After we have Smell-O-Vision[0] we should work on the next big step for the internet:

<[SA]HatfulOfHollow> i'm going to become rich and famous after i invent a device that allows you to stab people in the face over the internet

Could this be implemented in Rust or Clojure?

Does Anglican kind of do this?

Reminds me of FoundationDB and Antithesis[0].

I want a link to the GitHub for this[0] which he linked to. Makes Prolog quite interesting.

Yeah, it looks interesting. I would give it a spin. Maybe then I could finally make a MUD in Prolog. :D

What about Haskell STM versus OCaml Multicore Eio?

Kcas is the Haskell STM analogue in OCaml https://github.com/ocaml-multicore/kcas/

A good article that is critical of the previous book by Weiner ("Legacy of Ashes") is this article[0].

Here is a quote from it: "A Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist has distorted what was said, why it was said, when it was said, and the circumstances under which it was said—all to support his thesis that CIA has been a continuous failure from 1947 up to the present. Weiner’s use of the plural 'final gatherings' in the excerpt from his account suggests he knows what he is doing."

The author was not only a longtime CIA employee, but staff historian. Not the most trustworthy source here.

Well I assume the NSA is competent, not sure about CIA.

This was posted yesterday[0] but I think it is something that should get more attention.

Awesome!

I would pay for a layman’s book that explained how all 4 parts were solved.

I am a proud cosmist!

Sorry, didn't check Algolia properly. My fault.
