Yes, I'm not looking real forward to the teenage detectives discovering that
they can probably get into the apartment building without buzzing in because
the old phone line based intercom system gave out awhile ago now, then it came
back about 3 weeks later, and now it's out again. I think that sort of "big
brother" way of having all the lines through the intercom is not commonly done
any more, and being that I have no analog landline, one could barely hear the
visitor when it rang anyways. They decided to just have the front door unlocked
instead, so you'd be stuck with the unwanted visitors at the apartment.

Wow, Scot, I probably only understand half of that, but it's crazy. Thanks

Absolutely startling developments at HP that may impact us all. It
dwarfs what Apple is doing in the cloud or even the idea of the cloud. It’s
also probably one of your m ore frightening advertising videos. It’s tied in
with Star Trek believe it or not but basically they’re using the idea of the
Singularity (AKA Ray Kurzweil and the Singularity).
The idea is that instead of processors and nodes in the cloud like we
have now there will be a massive pile of addressable memory. They have built
this system, memory is stored on fabric made of photons meaning memory is
stored on particles of light instead of electrons. This means a base increase
of performance over conventional circuits of 1000 times but it gets crazier
than that. Once data is stored in photons you can start applying principles of
quantum mechanics using ideas like entanglement to instantly transfer data over
any distance. Think of a radio wave taking 8 minutes to get from our Sun to
our planet in perfect conditions, now imagine modulating one out of two photons
in a pair and seeing it’s results over that same distance instantly because
information can exceed the speed of light.
Imagine HP releasing this to open source developers so unix instances
automatically boot with hooks in to this memory fabric, the internet of things
starts dumping data in to this system. By 2020 there will be over 30 billion
connected devices, that level of connectivity will crush the network as it
stands today but ideas like this allow us to progress past Moore’s law right
down to the photon level rather than primitive atoms.:)

I used to laugh at the idea of computing becoming self aware and
intelligent especially by 2029 on the near end or 2045 on the far end. IF
possible I used to think it would take hundreds of years especially considering
where we started. I’m not laughing any more. I’m wondering if 2029 isn’t to
far out? I’m not sure if I’m ready for my computing infrastructure to be alive
rather than a thing. Wait until the human machine interfaces become so good
that you hard wire your brain right to the network and we’ve got 9 billion
brains available for parallel processing. I’m in! For anyone who doubts it,
go outside, look at the billion people staring at their phones wandering around
the country side staring like zombies in their phones finding Pokemon. This
enhanced reality thing, it’s just the primitive start, the model A ford
equivalent of it’s time, it’s about to get really really interesting!
