Why Atom54?
We have a lot of exciting news. We have a new name and a new rebranded site: https://atom54.com.
We are now called Atom54, and here is why:
Atom is an independent (atomic) code unit.
Atomic programming is a paradigm that allows composing individual Atoms into compounds (and compounds of compounds) to perform tasks and fulfill goals.
Xenon is the name of the framework we use to run Atoms.
54 is the atomic number of Xenon.
Why Xenon? Xenon is a noble gas, it is chemically inert. In the same spirit, in the Xenon framework Atoms are not bound directly and cannot talk to each other. The Atoms are loosely connected, just like the gas molecules are loosely coupled.
Another remarkable quality of Xenon (the element) - it lights up when ionized with electrodes. Similarly, in our framework, the Xenon experiences come to life when they encounter incoming data.
And last but not least, Xenon (the element) is used for thrusters in spacecraft, which is just cool.
