"""
Where Gleason requires interlocking constraints from three or more orthogonal directions at a single depth, this proof generates an infinite tower of consistency conditions across depths. The same correlation function must satisfy the composition rule at every scale simultaneously. "Enough dimensions" is replaced by "enough scales." Depth does the constraining work that width cannot.

Jesus: So Franz, you remember what we talked about?
Kafka: Bureaucracy is a bitch
Jesus: Me dude, get over it. Nothing we can do that, the other thing
Kafka: Right, append only logs, everything is a projection
Jesus: And?

God: And how much storage are they using?
Michael: All of it sir, every possible branch. They're calling "many worlds"

Michael: Sir, we might have a problem. One of my juniors down on Earth auto merged an AI generated PR and we might have replaced the Kafta event log with a big React Store
God: And?
Michael: Well, they've already built a theory around it. Relatively general or something
God: They'll figure it out

If physics frameworks were data stores:

Copenhagen :: sqlite3 - in memory / pre-ACID compliance
Many-worlds :: fork the db on write, no GC
Decoherence :: DynamoDB

The actual universe :: unfortunately it's BitCoin but at least the real thing does something useful unlike all the cryptobros and their pretend money

Maybe all y'all physics folk should talk to an Ops guy once in a while so you stop writing software that just can't possibly run

--- yoneda, in a whimsical riff on the idea that testing the exchange boundary between composing layers of your architecture is sufficient if the surface area of the boundary has been sufficiently constrained through grammar as the test surface and exchange surface are isomorphic in a well tested system and that was his idea all along

Procedural TDD is like writing instructions for a machine you haven't built to verify the behaviour for something you haven't defined. The output is going to look like the process. I have no idea what annoyed RSpec looks like in real life, but I expect he develops in Rails.

Verify the shapes. The increase geometrically with the surface area so it encourages good system design.

A queue holds potential
Potential burns through a boundary
The burning writes the tape

It's not bits, it's maybes so you have a good chance of getting to go, not for sure, your moms need to talk or summin'. When they do, they'll probably find out that neither of you slept over last weekend, so maybe likely means no

That's entropy
That's computation
That's you trying to sleep over at Stacy's next weekend but really there's a party at Brad's or summin'
They're hard problems, they all are

Church and Turing saw Calculus and the tape

The queue is the potential, the calculus of what could be
The tape is the record of what was, the constraints for what can be next

Two systems, what burns and what's left

Just like the stars, and how we describe them

The hard problems aren't hard if you look at them right. If momentum and position are conjugate terms, why wouldn't the math that we use to describe them take on a similar form?
