Goals as simple as possible without sacrificing our other goals (less complex than http) performs well under poor network conditions, even when payloads are large (unlike gemini) performs well under high latency (unlike 9p) go...

Unification is formal methods speak for solving equations. The most common form of unification discussed is first order syntactic unification. When it succeeds, it solves a pile of equations no matter what the actual functions represent. [exists ?X ?Y] foo(bar(?X)) = foo(?Y) has a solution [forall ?Y ?X] ?Y = bar(?X...
