Reimagining Knowledge, Code, and Cooperation for a Forkable Future
We no longer suffer from a lack of information. We suffer from the cost of maintaining meaning across time.
Mobius is a proof by construction. The thesis: the Hobbesian equilibrium — where defection is rational and cooperation is naive — is not a fact of human nature. It is a structural consequence of fog. Remove the fog, and cooperation becomes the natural equilibrium. Not because…
Today I'm tagging bb.scm v0.1.0 — the another release of the Möbius, a Chez-Scheme implementation of a content-addressed programming language where code identity is structural, not nominal. Same algorithm in Tamazight, Arabic, French, English → identical SHA-256 hash, after de…
A reply to AI as a Fascist Artifact
Comment le logiciel libre est devenu une ressource extractible — et ce que ça a fait aux personnes qui écrivent du code
Imagine a student in Tizi Ouzou builds a small database of Kabyle proverbs. Each proverb has a text, a translation, a theme, maybe a region where it's commonly heard. She doesn't study database design. She just describes what she knows: this proverb has these properties.
Dear Janko,
I published a benchmark report comparing 15 HTTP server implementations across C, Rust, Java, Scheme, Go, Node.js, Deno, Bun, Gleam, Common Lisp, Python, Ruby, and Racket. Scheme (pico + iouring) placed fifth overall at 222k req/s — behind C (h2o), Rust (axum), Java (Vert.x),…
Cet outil est construit pour enquêter dans des bases de données structurées. Les données structurées sont organisées en documents de plusieurs parties aussi souvent appelées champs, et où chaque champ a une typologie stricte, qui ne varient pas de document en document : cela…
A problem can have several solutions. A solution can have different implementations each of which with their own strengths and weakness in terms of space, time and generality.
I am investigating this pattern combinator thing, because pattern are everywhere in programming e.g Chomsky's grammars, and also Machine Learning. The thing I am trying to build is different from Machine Learning pattern recognition. Pattern combinators are neither supervised…
Last couple of weeks I learned about:
Dear Mez Breeze,
