Yeah it'd need to be some kind of secondary infrastructure - I don't see it being part of any official IRC spec any time soon. But it would absolutely make IRC more appealing to the "average" user.
An IRC client with an extension for image/video embeds and a voice chat (with video/screenshare support) would go far.

I love seeing stuff like this, very nostalgic, looks amazing.

I really do miss the design of Windows 7 and the apps of that era (think Office 2007 style)
I hope it comes back

This is very impressive... The temptation to build my own now...

I'm looking forward to when they get federation support, so that I can finally convince people to move away from a certain popular chat platform.

I think more competition in the "AI Editor" space is good, but I have to ask – why not make it a VSCode extension? I feel it'd be much more accessible.
Are there limitations in the extension APIs that make it hard to implement?
Re:BlueJ – A Lightweight Java IDE

I remember having to use BlueJ at University... I found that it makes programming so much harder. New window for every file, no ctrl+click following references, no auto-formatter, no easy sidebar tree of files...
I ended up using vscode and just copying the files into BlueJ before submitting my assignments.
Re:460M Indian Internet Users Are Now on IPv6

NAT is not a security feature, nor is everything publicly exposed to the internet on IPv6. With most routers you would have to explicitly forward a port in the router to expose that to the client anyways.

This is something I've been wishing for for ages - I'm glad to find out it's a real thing now. It's a shame about the licensing, but it's a good start.
Re:Dav1d, fast AV1 decoder, version 1.0

SVT-AV1 has massively improved encoding speed. I was getting ~4x encode speed with some heavy compression (barely any noticeable quality drop) on 1080p/24fps footage on my Ryzen 7 3700X just yesterday.

I'm praying that Apple starts supporting AV1 soon...
