I'm not so sure about this implementation but I do think this is an interesting idea.

a series of smol VMs/userspace programs that are each single purpose, independent of one another, and serve as opt-in and drop-in replacements for the features of any other shell operating system.

a parasitic set of programs forming what vaguely represents an OS that leverages the host to communicate with arbitrary metal and simplify the process of customization and maintenance.

rather than a one-size-fits-all VM capable of anything, a number of VMs with various hardware limitations and capabilities that target a specific problem space.

(hypothetically, needs further consideration:) an 8-bit VM for processing text, a 32-bit VM for processing images, and a 64-bit VM for scientific audio analysis. The computer the user assembles from these is only as complicated as their problem space.

@deianeira that's pretty much how I use computers today.

observations surrounding the fragility of computing have lead to far less senseless production of software and far more contemplation about the function of software, alternative implementations, and the troubles for which employment of software is the appropriate solution.

this is a wonderful thing and not something to frustrated or discouraged by.
