Great points. Here's a sneak peak at Ohayo, which helped me quickly whip up Fib:

No. Because with all existing languages, to have machines and humans coauthor code has proved impossible. We needed TN and ETNs to enable this: one right way to write programs. With ETNs, humans can write code that machines can easily work with, and vice versa.

I have no idea what I'm looking at. This could be a code editor, a debugger, a plain code listing. No. Idea.

It's taken from Ohayo, the ETN editor. It's a rendered view of the Fire program. Sorry, I'm responding to some really helpful feedback and comments now, but will get back to Ohayo shortly and get it out today.

I should note: the UX of Ohayo won't be great in the first week or two. Although I've been building this for quite a while, it wasn't until this morning that the last pieces of the puzzle finally clicked into place.

That being said, using it for a few minutes is more than enough to get where this is going.
