And more attributes

An e mail address is text, or dotted text: 'Joe the plumber'.gmail.com Every element inherits text, then they specialize to linear graphs with forwarding mail address containers. What about street addresses?
1234 MyStreet, CA USA

OK, right away, our computers use house numbers, they use them as locators on digital maps. State IDs are big, computers know what do do with those, direct localized ads.

So attributes have to mean, 'the computer has some special method', if attribute means anything. Attributes could mean, just another element in a random list, but that comes for free with any link value over the machine, nested orders and bound sets and all that. Attributes have to mean the former, some overload and special operation by the local machine, it is the only meaning we have left to parcel out.

Attibute is a named modifier of the predicate, say this machine generalized its concept of link, to include overloaders. So color$red, under th bold assumption that dollar means attribute, whith is this in gtriple format?

[Key][Link][Pointer] = [red][ATTR_ID | DOT][Free Pointer]

That is, ATTR_ID is constant, unquoted, maybe an OR of methods, but it otherwise points directly to some method, right there where it is spotted. In this case it tells Intel engineers to put red pixels on the screen. It could make Google maps shift the image, and so on. How does the industry define these? Things that make money, things computers do cheap that humans like. Like the INT$, that is a money maker in spread sheets; and you can sell scientists on your ability to FLOAT$, they love it.
