>how impractical it is the ideas like MyNOR dovetail nicely with the couple posts/discussions here recently about rebooting/bootstrapping the civilization. One can imagine several situations where we'd have to go back to basics - wars, catastrophes and/or colonies on other planets or even generational ship, etc. I mean in the situation without modern technology available, we know how to make simple crystal diode and with a bit of small effort transistor and that would let us build very simple computer along the lines of the MyNOR ... One can also imagine it in the other direction - how a traveler from the year 3000 would try to build a quantum-quark-multidimensional-time-accelerated MyNOR of the year 3000 using the year 2020 technology - i mean we probably already have some pieces allowing to build a crude version of it.
