Spectral sequences as deformation theory

I believe that running the spectral sequence of a filtered complex / spectrum $ \cdots \to F_n \to F_{n+1} \to \cdots$ can be viewed as doing deformation theory in some very primitive "derived ...

What is the relationship between Artin and Lurie representability?

Artin's representability theorem gives conditions for a functor from commutative rings to sets (or groupoids) to be representable by an algebraic space (stack). The conditions are largely expressed ...
