I'll suspect we'll still be interested when prologic comes to his senses and realises he doesn't want to have the guilt weighing on his immortal soul. |

Not that I'm qualified to judge whether Cisco is an employer that counts for or against one's immortal soul, but at least Cisco Cloud Services *can possibly* be used for good |

more on topic, I came here to offer https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10068943 which talks about various communication tools and early comments focus on threaded conversations for IRC-like messaging. |

wow, it *is* nested IRC: https://euphoria.io/room/welcome/ |

dotplus: the technology choices seem fun. Go, PostgreSQL, WebSockets, React |
| 12:11 |
|
prologic |
nice |

hm, "fun" is not my preferred criterion. Easy/familiar, mature, secure, performant all rank above "fun":) |

Joël Perras on Twitter: "People are starting to build decentralized, federated, self-hosted Slack clones. So basically IRC, but with pictures & github integrations.": https://mobile.twitter.com/jperras/status/633746258373447680 |

nice to see folks discussing xmpp, irc and rest with some solid info and facts |
| 23:30 |
|
pdurbin |
bear: would it make more sense to build a slack clone on top of IRC or XMPP? Or neither? |
| 23:31 |
|
bear |
xmpp IMO |
| 23:32 |
|
bear |
it allows for federated users to have multiple connnections |
| 23:42 |
|
prologic |
I agree with dotplus haha |
| 23:42 |
|
prologic |
so that's Python for me :) |

pdurbin: Slack basically _is_ IRC |
| 23:47 |
|
pdurbin |
sure seems like it |
| 23:47 |
|
pdurbin |
but I haven't used it much |
| 23:55 |

it's IRC like - but you can tell from it's IRC gateway that something on the other side is very much *not* IRC |
