Like it, a lot. I think the future of software is going to be unimaginably dynamic. Maybe apps will not have statically defined feature sets, they will adjust themselves around what the user wants and the data it has access to. I’m not entirely sure what that looks like yet, but things like this are a step in that direction.

This made me stop and think for a moment as to what this would look like as well. I'm having trouble finding it, but I think there was a post by Joe Armstrong (of Erlang) that talked about globally (as in across system boundaries, not global as in global variable) addressable functions?

Not sure if I've read such an article, but it would be a reasonable next step from the globally addressable processes of the BEAM VM.

As I understand it Unison tries to do something like that but that might be wrong.
