mincing words today in @statnews.com www.statnews.com/2026/05/27/s...
So let me say it as clearly as I can: Without basic scientific research, supported by the kind of farsighted public investment that allows large-scale, undirected, curiosity-driven inquiry, the scientific pipeline will run dry.
In daily life, people may not feel the effects right away, or even in 10 years. But we will feel it. And when someone we love needs therapies that could have emerged but didn't or when other countries now
investing in science can launch new science-based industries or run their societies on vast resources of fusion energy or reap the benefits of quantum computing power or advanced medical breakthroughs, America will wish it sustained its leadership in scientific research here and now.
Sally Kornbluth is the president of MIT.

on X: “which browser can i paste a CID into” Wild how IPFS gets flak for not being “built into browsers,” while BitTorrent needs a client and Tor needs its own browser. UX is about the same; easier, even, with ipfs-companion or gateways. The tech isn’t the problem 😬, the expectations are. #ipfs

Oddly enough, Firefox in Playwright behaves differently on a hard refresh compared to the actual browser. Or maybe the hack I had to do in Playwright to simulate a hard refresh is insufficient. Has anyone had to deal with this with service workers?
