My home network is millions of ants with tiny little backpacks

you'll never believe this

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The backpacks themselves? I'm glad you asked. So, they each function on an actor model, where each potential state for each actor has its own address...

[–] into_highest_invite@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

are there quintillions of states

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

No, actually tbh the address space is the least of my worries. At this point I'm gonna be honest, the ants just don't wanna play ball
