unbelievable. so, i was unable to reach https://smesh.mleku.dev - my daily driver, jumble fork that i made months ago.
the fix? set caddy to compress using zstd, application blob shrinks from 4mb to 1mb and it loads almost immediately.
un. fucking. *ugh*

https://git.smesh.lol/moxie/blob/docs/axioms.md
this is an explanation of everything about how #moxie works.
the moxie language is the pure product of two axioms, everything else is the product of these two constraints:
1 everything is explicitly declared
2 nothing is shared, everything has exactly one owner
the one resource that is shared is channels, and these are partitioned by state, every channel is a bidirectional pair, each of the pairs is split by role, one reads, the other writes. so the axiom still holds, the boundary is a fast userspace mutex (i am reading, or you are writing, and the opposite on the other direction)

nope, looks interesting but it reads like a kernal problem. language only secondary (correctness)
mleku12h
actually, moxie's problems are going to come from programmer errors about liveness. the bug classes you will see in moxie code will be deadlocks, live locks, spinning and unhandled failures. but the tradeoff it makes for that is that you stop thinking about the program as a... well... script, or linear sequence, you have to think about how the code interacts at the seams between the units.
moxie doesn't allow sharing, so where it gets more difficult will be that it forces you to architect before you build. i think that's a worthwhile tradeoff, but most programmers won't. the thing is, the programmers job now, with AI, IS architecture. the algorithms are less important. they matter in small places but not as much as the architecture.
mleku21h
i could use this also, but i need to get a consul to do some shit for me that i can't do.
mleku22h
it's doubly retarded because space is very hostile to electronics. x-rays everywhere.
mleku12h
yeah, it's not going to be a popular language because it doesn't let you think about software the way you are used to. it makes you think about software the way the machine needs to have it expressed. it's a common opinion among programmers that convenient abstractions make a language better but incorrect abstractions cause bugs. the abstractions of C led to stack overflows. the abstractions of Go lead to race conditions. the abstractions of Moxie are as thin as they can be and model the processing instead of the way of thinking about it.

oh yeah, i mean, it's top shelf japanese dystopian futurism for sure. and there is all kinds of reasons why centralization and high tech go this route, mostly economic and psychology, and also why a true high tech society has to abandon the center in order to *survive* but that part of it isn't really explored, it doesn't fit the player-hero narrative path, well, it can fit it better but yeah. and also, all the games and most of the stories i love are dystopian and apocalyptic. i've seen many snippets out of these conversations in MGS it's one of the icons up there next GTA:SA that said things that were worth repeating.
mleku2d
well stop using it then. you'd be doing the world a favor.
mleku2d
ok, you build the nostr based distributed github first, deal?
mleku14h
as a long time student of computer and machine languages, my argument runs like this: the language should articulate the relationships and architecture of the hardware. a machine language that matches the machine better is one that a machine will reason about better to build the software. that's what https://git.smesh.lol/moxie is about. moxie is a programming language that models a computer as a distributed system of multiple, communicating processes, just as a CPU is a distributed system of processors, connected by a bus and drowning in a complex array of caches designed to simulate a von neumann machine. the hardware itself is trying to protect a fiction that has been out of date since the first time a motherboard had two CPU slots on it.

#moxie is almost done, at least as far as it successfuly builds the smesh web app and moxie version of the orly relay. tomorrow i will be bumping my VPS for another month and deploying https://smesh.lol again, which is a demo of the nostr web app code i have written, including a relay proxy which fetches and caches events for the presentation layer, and the relay itself. tomorrow i will be testing the app and ensuring it all works correctly, and finally i will be able to switch back to it, and sweep a few standing bugs in it that led to me not running it anymore. i had changed moxie too much already 2 months ago to keep bug fixing it, the compiler was in a state of flux still, and now it is practically settled and complete. all the memory runtime is working correctly now, on the new model, with the actor/CSP architecture, compiles nicely to amd64 and wasm32 code and runs apps in browser and on a linux system.
the big reason why i'm focusing on this now is not unrelated to the contracts i have got to complete, because both apps require web front ends, and the moxie front end system is mostly complete on teh nostr side, the work required there was part of both of the contracts i have got to complete over the next few months. one is an atomic swap client, and the other is an app something like a hybrid of bandcamp and discogs, with full collaborative features for people in the music business, including live and recorded music, retail of digital formats, forum, sales of physical items and ticketing, as well as logging and enabling collaborative recording of information about all of these things.
will be lots of fun, and having a fast and secure language base to build these on the work will progress fast because one of the goals of moxie is this: build the parts once, build it right, and enable it to be composed like you assemble lego.
i have my own personal projects still on the horizon, but for those moxie is also foundational. i will be working on iskra translator, a lattice based semantic lattice data engine that has already achieved substantial translation accuracy in english/japanese, and i have some new algorithms to add to it that will allow it to brute force solving how to translate the remaining round trip failures correctly. ultimately, iskra will be a full artificial intelligence system, and translation is the base layer of a useful artificial intelligence, and the simplest problem, creating 1 to 1 perfect round trip capable translations with a machine using an algorithm that is low compute and can even run inside a web application, but completely offline, not needing to query a big server, the user's system downloads the lattice, and runs arbitrary translations with equal or better quality as big tech translation services. it's just the proof of concept of the engine, which can learn independently, be expanded and used by users and eventually will also be able to share lattice fragments peer to peer so that users wlll be able to make it the best translation system available on teh internet.
inference is a subsequent step, and requires more complex access patterns to translation, translation is just finding paths and word order transformations that achieve a round trip translation, into one language, and back, exactly as it was originally, inference is where you start with a prompt, and then generate a useful answer to questions or commentary on statements. the inference/generative work requires more complex algorithms. i'm going to be referencing the transformer architecture and the attention heads, and transforming this into algorithms that walk the semantic lattice to generate answers. it also requires further abstractions in the data structure of the lattice, phrases and sentences and even paragraph templates that populate out of inputs using attention to pick up the relevant nodes in the lattice to generate. it's a lot of work. but the fact it can already translate, directly implies that the remaining work is compositional, and will build on top of what it can already do.

