Programming across servers, clients, CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs should not require heroic ingenuity. Brian Greenforest envisions a malleable platform where students, designers, product managers, and engineers can compose a serious distributed system in hours.
The revolution comes from a new way to compile, interpret, distribute, and run reactive code.
Turn Clever Infrastructure Into an Everyday Medium
A distributed package model can make reusable components available across physical machines. Harel statecharts can express control, and reactive relationships can carry changes through the program without forcing users to manage every thread and message.
The platform absorbs hard work into the compiler, runtime, and fabric so application builders can focus on behavior, experience, and value.
Create the Foundation for Larger Intelligence
A coherent, reconfigurable machine can support future AI systems and the local coordination that programmable matter requires. The immediate task is to make parallel computing composable, readable, and available to far more people.
Brian seeks builders who want to carry that platform from architecture into daily use. Join the programming-system work and help end the era when only a heroic hacker can make distributed hardware sing.

I am overwhelmed by complexity. Please, stop showing how clever you are, and making the world a more complex place. Kids, UX designers, PMs should be able to put a decent multi-server multi-client distributed program running over FPGAs, CPUs, GPUs in a matter of hours without ANY programmer's ingenuity. Put your cleverness aside. Along with Moore's Law, the Hackers' Era is coming to the end. And the reason is not AIs. The reason is a demand. A technological revolution. A totally different way to compile, interpret, distribute, and run your code. A totally different path does exist. It's like "distributed npm" but with reactive nature of your code. It's like Harel statecharts for all things control. A brave new world is coming, and it's going to shatter everything we expect from programming, computing, code...
The world we are going to create will provide a malleable foundation for yet-to-become AGI. Then we will find a way to build nano replicators for compute, and explosion of Singularity will happen. But before that, we have a very important work to do.
Only one person. I am looking only for one programmer who won't flake until this brave new world happens because of our hard work.

And we will make $billions in datacenter compute fabrics and IronMan program for wearable skin hardware. The world you know it with houses, office buildings, cars, bridges... is going to end.
