From the Pages
The universe has been computing at its maximum theoretical rate for the entire duration of its existence. The question is not whether the universe is computing. The question is what it's computing for.— The Virtual Machine Problem, Issue 004
The error correction codes that make quantum computers work are mathematically identical to the codes the universe uses to store information. This is not analogy. It is mathematical identity.— The Quantum Computing Race
This is not a proposal. This is a deployment report. 122,000 lines of code. Open source. The agents are working. The proofs are on-chain.— The Infrastructure Nobody Is Building
