gollark: I'm not sure what to do about the proliferation of random web APIs. On the one hand, exposing USB and graphics cards and stuff *may* be a bad idea. On the other hand, it is a nice application platform still.
gollark: It would also ship with a good document diffing engine built in, so you could write declarative code like people do now with React, but faster and without frameworks.
gollark: It could probably also do that. I don't know if it would interact nicely with the coroutine thing.
gollark: i.e. like writing synchronous code, but the coroutine yields while an asynchronous call happens
gollark: Oh, and the Lua scripting environment would use Lua's cool coroutine model to do async *pleasantly* without magic keywords all over the place.
