This seems a little, messy? is the readme aimed at humans? because its a bit scatter gun. Is it a model orchestrator? or a wrapper around docker/nix/cgroups+chroot? Like what makes it an OS? You rightly point out that shared memory across wifi/crappy ethernet is a bad idea, but then how do you get around that?

He asked codex to build this. He does not even know what it means when people say the term OS

Can you estimate how much it'd cost to make? Having ^F'ed "Load-bearing" I determined it must have been Claude

You will get MUCH more uptake and discussion if _you_ write that main github readme page. Many, and I’m becoming one too, won’t bother reading if you couldn’t be bothered to write.

Went through the Readme, the direction you point out is exciting but i still wonder what it communicates? would love to know your personal opinion what you try to accomplish here?

I appreciate the attempt to hide the AI slop style of the documentation, but it still very difficult to read and understand.
