here you may find rambling thoughts, assorted collected information, incomplete research and creations, and admirations from trystimuli. below are some recently updated pages for your perusal.
Vernodes is a computer storage paradigm enabling distributed collaboration, either in real time or with disconnected operation.
There are a variety of similar systems and designs to versioned nodes. However, they all are designed for narrower applications, and do not quite implement the paradigm.
i came across “our operating systems are incorrectly factored” recently and have been contemplating its critque of “everything is byte sequences” with regards to versioned nodes.
what would the world look like if, instead of copyright, sales of creative works included a statement of how much the creators were paid out of this sale?
Byte trees are a general purpose format for storing byte-oriented data in versioned nodes.
Converge is the prototype exchange format for versioned node. It provides fully featured blobs and versions, including braid migration, in encrypted and unencrypted flavors. The encoding with atlv is compact and simple to parse and build. And the cryptography is arranged for compact and efficient implementations.
