I'm trying to figure out how many gears are actually in it, but it's pretty insane.
I just love the idea of recovering information and figuring out puzzles.
It's amazing that they can sync all those different sort of scales of time within one device with just a bunch of Gears.
Um, I mean, I, I think as we've been talking about there, like it's some kind of hybrid existence.
Like I can't, I think we are becoming more integrated with our technology.
I don't, I don't feel like existentially traumatized by that.
Um, and I also don't think like, you know, there's like all these tropes about like machines completely replacing biological life.
And I just don't think that's a realistic possibility either.
Um, and, and again, it goes back to like looking at the history of life on earth, like there's no technology that life invented, um,
that was completely replaced if subsequent architecture was built on it.
So I always think about the ribosome, which mediates the translation in a cell as one of the most important and oldest technologies on our planet.
We don't think about molecules as technologies, but life had to invent that thing, and it's still here.