yeah, i didn't really know much about yogi berra but your transitional display name change made me think of it, something about goji berries it was, and i was like "gojiberra" haha. but yeah, pretty cool guy, at least, rather quotable.
i only really knew of him relating to the baseball but i think yogi bear was somewhat inspired by him, with his pithy silly sayings, but supposedly hanna barbera denies they invented the character based on the guy. anyway, i think it fits you because you aren't any kind of accomplished intellectual but you do seem to be pretty clever and try your hand at a lot of things.
the funniest thing is the relationship between goji and yogi. yogi was his nickname because he liked to sit cross legged like a yoga practitioner meditating. goji, is a berry that comes from the himalayas. and being what your actual name is, it's all quite neat. just sayin' but i think it's cool.

and i couldn't help but notice, one of the mentions in there about the sims on this jet-drone's mobile internet connection setup has KAZAKHSTAN sims in it. the same shit that my friend here in the hostel had to spend half an hour doing a whole skinner pigeon dance to activate for me.
incredible. but no problem, kazakh sim easily acquired by russia. honest person who just wants to do some vibe coding on a compiler, this thing is practically unobtanium without a friend with a kazakh passport and tax registration

not gonna apologise for this either but the catholic, and derivative protestant doctrines about "christ is king" and "died for our sins" jazz is out of kilter with the philosophical message in the new testament as well. easy to adopt a religion that is bullshit in the first place. born out of some supposed conversion during a battle seeing the cross. the cross even, the christians symbol was the icthus, the fish, and the latinic X/P symbol that catholics uses (hristos rex) is syncretic post-christian latinization, since Rex is also not a greek word but hristos IS

so, because the kazakh ministry of foreign affairs hasn't got off their arses and whipped the almaty police into sending me my passport, i'm just applying for a replacement passport in two days time on expedited processing.
there is no pending order blocking me from leaving, i just am now in a situation where i will pay between $90 and $250 fine for overstaying
and because i'm forced to overstay, i can go to bishkek instead of going direct to georgia, one day overstay - which i could have done anyway, is no fine anyway, and i can stay and work in bishkek for a couple of weeks and obviously i'll do whatever i have to do here stay here, and work here, and get my contracts progressed a decent amount in the meantime, then i get my passport replacement, and then i'm immediately getting a train ticket to almaty, and from there i get a taxi to bishkek, so about $140 in total, and i'm in bishkek, rent the better option there for hostel, i can work in the kitchen there just fine, progress my contract work further, and then after the end of october, i go to georgia, where i can then pretty easily get an actual bank account, rent a house on the edge of town, and work in peace.
and i'll be chasing up fiverr and upwork contracts once my current commitments are shipped, and get as much of them as possible, and save my ass off and after i've done that for a year, then i'm back in kyrgyzstan, get my digital nomad residence, and start the 5 year clock until i can apply for citizenship.
everything is going to be fine. that asshole doctor, the shitty bolt scooter that wheelied and broke my leg, they are all going to hell. the police too. all of them. straight to hell.
i'll get to spend a couple weeks back in bishkek too. bishkek is a nice city. better than anything in kazakhstan. astana is cold and sterile and looks expensive. almaty is more trad old school post soviet but a little too hip especially in the center of town. bishkek is a bit more grungy, and the russian dominated areas are more like old school 60s/70s style ferroconcrete prefab that reminded me a lot of belgrade and i found similar areas in tbilisi also. idk, anyway i'm not planning to stay in the city. just simply because i'm gonna be stuck overstaying, the clock resets on my stay time for kyrgyzstan so i can go there and work until november and then start my georgia stay then.

## why so cheap?
i live on the steppe. my rent is a yurt, my overhead is food and bandwidth.
