@internetturtle If a decent, performant Forth can be implemented on top of WASM, that would be a good start for me.

It's imperative that we stop thinking in 20th century terms. The next window of opportunity may be decades, or 100s of years down the road.

The anti-cloud, distributed hypercooperation, and the anti-corporate people's AI will be possible, but they will only be possible if we stop repeating the same mistakes of the past.

There is a window of opportunity for distributed architecture to flourish. After that window, if the means of memorisation aren't seized the zombie carcasses of legacy empires will fight tooth and nail for hegemonic discourse of post-capitalism.

Most medium range mobiles are getting between 32gb - 64gb storage in the next 2 years, 8-core processors, and 5G bandwidth in 5 years.
When the basic capacity for local computation is satisfied for most uses, even some complex ones, the central "cloud" is made redundant.
