| fatslob-:O said: So ? Even if we are hitting closer to the limit of Moore's Law, we can still make more specialized hardware to increase performance and if there's bug in the silicon then let the hardware guys do a respin of the silicon as well. I don't see the big deal and neither do the rest of the digital industry as well. If nearly everyone are taking for granted superior hardware then let them since thousands of engineers are obviously getting paid to do this ... If 'maintenance' ever becomes the ultimate problem like Jonathon is implying then just open source both the software and the hardware designs and let the community just take care of it from then on to see if they can do a better job ... Software is definitely important but I doubt civilization will collapse as we're in the golden age of information where archiving and documentation has more value than ever before so many industries are taking more steps to value data ... |
Mainly to try and sell you pointless shit. Is that progress? Thank the heavens for ad block. I don't know how the average user surfs the web without one.
