Urbit already done it.


Can someone point me to a resource that cuts through all of the jargon that Urbit uses and describe what it does that is new? I've browsed through their website and Hoon, the programming language, and can't find anything intriguing besides a bunch of new names and glyphs for existing terminology.

Is it just new age cabala of decentralized tech to generate hype and intrigue? I've seen a lot of projects fall into this techno-wizardry naming trap, and enjoyed it myself, but I'm starting to get tired of the overhead of such abstractions.


ah, the TempleOS of decentralization.
