That's not at all the thing that I have the hardest time understanding, you're right - it's just the thing, along with CY's past, that makes me stop taking it seriously, although it is an interesting idea if it were implemented in a way that didn't attempt to be as arcane as humanly possible.
- jpt4 11y agoArcanity is relative to experience, so the ASCII phonemes can indeed be the most stymieing element of this experiment in futurity. However, what do you think of the phonetic numeral system? Compared to other protocols that map identity to a unique point sha256 space, "~hex" is no worse than "46", and "~fantyv-ralpen" is obviously better than whatever is its corresponding number; Urbit's vocalizable number to name mapping is possibly its most obviously correct (to me) and portable innovation.
