gollark: I have it *open*, it's quite long.
gollark: I don't think, in many cases, you could just swap out a file for a TCP stream or datagram not-stream and expect all the code dealing with it in an application to work fine.
gollark: Applications have to handle them differently, and the kernel does too.
gollark: There's a significant difference between "send datagram" and "push to a stream" and, i don't know, "wait for an inbound TCP connection".
gollark: Still, though, I don't think having all this stuff as read/writeable "files" when the semantics are different is good.
