a rope is a binary tree where each node holds a string of manageable size and length and each node further up the tree holds the sum of the lengths of all the leaves in its left subtree. hope that helps
A simple rope built on the string of "Hello_my_name_is_Simon".

oliver (@eikopf.com): i'd just like to interject for a moment. what you're referring to as bluesky is in fact atproto/bluesky, or as i've taken to calling it, atproto plus bluesky. bluesky is not a social media platform unto itself, but rather another service built on top of atproto jack (@j4ck.xyz): the year of the self hosted pds

Erdős first did mathematics at the age of three, but for the last twenty-five years of his life, since the death of his mother, he put in nineteen-hour days, keeping himself fortified with 10 to 20 milligrams of Benzedrine or Ritalin, strong espresso, and caffeine tablets. “A mathematician,” Erdős was fond of saying “is a machine for turning coffee into theorems.” When friends urged him to slow down, he always had the same response: “There'll be plenty of time to rest in the grave.”

And finally, Professor Chomsky, what do you think of the chances of societies along these lines coming into being in the major industrial countries in the West in the next quarter of a century or so? I don't think I'm wise enough, or informed enough, to make predictions and I think predictions about such poorly-understood matters probably generally reflect personality more than judgement. But I think this much at least we can say: there are obvious tendencies in industrial capitalism towards concentration of power in narrow economic empires and in what is increasingly becoming a totalitarian state. These are tendencies that have been going on for a long time, and I don't see anything stopping them really. I think those tendencies will continue; they're part of the stagnation and decline of capitalist institutions. Now it seems to me that the development towards state totalitarianism and towards economic concentration—and of course they are linked—will continually lead to revulsion, to efforts of personal liberation and to organizational efforts at social liberation. And that'll take all sorts of forms. Throughout all Europe, in one form or another, there is a call for what is sometimes called worker participation or co-determination, or even sometimes worker control. Now most of these efforts are minimal. I think that they're misleading, in fact may even undermine efforts for the working class to liberate itself. But in part they're responsive to a strong intuition and understanding that coercion and oppression, whether by private economic power or by the State bureaucracy, is by no means a necessary feature of human life. And the more those concentrations of power and authority continue, the more we will see revulsion against them and efforts to organize and overthrow them. Sooner or later they'll succeed, I hope. — Noam Chomsky, interviewed by Peter Jay, July 25, 1976

or I guess what they say is that it “runs on” beam, which is... true :P
