I'm so excited! I think the Scheme Primer is a really useful document not only for people interested in Scheme who want to get started fast, but also for people who want the distillation of some deeper computer science ideas but don't know where to start! spritely.institute/news/the-sprit…

We've published A Scheme Primer! spritely.institute/static/papers/… Blogpost: spritely.institute/news/the-sprit… This primer serves as a quick skim tutorial to get started fast, or as a more in-depth read... ending with the finale of a 30 line example of a Scheme interpreter written in Scheme!

Let me just bump this by saying: the proposed design fundamentally addresses the kinds of phishing vectors that we take for granted under web2, as if there is no other way but to laugh at the scammers impersonating anyone freely constantly.

The mint example is *the* traditional (but not only) example given for why synchronous operations are needed in ocap "vat" based systems. With no prior background, @Tsyesika shattered that claim on *week two* on the job!

Nobody is more excited than I am! Jessica is one of the most talented programmers I've ever had the pleasure to work with and ActivityPub wouldn't have happened without her hard work. So excited to get to work together every day again!

I've been working with @frandallfarmer (who has been doing this stuff for a long time) on better explaining the ideas. I look forward to sharing what we've been working on. In code, I have more these days prototyped, but not enough that sit in users' hands. Working on it...

But it's one thing to have the answers. It's another thing for people to understand them. This requires two things: good explanations, and to be able to get people to experience the solutions themselves.

That's the fundamental problem. The federated social web, as it exists, points at a *portion* of the solution. But not enough. In many ways, it has borrowed centralized assumptions. That's why I've been in research mode with @spritelyproject. I think we now have the answers.

Anti-abuse tools which rely on centralized, wholesale surveillance, particularly when such a mechanism is the primary revenue model of that centralized system, can only get more and more abusive to users over time.
