While you’re right, it’s also funny to say that god was a software developer under deadline pressure

I’d you’re talking about cloud computing for gaming specifically (as you can of course use cloud computing for, well, everything), then maybe it’s not good enough in the US, I don’t know enough about that area to say, but networking is definitively more than sufficient in Europe.

That’s a diagram from the same article, actually

To be fair, I might be thinking of something else than you

I mean, sure, but I’m also not gonna be spending 5 minutes composing a mega-message, and I don’t expect the other person to do so either

This was done by an archival group, primarily for the purposes of preservation. Don’t know if it helps make you feel better, but at least personally I think complete archives of human cultural output, if possible, are important. So much has already been lost over the course of history

That’s a different style of communicating. Think of it as something closer to a conversation, where you generally don’t take long pauses

Yeah, users might get a bit upset about “abrasive devs” but like, as you said, it’s devs that give their free time and energy into developing the project. Users honestly ought to respect that a lot more

The big bang part is interesting, because, if humans become successful and manage to somehow make some sort of long-lasting archive that would survive on universal scales, we would be the ancients with old revelations to a potential future species. Able to impart knowledge that would have been undetectable for them, and an ancient map of the stars containing visions of countless other galaxies, and a peek into the very beginnings

Though, realistically, it’s likely that a hypothetical hyper-advanced technological species would have their ways of prodding the true nature of our universe, despite the greater challenges

I know you meant “companies”, but at this point, it might as well be on the scale of a country

Quick question, are you disabled yourself?

We have discovered over 6000 exoplanets in total, and over 100 in this year. I’d be surprised if you knew of all of them

I mean, arithmetic order is just convention, not a mathematical truth. But that convention works in the way we know, yes, because that’s what’s… well… convention
