Dunno. IMHO, it feels a lot more practical than Urbit.

I can basically understand what it is. So to me, it's very different.

Urbit is an underrated project! It was definitely an inspiration for the language I’m working on:

I probably want to talk to you about programming language ideas.

What are your thoughts on Unison[0], which also uses hash-addressed code and managed effects?

Unison seems cool! I met some Unison folks a few years back and our visions didn't have much overlap. Nice people, but their fundamental design decisions with hashes/effects/etc are incompatible with the web I'm trying to build.

I thought it was more https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIP-8

The Urbit nock machine is very different.

Last time someone said that on here, one of the responses was, "Uxn is to Urbit as science is to scientology."

It may not be quite true (Urbit isn't completely fake) but it's sure funny.

Interesting, I've never heard of Uxn before, I'll take a closer look, thank you.

something tells me they might not entirely appreciate that comparison haha

I'm not very familiar with either project, but they have similar names.
