Make Tmux the OS

The author argues that desktop operating systems haven't meaningfully innovated in decades despite hardware capabilities changing significantly, and proposes that modern OS design should adopt tmux-like features—such as persistent sessions, detachable workspaces, and task-oriented task management—but make them accessible to average users. Key problems identified include poor handling of dynamic screen real estate changes (laptop to monitor transitions) and the OS's failure to recognize that users employ multiple monitors for different purposes (focal vs. peripheral work).
