I've designed a lot of RPC protocols in my career. One pattern that's worked well basically goes as follows:

// Client calls: print('Hello World\n')
-> [1, "print", "Hello World!\n"]
// Server sends return value (or lack of return vvalue)
<- [-1]

// Client calls: add(1, 2)
-> [2, "add", 1, 2]

Hi everyone, I'm Chris Wanstrath.

When Jeremy asked me to come talk, I said yes.  Hell yes.  Immediately.  But
then I took a few moments and thought, Wait, why?  Why me?  What am I supposed
to say that's interesting?  Something about Ruby, perhaps.  Maybe the
future of it.  The future of something, at least.  That sounds
keynote-y.
