We are excited to announce Spritely Goblins v0.10, available for both Guile and Racket alike! Goblins is Spritely's distributed object programming environment, providing an intuitive security model, automatic local transactions for synchronous programming, and asynchronous programming allowing collaboration over the network with the same level of ease as local asynchronous programming. Goblins takes the pain out of reasoning about distributed and secure peer-to-peer programming: with Goblins, that's the default mode of operation!

RadicalxChange(s) latest episode is an in-depth interview with our CTO, Christine Lemmer-Webber. There is a lot of conceptual territory covered in this discussion, with a focus on our work at Spritely Institute starting at 47:15, including a survey of various decentralized attempts at recreating big tech solutions, and how Spritely combines computer science research, object capability programming, and an explicit consent model to develop a new paradigm for decentralized and secure distributed social networks.
