Does anybody know what is the state of unums? That thing pop up on HN every now and then, but I still can't see it in practice. It is definitely something promising. Is there any development going on to employ this theory in practice?
Its a shame, as many superior innovations basically remain sidelined, but the pre-existing infrastructure is in production and you never change a running system. You would need a easy integrate able hardware option, that allows a simple auto-conversion of a preexisting codebase and which would then run in parallel for quite a while, to even just be considered :(
