The article describes vesicles as a sort of language, I always thought of them as a cellular routing mechanism.

Whatever they are, I think they're super interesting. I named one of my routing libraries after a related organelle: https://github.com/jdonaldson/golgi



Similar for me, but they seem like a literal (network) packet than a routing algorithm/system.


Yeah, in my analogy a vesicle is a special kind of ADT-wrapped result, and the Golgi instance does the routing.


Also fwiw I dropped the name vesicle from API and docs because I didn't think anybody would understand the connection. Now I'm inclined to add it back in.


Wait, what? Are... are you God?


I've watched the original Ghostbusters, so yes.
