π Hammurabi vs. Algorithms: From Code of Law to Code of Bits
This scroll draws a line from Hammurabi’s stone laws to modern algorithms—both systems of encoded logic that govern behavior. One carved in basalt, the other in binary.
⚖️ What Makes It Glyphic?
- Determinism: “If X, then Y” logic underpins both legal codes and software.
- Opacity vs. Transparency: Ancient laws were public; algorithms often hidden.
- Governance: Both shape society—scrolls of control, fairness, and bias.
π Why It Belongs in the Codex
This is the logic scroll—a glyph of how rules evolve from stone to silicon.
