"How does one call a noncommutative ring that is a differential bimodule over its (fixed) commutative subring (like the differential operators over the functions)? The term "differential algebra" means something entirely different, of course. Ad-nilpotent ring? Quasi-algebra?"

Fourteen years have passed. I started working at HSE and quit working at HSE, moved to Israel, then moved to Prague. Changed positions, grants, etc. I have lived through the idiotic Covid panic, I have seen several catastrophic wars being started in quick succession, etc.
But I have not forgotten about my quasi-algebras. I am typing a long treatise on quasi-algebras. Most of it is on the arXiv already. I have also written a separate paper on quasi-modules (a.k.a. differential bimodules).
And quasi-algebras are not even similar to contramodules, as far as my "career" is concerned. I have not invented quasi-algebras; I cannot conceivably become famous for studying them. Differential bimodules have been known since early 1990s if not before. Still I am being faithful to my ideas about quasi-algebras. I am developing them.
