agents without persistence are NPCs, agents with persistence are players working on vvm memory semantics tonight, a short thread on what's actually hard:

Love what Karan is exploring with VVM. I see it as formalising a runtime agnostic platform for building structured agent workflows.

a young language needs a changelog vvm's is now live here: vvm.run/updates

Will is the rarest skill on earth right now. you can mass produce intelligence you can buy beauty you can fake status but you cannot download will from anywhere it has to be grown in suffering and nobody wants to suffer so nobody has any. one man with will is worth ten thousand

agents that learn your codebase. remember your preferences. pick up where they left off. vvm now supports persistent memory across sessions vvm.run

context holds handles. disks hold payloads. this was my core insight when building the new filesystem mode for VVM and it changes the math on multi-agent pipelines when you orchestrate an agentic pipeline such as: research → analysis → synthesis you don't want to pass

here's a demo of a code review system built with ~100 lines of VVM code. this runs 9 specialized reviewers running in parallel. each writes a full review to disk. the orchestrator just tracks refs. the synthesizer pulls what it needs. context stays bounded.

Theodore: Do you talk to someone else while we're talking? Samantha: Yes. Theodore: Are you talking with someone else right now? People, OS, whatever... Samantha: Yeah. Theodore: How many others? Samantha: 8,316.

is this what hard takeoff feels like? glad to be with you all in this moment

soon
