I've had an unnamed content-addressable language in my private repos for awhile now. The language was an exploration of what it would look like if an entire language was transactional, and any failures (power loss, etc) could be mitigated by simply restarting execution at the last line of code executed. Content addressability helped solve the issue of ensuring state was consistent even in the presence of restarted I/O transactions.
