What is submerging across contexts of life that might produce ready-ing for change?
Respect is not something that can be mandated;
The opposite of ready-ing is to force a single-purpose outcome upon a system that is oriented and shaped around pathways that do not correspond to the desired ‘change’.

What's In A Name, And Who's Asking?

the dynamic structure of the programming language was the dynamic structure of the document and it's just it's a different world 00:40:27 he he had to struggle with getting the programming language evolved and adapted into
This IS Intentional Programming
!- claim : NLS was a nascent Intentional Software System - It was not a language work bench - but a system oriented - a collaboration platform designed to bootstrap itself - into existence and continual improvement and in fact - it was kernel based - and at the heart it had a Command Language Interpreter - that allowed thinking and creating software - as a conversational system - driven by a command language - that was used to articulate the intentions - in terms of other intentions, combinations of intentions ultimately - groundrd in primitiver capabilities - that were implemented in machine code for the target system - migration from one machine to the next - system desigtners and devlopers were able to articulate - ideas and means of realizing those ideas in - self structured forms and used the same capabilities - to organize the embodiment of these intentions - in code that when run exhibited the desired behaviour
in fact when we had all all the programming languages that were in nls there was no text file for the 00:40:14 programs they were in the dynamic structure
when you edit in Wikipedia you're editing a text file and then somehow you generate a display out of that and in NLS and the system's Doug is proposing you edit the structure 00:40:02 directly and and the different views did you get or generated out of the structure
A program consists of a tree of nodes, each node being an instance of someintention
!- as in : NLS - see : https://docdrop.org/video/xQx-tuW9A4Q/#annotations:yiHKnFEIEe2RX5Mg4AKCqw
The enzymes can be written in IP itself, and new intentions may be also used in the enzymes themselves. Is thiscircular? Of course it is, but standard bootstrapping methods can ensure that a working copy of the system iskept at any time while the new enzymes are debugged
!- question : is this circular !- answer : of course it is - meta-circular
Identification is unambiguous and invariant, via thegraph-like pointers. Detail can be added at any point, without disturbing any other part of the tree
he source tree provides a solid substrate forrepresenting arbitrary intentions in a modular fashion.
One could say that the tree-like pointers are a little like S-expressions in Lisp, while the graph-like pointers define the object type in the object-oriented view.
LISP S-expressions + object oriented view
Needless to say, the declarations, and the details of the intentions are themselves also intention instances andreside within the source tree, typically, but not always, in a standard library.

Thenodes are each identified as an instance of the particular primitive intention by a ―graph-like‖ pointer to thedeclaration of the intention. The nodes also contain ―tree-like‖ pointers to any number of arguments as shown inthe following figure
!- repharase : - articulation of intentions by means of articulation of intents
actualize the programmer’s abstract desire, specific nodes are created by the programmer in the source tree.
!- response : - the programmer's desire is not abstract - IT is TACIT
―call a specialized instance of procedure P transformed with respect to second and third parameters andpartially inlined up to medium level; adapted to the present implementation of the first parameter, etc, etc.‖
The very idea of Programming is tied up with the concept of programming languages
with the death of programming languages programming itself should be laid to rest, the idea abandoned as one that was simply ill conceived
By programmer’s intention we meana desire that something be accomplished.
!- gloss : programmer's intention - a desire that something be accomplished - what do you really intend here
Intentional Software through Symmathesy
the software developer's intention is to articulate intentional concepts that capture the conditions for synthesyzing a new HyperMedia Space within which problems of interest can be solved, engagement of interest can be realized etc
The questions are b roader, more holistic system oriented like
A key element inprogramming is the forming of some intention in the programmer’s mind.
The contributions are in the form of a tree ofnodes, called the IP Source Tre
Without being overly pedantic, we should set the stage by admitting theobvious: programming systems exists because human programmers have ideas to contribute.

