Show HN: Threadprocs – executables sharing one address space (0-copy pointers)

🧠 "Threadprocs: Breaking Process Memory Boundaries"

Threadprocs enables multiple independent programs to share a single virtual address space, allowing pointers to remain valid across them without code changes, and facilitating the use of idiomatic pointer-based data structures like std::string or std::unordered_map between processes. This achieves a programming model between pthreads and multi-process shared memory IPC, potentially simplifying systems with shared memory. By relaxing traditional process memory boundaries, Threadprocs explores a new way to structure systems as independently launched components.
