Just a small, but v v fast IPC lib that lets you make synchronous calls to a child process from node, while the child can execute callbacks from you before you return.
I optimized the everloving shit out of this thing, and it ended up being fast enough that the #TypeScript team will be able to use it for the thing that will let you use the Go typescript compiler from JS: you'll just be calling out directly to a Go child.
Literally hundreds of thousands of ops/s :)

"But in Monday’s court filing, attorneys for the government admitted that the Salvadoran man, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, was deported accidentally. “Although ICE was aware of his protection from removal to El Salvador, Abrego Garcia was removed to El Salvador because of an administrative error,” the government told the court. Trump lawyers said the court has no ability to bring him back now that Abrego Garcia is in Salvadoran custody."
"Trump administration attorneys told the court to dismiss the request on multiple grounds, including that Trump’s “primacy in foreign affairs” outweighs the interests of Abrego Garcia and his family."

In mere weeks, the Trumpists have managed to push America into that space somewhere between (no longer) democracy and full-scale autocracy. That means we must recalibrate our expectations. Let’s finally discard whatever notion of “It cannot happen here” is still floating around.

What does the U.S. look like in five or ten years?
I was asked to reflect on this question, alongside other scholars. In a stable democracy, the range of plausible outcomes should be narrow. But for America, it now includes complete democratic breakdown and full-blown authoritarian rule.
