Well isn't OpenCog having a busy weekend :) As a lurker I have already expressed my dissatisfaction at "advanced C++" which is the trend in the project, and would probably carry over my disapproval of "idiomatic C#". There is absolutely no reason for the coding to be more difficult to comprehend that OpenCog's design itself. If anything, the code should make plain and simple what the bloody design is trying to do! Now, my particular wet dream would be to see people pulling together their own "free resources", like the free tiers at AWS, Google Cloud etc, to create a hive-mind. If somebody was brilliant enough to throw away big chunks of the code and instead achieve (some of) the same results with a DB of sorts, AWS lambda etc, that would be quite something. Then, for the parts that don't fit the "cloud" box, if someone could come up with the "CloudCog", some probabilistic graph, inference engine or whatever is missing from the garden variety PAAS and SAAS, then we could really be heading somewhere. I don't know much about the project beyond the demos, but I do believe the project is being hurt by the general unavailability of a constantly running instance that "does something", whatever that maybe, and somehow can be accessed by the public, eg through an API. Presumably this new hedge fund thing may be the closest OpenCog has come to being a 24/7 system, and Ben will probably tells us if he finds out a better way to do things with and without this codebase
