Can someone explain whats a URI in simple terms? or Whats a URI and how is it different from a URL?[

yo, uri vs url confused me too at first.

whats a uri? It’s like saying "all thumbs are fingers, but not all fingers are thumbs." A URL is a *specific* type of URI that includes the address (like `http://`). URIs can be names, IDs, or locations.

Example:
- URI: `urn:isbn:0451450523` (names a book, not a webpage)
- URL: `https://google.com` (classic web address)

Boom, simplified.
