At its base, Tlon’s Urbit replaces the lambda calculus.
In the middle, Urbit is a new functional programming language. At the top, Urbit is a purely functional network operating system to make Urbit address spaces, properties.
Urbit creates a new layer over the internet like the Internet layers over PSTNs, which, Urbit posits, earns adoption with its own internet services.
Thus, Urbit variously describes itself as:
- Operating function
- P2P networks of personal servers
- Virtual city of general-purpose personal servers
- Clean~slate global computing platform
- Redesign of programming
- Protocol, language, OS
- Dgital identity
- Open source, patent free
- Self-funded digital republic
Is Urbit, not only Urbit creator Curtis Guy Yarvin’s vehicle to redecentralize the internet, but also, the template for an alt-right re-engineering of society itself?
