We (Guix) are already working towards the abstract goal of this project,
because what Guix does is effectively provenance tracking for
computations. Guix' package dependency graph
be working towards this fantastical
goal?

My understanding is that the project just started and hasn't much to
show for now. It's on my
I'm not sure I think this is their git hub repo after a quick search,
https://github.com/underlay,... might be worth looking at 'solid' mit project,
Im not sure but I think it shares similar underlying infrastructure with linked
data structures on ipfs.

Hi Marco, agree this isn't the forum (so I apologies for adding more to
the disussion), but I sympathize with your view, I'm not a natural
scientist, about as far from it, I'm a physician, who are generally as
different from academics as physicians are from surgeons. I work as an

I have no idea how numerous we are, but yes, there are. As for myself,
I am in computational biophysics.

Dear Marco,
I don't think this is the place to discuss the ins and outs of
science. The scientific community and arena can be frustrating and I
would say (i.e., as an opinion) that you should only work in science
if the subject itself grabs you. I left the software industry for
biology 15 years
