Funny how this is vision now. I started my career 29 years ago at a company that build exactly this, but based on oracle. The agents would run on Solaris, aix, vax vms, hpux, windows nt, iris, etc. Was also used to create an automated cicd pipeline to build all binaries on all these different systems.

Because people don’t know what they don’t know, and, learning from others (along with human knowledge sharing and transfer) doesn’t seem to be what society often prioritizes in general.

Not so much talking about the original post, I think it’s awesome what they are building, and clearly they have learned by observing other things.

Also basically has existed as an open source (pro version has web dashboard and complex task zoo) drop-in library (no sidecar dependencies outside of postgres) in Elixir for years called Oban.

Yep, it feels like half the show hn launches is for infrastructure tooling that already exist natively or as plug and play libraries for Elixir/Erlang.

I really try to suggest people skip Node and learn a proper backend language with a solid framework with a proven architecture.

Oban looks great, how would one run a python cuda based workload on it?

You could shell out to execute with porcelain, make the python a long-running process and use ports, or port your python code to NX.
