Tomorrow I will present:

**OT and CRDT combine in Collapsing Time Travel**
Michael Toomim

We usually talk about OT and CRDT as competing algorithms for collaborative editing, where each has has a fundamental weakness: centralization with OT, and history growth with CRDT. However, today I'll show that OT and CRDT are actually two complementary abilities of a general class of algorithm that we call Collapsing Time Travel. This class of algorithms guarantee P2P consistency over modular history, enabling algorithms such as:

Antimatter: the world's first text CRDT that prunes history

Diamond-Types: the world's fastest text CRDT (at publication)

and Simpleton: a light client for any CRDT with zero history overhead in 45 lines of code

The agenda still has 45 minutes of time available. Do you have anything to demo or discuss? Add it to:

Hello Mike & The Braid!

I'm looking forward to hearing this, I think it's a more evolved version of your 2023 dweb camp presentation?

I have some ideas on conflict resolution (not the same context because they apply to non-monotonous problems, but they are also based on registering observations).

If there's time we can discuss the similarities/ differences.

Cheers,

Santi

Hey all—

I have to cancel my presentation today. I wasn't able to polish off some key parts in time. I am tabling it for another meeting.

This will give us more time to discuss Santiago's ideas on Conflict Resolution, and see what similarities or differences it has with the rest of our work.
