Thanks for posting the original ideas that led to all this. "Runtime for prose" is the new "literate programming" - early days but a pointer to some pretty cool future things, I think.
It's already made a bunch of tasks that used to be time-consuming to automate much easier for me. I'm still learning where it does and doesn't work well. But it's early days.
You can tell something is a genuinely interesting new idea when someone posts about it on X and then:
1. There are multiple launches on HN based on the idea within a week, including this one.
2. It inspires a lot of discussion on X, here and elsewhere - including many polarized and negative takes.
Hats off for starting a (small but pretty interesting) movement.
