About Bacon

Bacon is an ad network for AI coding tools. Install the plugin, see occasional clearly-labeled ads in your terminal, and earn a share of the revenue your attention makes.

Bacon just lets a few of them earn, and you decide how few. It's found money for work you were doing anyway, not a paycheck.

About The Deterministic Core

The Deterministic Core: A Fixed Foundation for AI Collaboration, by Brandon Bell. The engineer patches a defect, runs an audit, receives a score. They are measuring distance, from each model's internal, implicit, and mutually inconsistent standard of completeness. The surface area of "not quite done" expands faster than it can be closed. The model cannot recognize completion, not because the build is incomplete, but because completion is not a state the model's architecture can represent.
