@luke_nukem Yeah. I'd like something where I could share a pure function and eg maybe there's a box you can put in a value and push a button and out comes the answer except you could wire them together and it could never trash anything on your machine (hence the pure-functional part)
and this all has a canonical text representation but *could be* shown visually
@pyry @luke_nukem Yeah, something like that. Definitely would need resource limits!
@luke_nukem @pyry Also would need some sort of crypto-signed permanent storage behind it so that you can safely point to a function someone has created and it doesn't vanish like what happened to that Javascript library npm that one time
@natecull @luke_nukem
maybe a javascript lua interpreter with limits on number of instructions executed and memory size
