 roberth | John Ericson and team, I apologize. The correct answer was ni: URLs, IETF RFC 6920 | 22:31:08 |
| roberth |
ni:///sha-256;UyaQV-Ev4rdLoHyJJWCi11OHfrYv9E1aGQAlMO2X_-Q
Figure 1: Example ni URI

| roberth | Hashes Are What Count
| 22:32:03 |
| roberth | For an ni name of the form "ni://n-authority/alg;val?query-string"
the corresponding HTTP(S) URL produced by this mapping is
"http://h-authority/.well-known/ni/alg/val?query-string"
CA storage for NARs and tarballs?

| roberth | No need to retract 2.33 ;) | 22:37:46 |
| roberth | Well this was fun. Enjoy knowing about the existence of ni: URLs | 22:39:07 |

| roberth | That is actually very important, but unfortunately it is not truly optimized for effective transfer over bad radio connections | 23:18:10 |
| roberth | It's a start | 23:18:38 |

 John Ericson | The use of the semicolon is interesting | 02:38:02 |
| roberth | Nix vibes were in the air in 2013, but they forgot to press shift | 02:38:49 |
| roberth | the vibes were too faint | 02:39:12 |
| John Ericson | I think mailto urls use semicolon | 02:39:21 |
| John Ericson | I wonder if it is with different precedence | 02:39:35 |
| John Ericson | On Windows search paths use ; | 02:39:42 |
| John Ericson | Time for some fun ni url flakeref in NIX_PATH! | 02:40:10 |
