I have been reading this write up about Forth: ratfactor.com/forth/the_programming_language_that_writes_itself.html

What a fascinating language that can still teach us so much.

Folks, I'm looking for help finding a project that I ran across a while back that's adjacent to some of the visual-programming stuff we like here. It was a node-and-wire style infrastructure deployment tool, I think specifically for AWS, that would take care of setting up IAM rules for communication between components with wires connecting them.

I feel like I might have run across it either here, or while looking up something about the now-gone node-and-wire web interface for Canonical Juju.

Also starting to feel like I might have dreamt it up though!
