15:06 pdurbin prologic: ^^
16:47 prologic hah
16:47 prologic so true
16:47 prologic and if you look at it this way everything new is now based on or around IRC
16:47 prologic Slack, Hipchat, Gitter
17:04 pdurbin Check out this guy from Twitch: "I have millions of active users chatting on my irc network 24/7" https://twitter.com/bizzyunderscore/status/942103417102647296
17:29 prologic millions?
17:29 prologic wow
17:30 prologic is this the Twitch IRC network or something?

17:33 prologic https://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/articles/1302780-twitch-irc
18:38 pdurbin prologic: I think a basic account on Twitch is free (and probably has ads)
18:39 prologic wtf is Twitch anyway?
18:40 prologic Twitch is a live streaming video platform owned by Twitch Interactive, a subsidiary of Amazon.com. Introduced in June 2011 as a spin-off of the general-interest streaming platform, Justin.tv, the site primarily focuses on video game live streaming, including broadcasts of eSports competitions, in addition to creative content, ...
18:40 prologic Oh I see
18:40 prologic nah no interest :)
18:41 pdurbin I have enough accounts. :)
18:43 pdurbin Millions of active users on an IRC network is an interesting thought, though. :)
18:44 prologic sure is
18:44 prologic would make dashbaords like this (https://grafana.mills.io/dashboard/db/eris?refresh=10s&orgId=1) way more interesting :)
18:48 pdurbin A dozen active connections. More than my IRC network. :)
19:04 prologic Yeah but the message and come and write some not very impressive
19:04 prologic Err
19:05 prologic Message and. Oman’s rates
19:06 pdurbin 1.5 messages per second for the last seven days. That sounds like a lot to me.
20:13 prologic How did you work that one out?!
20:28 pdurbin https://grafana.mills.io/dashboard/db/eris?refresh=10s&orgId=1&panelId=14&fullscreen&from=now-7d&to=now
20:55 prologic Oh I see
20:56 prologic We spoke to 1 message/s a few times
20:56 prologic Spiked
22:22 bear with twitch the users have no idea it's IRC behind the scenes - their web client hides the details
22:22 bear but it lets them run bots and crowd control using tried and true methods and be very distributed
22:23 pdurbin I can only assume Twitch runs the largest IRC network ever.
22:25 bear as popular as live streams are... yea
22:25 pdurbin It's comforting to think that IRC scales to millions of users.
22:37 prologic yeah
22:37 prologic Twitch has to be the most successful modern IRC network to date
22:37 prologic amazing shit really
22:38 prologic and I think honestly the best part is that they didn't bastardize it -- you can actually connect to their irc network with your twitch account
22:40 pdurbin Which ircd do you think they run? I don't even know the options, really.
22:49 prologic don't know since i need a twitch account to actually connect
22:50 prologic you'd find out in the first few numeric responses
22:50 prologic if I had to guess I'd say inspiricd
22:51 bear that or hybrid - but it's heavily customized IIRC
23:04 prologic oh in all likilhood yes
23:04 prologic just like Eris is customized :)
23:05 prologic speak standard IRC so clients don't reak out but customize the ircd all you want
