Many things about ABE sound hard to believe because conventional interpretations of them often entail contradictions. The title of this post is one such truism about ABE. Yet, the sentence means exactly what it says and exactly what you really think it means. I’ve been planning to write this post for a long time, but […]
I recently had the opportunity to give a talk at RacketCon. It was a chance to demonstrate what ABE looks like in practice as we prototype this new economic paradigm in open source software projects. Briefly, if you’re not familiar, Attribution Based Economics (ABE) is a basis for an ambitious new economic system in which […]
In case you missed it, I recently gave a talk at EmacsConf on Attribution-Based Economics: Although the scope of ABE is very wide, we are starting somewhere where traditional economic systems clearly don’t work, to prove the concept before branching out into other regimes where traditional systems do work (albeit poorly, in many respects). The […]
I recently saw this story [1] in my news feed about a new model in physics. While I cannot comment on the specifics of the work, one aspect of it rings true. Unlike other efforts I’ve seen, this one has the property that the model proposed seems to be scale invariant, meaning that the same […]

The first is the refinement of the economic model proposed in the work with a powerful new abstraction called “dialectical mirror,” and the second is the development of a/the natural foundation […]
I appreciate the recent outpouring of support and the opportunity to reconnect with so many of you. I can’t be sure when or if I’ll ever be “back,” but I’m heartened to know that I am not forgotten. Some of you are probably wondering what happens next, so I’m going to start to address that […]
c. Jan 18, 2016 To Whom It May Concern: It’s been a little while since I first released this work. Here at last is the next major update: http://self.drym.com/IALS.pdf As before, the evolving work is hosted here: https://github.com/countvajhula/identity Somewhere along the way I also wrote up a personal account of the events behind the paper. […]
I hereby release this work into the world context. Here’s a direct link to the latest PDF. The project is currently hosted at GitHub. Note to the Reader Dear Reader: My intention when I first embarked on this project was for it to be accessible to “the person in the street.” My reason for this stems […]
