I'm working on content-addressable Web. In particular, on a content-dependent hash function (CDT) and the BLOCKSET (content-addressable personal storage)

FunctionalScript team plans to re-design their NaNVM: https://medium.com/@sergeyshandar/nanvm-re-architecture-8097f766ec1c?sk=d14ec1daf73ac5442f12ce20b2bc037a

Elliptic curves on FunctionalScript. Including Secp256k1, which is used in Bitcoin and Nostr. https://github.com/functionalscript/functionalscript/blob/main/secp/test.f.cjs#L45 #elliptic_curve #JavaScript #FunctionalScript

Also, I form different opinions on the free speech of someone from the street and a public political figure. In the first case, I form an opinion about social problems. In the second case, I form an opinion about the figure. Yes, I expect more social problem solutions from a politician than from a clown.

I think there's one big misunderstanding of my opinion. Let me try to clarify: I'm not opposed to a public figure mocking a disabled person. Or anyone else. I'm for freedom of speech. Actually, it helps me to form an opinion about these people and their values.

Also, there are multiple minor misunderstandings. Such as "only", criticism vs. mocking, and "deserve".

Innovation is only progressive if it raises society's median well-being without harming significant groups. Otherwise, it's simply regress and degradation. #progress #innovation #society #ai

I'm changing FunctionalScript's license from MIT to AGPL. The last version of FunctionalScript, with the MIT license, was 0.0.559. https://github.com/functionalscript/functionalscript/pull/279 #functionalscript #license

I noticed that there has always been at least one point in the past when I significantly changed my opinion about a public figure. These things are so low that they can't be hidden or excused by media and show the person's real nature. For putin, it was "Dima Yakovlev law". For Mask, it was "Pedo guy". For Trump, it was "Mocking of a disabled journalist".

As a dilettante in quantum physics, I think that real randomness can only exist in the Multiverse; a Hidden-variables universe would produce only pseudo-randomness. #physics #quantum #randomness #multiverse

After watching the news for the last few days, I came to the conclusion that humanity still has some hope. #news #usa #politics

Unpopular opinion: we should always use little-endian instead of big-endian: https://github.com/sergey-shandar/public/blob/main/articles/endian.md #programming #math

We're developing a VM for FunctionalScript, which is a purely functional subset of JavaScript. During the development, we realized that there could be another useful subset of FunctionalScript for data formats, as an alternative to JSON, YAML, TOML, etc. https://medium.com/@sasha.gil/bridging-the-gap-from-json-to-javascript-without-dsls-fee273573f1b #JSON #JavaScript #FunctionalProgramming

If you accidentally forget that putin is a fascist fiend, he will always remind you about it.

I've never been to Colorado, but I already love it!

It's sad to see how he moves increasingly toward conspiracy theories.
