Horn clause - Wikipedia
In mathematical logic and logic programming, a Horn clause is a logical formula of a particular rule-like form that gives it useful properties for use in logic programming, formal specification, universal algebra and model theory. Horn clauses are named for the logician Alfred Horn, who first pointed out their significance in 1951.[1]

IPCM: Solving Dynamic IPFS Content with Blockchain Smart Contracts
Over the past few years, IPFS has become the default file network for offchain storage. When you combine immutable files with an immutable blockchain ledger, you get a powerful combination. While immutability is key to IPFS, it has also become one of its downsides. There are many crypto and blockchain
What is Private IPFS?
If you have been in the blockchain and crypto space, then there is a chance you've heard of IPFS and how it's used for offchain storage. In many ways, it's a perfect pairing: content on IPFS gets a hash that can be verified, it works as an address, and referencing

The Lessons of Lucasfilm's Habitat | Journal For Virtual Worlds Research
Habitat is a "multi-player online virtual environment", created by Lucasfilm Games, a division of LucasArts Entertainment Company, in association with Quantum Computer Services, Inc. It was arguably one of the first attempts to create a very large scale commercial multi-user virtual environment in 1985. The system we developed could support a population of thousands of users in a single shared cyberspace. Habitat presented its users with a real-time animated view into an online simulated world in which users could communicate, play games, go on adventures, fall in love, get married, get divorced, start businesses, found religions, wage wars, protest against them, and experiment with self-government. Our experiences developing the Habitat system, and managing the virtual world that resulted, offer a number of interesting and important lessons for prospective cyberspace architects. The purpose of this paper is to discuss some of these lessons. We hoped that the next generation of builders of virtual worlds can benefit from our experiences and (especially) from our mistakes.

Data evolution with set-theoretic types - Dashbit Blog
We explore how set-theoretic types could address how many statically typed languages do not allow libraries to evolve their public data definitions in a backwards compatible manner. The proposed solution aims to be automatically verified by the compiler and type safe.
