- eru 17y agoA guess it's always good to have a stash. In case you run out of them.
- CWuestefeld 17y agoI don't know what good an archive of zeroes is, unless he's also got an archive of ones to draw from as well.
- eru 17y agoPlease consult Feynman's Lectures on Computer Science and see the errors of your way. (Zeros are as good as ones and converting doesn't cost high-quality energy. It's deleting information. Thus going from an unknown state to a defined state cost high-quality energy, i.e. has to increase entropy elsewhere.)

- dalore 17y agoIt's always good to have some spare, in case you run out and have 0.
