...which is the sense that we're talking about, when we talk about CRDTs.
- Dylan16807 2y agoWhen someone goes into detail about correct versus convergent, they are explaining how the technical sense is not what people really want, and you bluntly replying that it's solved (because it's technically solved) is unhelpful at best and misleading at worse.
- kiitos 2y agoA CRDT is a purely technical construct! Correctness (in terms of merge conflicts) is well-defined in that context and it's orthogonal to any kind of semantic/application definition! This is a bonkers conversation. It's like claiming integer division isn't correct because 5/2 should be 2.5 instead of 2.
