new jynpost jyn.dev/the-terminal...

Re: jyn.dev/the-terminal... I would love to chat about the stuff I'm doing with postcard-rpc/ergot but also poststation: I'm building a typed, autodiscoverable, lightweight socket library that I'm using as a network transport library but also I want to make it my hobby os' syscall/ipc interface

But hell yeah: it is possible to do VERY efficient, typed, comms languages, and building in autodiscovery is like having mdns+openapi, which you can use to make very very neat cli + gui tools. I really want to make things like old smalltalk system browser for network services.

"structured messages with built-in reflection" is the dream, yeah. i want something like powershell Get-Member for every process in my shell, every feature of my terminal emulator, every part of the line editor!
