Gobs of data (2011)
Summary: The Go programming language introduces the gob package, a new encoding for transmitting data structures across networks or storing them in files. Gobs are designed to be easy to use and efficient, with a focus on Go-specific environments. They work with the language in ways that externally-defined, language-independent encodings cannot. Gobs use reflection to eliminate the need for a separate interface definition language or protocol compiler, making them Go-centric and providing flexibility in encoding and decoding.

Building AI without a neural network
Summary: Hivekit aims to create a communicative fabric for real-world complex systems, enabling higher-level behaviors and self-organization. By building network infrastructure to connect people, vehicles, machines, and data sources, Hivekit provides a distributed spatial rules engine for processing large data streams and executing real-time instructions. This approach offers an alternative to neural networks and GPTs for problem-solving in dynamic environments and spatial reasoning.
