I got a partial understanding of inets from previous exploration but i feel like I'm failing to fully grok the intended denotation/semantics for any inet

yeah but arguably isn't that unavoidable? same way that if you got a randomly generated lambda calculus string its semantic meaning would also be inscrutable

lmao i love that you think i know more about this stuff than you do 😂

yes, but exactly for the purpose of trying to understand INs better!

that's actually the main reason why i made this, to have a way to get hands-on with INs so i can finally start to build some intuitions for them

i am going to assume no so that i may continue talking. it's been a few years since I saw news about the project, but my recollection is that bend and HVM are (respectively) high- and low-level languages targeting inets as their model of computation

afaik it's the passion project of one victor taelin, who felt that inets are both more beautiful and potentially more practical as compared to lambda calculus

the link routing algorithm is fantastic, every node editor needs to adopt it immediately imo. blender GNs would be so much less painful to read
