distributed systems

let's invent a cool distributed "site" thing (not an actual site)

Check em!

Yet another one?

A site is given by a category C and a set Cov(C) of families of morphisms with fixed target {U_i -> U}_{i in I} satisfying the following axioms
(1) If V -> U is an isomorphism then {V -> U} in Cov(C).
(2) If {U_i -> U}_{i in I} in (C) and for each i we have {V_ij -> U_i}_{j in Ji} in Cov(C), then {V_ij -> U}_{i in I, j in Ji} in Cov(C).
(3) If {U_i -> U}_{i in I} in Cov(C) and V -> U is a morphism of C then U_i x_U V exists for all i and {U_i x_UV -> V}_{i in I} in Cov(C).

This is a story about a little girl in Scotland who hated life so much that she wanted to destroy every last trace of herself. She finally decided to commit suicide, and shortly afterwards her family found out what she’d done.

>In a horrible twist, every member of her family died only a few days later too, their limbs torn apart. The legend says that when you learn about the White Death, the girl’s ghost might come and find you, and knock repeatedly on your door. Each knock gets louder, till you open the door and she kills you for fear that you’ll tell someone else of her existence; her main goal is to prevent anyone from knowing about her.

We'll see if she can get past the nasty end of my shotgun.

This is a story about a little obama in washington who hated leaks so much that he wanted to imprison for life every last trace of whistleblowers. He finally decided to authorize himself to indefinitely imprison americans and kill them with drones, and shortly afterwards Julian Assange, Edward Snowden, Bradley Manning, Barret Brown, Michael Hastings, and Aaron Swartz found out what he’d done.

In a horrible twist, every whistle blower died only a few days later too, their limbs blown apart by hellfire missiles. The legend says that when you learn about the NSA leaks, the obama's administration might come and find you, and target lock repeatedly on your door. Each lock gets more accurate, till a gatling gun opens fire and he kills you for fear that you’ll tell someone else the leaks; his main goal is to prevent anyone from knowing about the leaks.
