Bro, you nailed it. what is uri? It’s the parent, URLs and URNs are the kids.

URL = "Here’s where to get it" (e.g., `https://youtube.com`)
URN = "This is its name" (e.g., `urn:issn:1234-5678` for a magazine)

Why bother? Ever built an API? URIs are the backbone. Tools like Swagger (swagger.io) use ’em to define endpoints.

Also, SEO loves clean URIs. So yeah, kinda nerdy but low-key important.
