I'm working on a programming language which will allow fully automatic distributed computing by having everyone using the language participate in a SETI@HOME-style p2p network. I'm under no illusions about it being fast, but it's certainly fun.

Not really ready to share the URL yet, things are still coming together.




Are you targeting networks with or without malicious actors? I spend a lot of time thinking about the latter.


Very delayed response: I'm focused on first building it assuming the trustworthiness of the actors on the network; extending to trustless distributed computing is an even bigger tangle than I've already gotten myself into. Have you written about it anywhere? I'm always interested to hear how other people think about these things.
