sol_plunder

That sounds right! I'll keep that in mind.

"A lisp machine with fully automatic persistence. No database or filesystem needed" is actually a fairly accurate description.

There is a fair bit of overlap, but Plunder processes are persistent and Erlang processes are ephemeral.

Making processes persistent has nontrivial overhead, so the Erlang model probably doesn't translate well in practice to Plunder.

This document was written by Urbit devs, and for Urbit devs.

Plunder is not an obscurantist project, and intends to be straightforward and easy to understand.

Plunder dev here:

Here is a recent attempt to explain the paradigm succinctly: https://git.sr.ht/~plan/plunder/tree/master/item/doc/PLAN.md

Very open to feedback as to how to express these ideas more clearly.

The paradigm is quite difficult to describe well. Another attempt is here:

https://git.sr.ht/~plan/plunder/tree/master/item/doc/PLAN.md

Main Plunder dev here, wasn't expecting to see this here.

This document was written by an Urbit dev, and the Urbit community is the target audience.

The conversation here seems to be mostly shitting on Urbit with the usual HN critiques.

However, Plunder is only tangentially related to Urbit.

It's the same paradigm, but totally different otherwise. Heavy Haskell influence.

The project is still mostly underground, but I'm happy to answer any questions.
