I agree with decoupling. The question is: How?
Funny you should mention visiting the stars since Urbit's founder was thinking about Mars.
His thesis is that we need to throw the whole thing out and start over, then graft the alien technology on top of our existing stack.

>three-way decoupling
The trouble is that it seems that nearly every internet corp sees "decoupling" as an existential threat.
What I wrote about the three-way decoupling is a result of some time I spent thinking "the Star Trek way" - i.e. how would the cloud ecosystem look like if it was made primarily to be useful, as opposed to sucking money out of people.
