And am I correct in intuiting that computing over the permutation would be NP-Complete?

The idea is that since technically all 32 bit opcodes, data representations, and encoding instructions(Unicode text, 24 bit color/audio) for computers come down to byte-sized combinations of bits (yes, there's nibbles and words and half-words too)--and these are necessarily limited to <2^32--, that any combination of bits used to represent an opcode or data are stored within the permutation, eliminating the need to store data beyond the 16GB partition.

Every bit pattern needed to move to another bit pattern is contained within the permutation.

This horrible Hello World bit bang I did on an 8bit CPU I made up is contained within the permutation, and could conceivably run against a virtualization of the CPU which would also be contained within the permutation if it were virtualized on a 32bit system.

The permutation, being a tape of 1s and 0s could then be acted upon by a multi-state machine to reproduce the actions necessary to play an audio file or execute a program without any additional data storage.

Has this been theorized before? Is it the sort of thing that is so obvious that it's taken for granted and not worth discussion? Is the NP-hardness of it so astronomical only the insane could and would conceive of such a folly?

Not the Turing Machine bit, obviously, but that all representations of data and program execution for any 32 bit system are necessarily contained within a permutation of the 32bit space?

Firecrawl Simple is a stripped down and stable version of firecrawl optimized for self-hosting and ease of contribution.

The upstream firecrawl repo contains the following blurb:

>This repository is in development, and we're still integrating custom modules into the mono repo. It's not fully ready for self-hosted deployment yet, but you can run it locally.

Firecrawl's API surface and general functionality were ideal for our Trieve sitesearch product, but we needed a version ready for self-hosting that was easy to contribute to and scale on Kubernetes. Therefore, we decided to fork and begin maintaining a stripped down, stable version.

Fire-engine, Firecrawl's solution for anti-bot pages, being closed source is the biggest deal breaker requiring us to maintain this fork. Further, our purposes not requiring the SaaS and AI dependencies also pushes our use-case far enough away from Firecrawl's current mission that it doesn't seem like merging into the upstream is viable at this time.
