If mass is proportionally equivalent to energy, then this can't be true. The photon is the fundamental energy unit. Right?

Then wouldn't it be "one-photon"? I've heard (but don't fully understand) that massed particles are simply photons trapped in toroidal vortices, which gives them an outward charge field and lets them interact with t

Nim defaults to this kind of stack management and value semantics, except the `ref` and `ptr` trapdoors are there whenever you need them. So like this, Nim requires no memory annotations or semantics for good, safe default behavior. Goose i

The turning point is approaching: Interest rates will gradually overtake all other gov't expenditures. All politics will revolve around shoring up the parasitic drain on the rest of absolutely everything.

Yeah, I got the impression that Reticulum's main claim is that it replaces the IP stack with a future-proof, encrypted protocol for routing regardless of the underlying network medium. Which is not an insigificant claim to test, but bo

There's a third way here. It could be called many things: Single ownership by default, automatic stack lifetimes, hidden unique pointers, etc. The main idea is that the lifetime of dynamic heap data is treated no differently to primiti

LLMs are vectoring towards solving problems of software quantity. What remains is judgment, caution, and taste for quality. Much as computers have made creation in other industries much easier, we're likely to see a glut of crap softwa

Nim does much the same. It prefers the stack, wraps dynamic heap types in value-semantic unique pointers by default, and avoids implicit copies wherever it can. I could see compiled languages trending in the stack-managed direction long ter

Are you seriously suggesting an encyclopedia should be packed with crackpot conspiracy theories, academic charlatanry, quackery, and agitprop? Or does that not defeat the point? Keep the author's biography, but his "theories"
