A _pier_ is an Urbit virtual machine that hosts one or more Urbit identities,
or _ships_. When you run `bin/vere -c`, it automatically creates a 128-bit ship, or `submarine`. Your name (a hash of a randomly-generated public key) will look something like:

a good idea to learn these first so that you feel in, um,
control.
First, we'll quit out of an infinite loop with `^C`:
First off, Arvo has a simple task manager interface, allowing you see the
running commands, along with being able to spawn or kill programs.
~waclux-tomwyc/try=> :infinite
Hitting `^V` will bring you to this interface, and running `-prog`
will kill that program while `+prog` will spawn a new one.
If you ever end up with a broken program that is spouting errors
and wish to restart it, do it from this interface. Even our shell
and REPL `:dojo` is just another program in this list!
This is the base view from Arvo as well. If you kill all your running
programs, it will drop you into this interface.
Next, we'll show you how we can quit out of an infinite loop with `^C`:

####System administration
Sometimes we make changes to Hoon or Arvo (we never make changes
to Nock) and you need to update your ship.
There are two steps to updating. You need to get the new files,
and you need to install them. To get them:
Luckily, Arvo has some special sauce that allows the same carrier
you initially pulled your files from to push kernel update over-the-air.
You may notice this happening automatically from time to time through mysterious messages
such as:
