    Next Generation Shell (NGS)

    I would like to make my DevOps colleagues more productive and less frustrated. I'm actually already doing it, it's just way slower when you can't do it as a full time job.

    I started working on Next Generation Shell in 2013. I have the programming language in quite a good shape and we use it at work.

    I'm working on the UI now. The main idea of the UI is to get rid of telegraph-style communication paradigm of sending text and receiving text. We can actually use the whole screen now. We have text editing using full screen since 1976 (vi) but classical shells are ignoring this capability till this day. It's time to stop treating outputs of programs as if they are still printed on paper, allowing zero interactivity.

    Have a nice day!

  4. a2o

    The A2O core was a follow-on to A2I, written in Verilog, and supported a lower thread count than A2I, but higher performance per thread, using out-of-order execution (register renaming, reservation stations, completion buffer) and a store queue. It is now being updated for compliancy and integration into open projects. (by OpenPOWERFoundation)

  5. PureDarwin

    Darwin is the Open Source core of macOS, and PureDarwin is a community project to extend Darwin into a complete, usable operating system.

    or its corollary: making PureDarwin <https://github.com/PureDarwin/PureDarwin> actually boot to a FOSS operating system
