I understand, so we'll have that at least. But if we have a chance to optimize that process, why just rely on books, I feel like that won't be the most efficient way of distributing knowledge if we had to. Even if we can get up to the 20th century, why not get up to whatever we were at rather than having to redo some work.
I'm just saying that if we rely on book literatures, we're missing out on the most efficient and powerful source of knowledge, the internet.
- tacostakohashi 5y ago> we're missing out on the most efficient and powerful source of knowledge, the internet. The premise if your question was that "we had no more access to the internet", so of course we're missing out on the internet as a simple matter of definition.

- watercooler_guy 5y agoIf within those books there is knowledge/instructions on semiconductor manufacture and computer networking, then we could rebuild the internet with relative ease and re-disseminate our books at that time. I vaguely recall someone or some group compiling instructions for 8-bit CPU chip manufacture in case of a worldwide catastrophe. Google isn't finding anything, but maybe someone else knows what I'm talking about?
