Unfortunately, the Y Combinator does not work for Actor programs, which can implement non-deterministic procedures that cannot be implemented in the non-deterministic lambda calculus. For further information, see the following:

- jqgatsby 7y ago@ProfHewitt, I have to say I think you did a lot of people (including myself) a disservice by polluting Wikipedia with promotions of your original research on the Actor model of computation. Modelling concurrent computation is not the place for an intellectual "land grab"; if your work has value, I think it's time to let other people promote it for you.
- ProfHewitt 7y agoPersonal attacks have no place on Hacker News! Please confine your remarks to substantive issues. Hacker News is not a popularity contest. BTW. Wikipedia suffers many of the same bugs as other Internet Social Media. I started the Wikipedia article on the Actor Model. Unfortunately, the article is now extremely obsolete because of Wikipedia censorship. See the following for current information: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3418003 https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3418003 PS. It is invalid to criticize a scientist for publishing original research. Instead, publishing original research is a primary activity of scientists.
