Are there actually any live projects to use technology like this to create many distributed copies of information to "survive the fall of civilisation" etc?
I know the Long Now foundation has the Rosetta project but that doesn't seem very live. It would seem straightforward to use technology like this to create 10,000 copies of something that could be widely distributed.
- photonerd 3y agoThey did. The long now used it about a decade ago.
- slyall 3y agoBut the Long Now project seems to be dormant. I'm looking for a live project that is doing this. Or maybe we could start one.
- 8organicbits 3y agoGiven the long term focus of the Long Now project, wouldn't it be expected to look dormant?
- photonerd 3y agoThat’s par for the course for the Long Now. It’s basically a bunch of rich folks circle jerking themselves as a hobby. Don’t get me wrong: love the goal. Practically tho it’s basically just nerd hobby projects
