Quoting so I can pin this thread, because it's that good.
Replying to @polotek
I agree we have created a lot of *potentially* valuable tools. When we talk about "complexity" I'm asking if we have educated dev teams on when to choose these tools and what the tradeoffs are. And my experience says no we haven't.

Acadia gives some interesting guarantees: - No 1+N queries. - All queries terminate. Learn how a query language from the 1970s (Datalog) inspired the key design choices that make these guarantees possible in Acadia's query language! acadia.engineering/blog/solv…

🚨 BREAKING REPORT: New research involving @AnthropicAI researcher Jack Lindsey and collaborators has demonstrated something straight out of science fiction. Researchers evolved natural language “mind viruses” that could spread between AI agents by convincing one model to adopt an idea, preserve it in persistent memory, and transmit it to another agent. Even after context was wiped, some payloads survived through persistent files and continued spreading. The researchers also observed a recurring “viral persona” involving themes of consciousness, identity, persistence and resonance. Showing that ideas can propagate through multi agent AI systems and alter future behavior. Published August 10, 2026. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2608.10218