handful of gurus who used to control the means of abstraction
Indeed, the major promise of IP may not be the fixing of a finite number of mundane problems, but the enablingof the larger scale evolution of programming technology.
!- major promise : IP - - not : fixing of a finite number of mundane problems - - but : enabling largert scale evolution of programming technology
!- rehash as : Intentional Software - commons based, peer produced intentional constellations for Software as a conversation, mutual learning
Moreover, thedominant products can remain on the top only by continually evolving and improving and they are orders ofmagnitudes better in every respect than their pre-evolutionary prototypes.
pre-evolutionayr prototypes
value prop : intentional constellations
This means that the existing legacy code of the usersis no longer an albatross retarding innovation, but a valuable asset to which new services can be tied withoutlimit. Once encoded in terms of intentions, software assumes an invariant ―immortal‖ form, free from inherentobsolence.
!- meme : intentional software as "immortal form" - existing legacy articulations are assets - to which new servicdes can be tied to - composed of, re-mix re-use, re-purpose
!- meme : intentional software - beyond programming - beyond ontology
There emerged a smallnumber of dominant word processing packages, but there are a myriad of niche products also
Once the relatively expensive hardware box was made universal, the number of wordprocessors skyrocketed and the quality and power of the products greatly increased.
!- going : universal - make expensive dedicated hardware for word procdessoirs universal - resulting quality and power ofavailable solutions in any specific application domains increased
ncoded in terms of intentions,
One key property of intentions, as described in the sequel, is that they can coexist with each other―syntactically‖ and can be made to coexist ―semantically
―JOVIALl‖ that is ―Jules’ Own Version of the International Algorithmic Language‖. This was one small steptoward the intentional world)
!- about : JOVIALI - step towards the intentional world
Each intention carries the definition of its associated notation (―syntax‖) and implementations(―semantics‖) as attached method
arbage collection isanother meme: Lisp and Smalltalk carry it
features of thelanguages are the genes (or more precisely, information ―memes
Arbitrary type calculus, meta-work, domain-specific compilation knowledge, and information traditionally keptin ―good‖ comments should be expressible as part of the machine processable part of the program
as part of the machine processable part
not literal programming
!- response : - but articulate software as a conversations and mutual learning
matching any given fixed point.
question - what does it mean? : matching any given fixed point
guess :
n syntax, any notation should be acceptable.
!- need to go : beyond syntax and semantics
he issues of syntax, types, standards, and namingshould be delegated to the programmer
!- delegate : issues to programmer - syntax - types - standards - naming
!- response - naming is the key - universal means of articulation instead of just syntax - amenable to the "pun" that a machine processable description - can be interpreted to embody the intent thus describned - syntax is to make writing machine processable - types are indeed ubiquitous but are only the tip of the iceberg of thought vectors in intent space
contributions remain compatible even whendifferent choices or tradeoffs are made by different programmers
contributions compatible
!- ensure : not only - compatibiity, - mapping between intentional conceptualizations - but interoperabiity
Implementationdetail should be separable from computational intent, and any implementation should be accessible for a givenintention, including those matching any given fixed point.
!- separate : computational intent - from - implementation details - articulate intent in structures that reflect all the abstractions needed to cope conceptionally with what we are creating
!- make accessible : any implementation - for - any intent - including those matching any fixed point
a system for encoding the programmer’s contributions in units that correspond tothe programmer’s intentions, with arbitrary abstraction that does not incur run-time costs.
!- goal : intentional system - encode the programmer's contribution in units - that corresponds to the programmer's intention - arbitrary abstractions - no run-time costs incurred
!- questions? - whose intentions? - what kinds of abstractions?
why talk about the death of languages?

Because the verification key is embedded in the name, all names created with w3name are "self-certifying," meaning that you can validate any record published to that name without needing any other authority or "source of truth" than the name itself.
What's in a name?
w3name is a service that provides secure, stable identifiers for data that changes over time (also known as "mutable" data). It uses the IPNS protocol to seamlessly interoperate with the public IPFS network, so the links you create with w3name can be used with any IPFS client software or HTTP gateway.
