I remember a few weeks back, you said that you wanted to take a closer look at the Urbit project (www.urbit.org). Just wondering if you had gotten the chance to do so, and, if so, what your thoughts were.


Do you have a link to where he mentioned Urbit?

I find the whole project (politics aside, though i wish this caveat was unnecessary) stunningly beautiful, especially the focus on verbalization (#spokenDSL), and having Alan Kay be interested in it is flattering even though I have no relation whatsoever :)



Have you seen augur.net; i think it's pretty cool and definitely not practical using BTC.


Would just like to point out that a) he's not autistic and b) he did not learn mandarin in a few months; have heard he's been practicing for years.


Planets can also issue moons. I believe somewhere down the line when the number of planets becomes an issue (a good problem to have, it must be said), it would be technically possible for moons to be given similar functionality to a planet. One could imagine a future in which a household, or even a group of close friends who share a planet that issues each of them a moon to hold their primary identity.
