March 28th 2006 at 9:01 pm in General This afternoon, when I was off work, I grabbed the old UNIX terminal to build myself a prototype of an idea I had some time ago. At this moment, the article describing the concept is password-protected so not everybody can read it.
The solution itself is quite elegant and it probably has been thought of before but I haven’t really seen it. (Update: actually, I have found that the concept itself seems to have a name: “delta-compressed storage”.)
That said, this will probably be one of those projects I will put a lot of personal time into and to put it on some shelf somewhere. We’ll see where this heads.
In the future, I might even unlock the article — or just delete it. I don’t know…
