I am finishing up a 32 year old stretch project (as of this month). 99.9% sure I nailed it. Technically a 42 year old project, but it took me 10 years to find the right way to think about it and craft a formal definition.

The theory seems to check, but I can't/won't be convinced until the tools based on it are complete and working without friction or exception. Many times it has felt like I was tilting at windmills, but every challenge eventually caved.

An epic (for me) black triangle moment approaches! (Discovered that term here on HN.) An algorithmic triad the color of space without light is a poetic, but not misleading description.

Wish me luck!

I am curious about the project. Can you provide a clear description?

It is something I can build a business with, without being transparent about the technical advantage. So perhaps I shouldn't have commented here. But it is a milestone moment, a big milestone after a long haul, and the "What are you working on" subject on this particular month hit me in a celebratory way.

On the business side, things seem to be well lined up.

So my apologies for being indirect. Not trying to be "mysterious".

I just favorited your comment. So at any moment I feel I can be more straightforward I will reply to any comment you make in any other thread. That will be a good moment too.
