I often use now has between 1 to 3,000 unit processes in each chain so here we're looking at a laptop computer and we're just looking at some of the most important uh inputs in fact when you get this graph you get a little warning that says uh we're only looking at 13 of of the 1,000
Any of you? So I lost a very large number of quarters in "Pong" machines when I was in graduate school in Santa Cruz years ago. I couldn't resist. The first laptop computer was done by Grid Systems, a guy named John Ellenby.
this graph you get a little warning that says uh we're only looking at 13 of of the 1,000 500 and some uh unit processes in the supply chain for a laptop computer now we study that whole chain but we do it one of the the main outputs is to get what you could really call an
There was also another group of spies, called the "Wasp Network of Spies," that were arrested in 1998 and imprisoned for doing exactly the same thing. They were listening to this radio station every day. They were typing these groups of five numbers into their laptop computer and a program was decrypting it and getting their evil instructions from the evil Cuban government. So, if you know anything about cryptography, you'll know that it's common for codes to be expressed as, as strings of five digits.
visual processing pretty debilitating because a room is flickering on and off like a dis attack it used to just make her totally space out and there's some simple things you can do to help the person has these problems and one is an LCD laptop computer CU it's one of the few screens that doesn't flicker you can print things on colored paper sometimes helps and another thing that sometimes
But if we just think of it in the world, 483,840 billion thoughts every day. Now, how many of those thoughts would you imagine create the Eiffel Tower or the iPhone or the laptop computer or penicillin or the general theory of relativity?
So, think about what you have at home and how many devices or products that kind of depreciate at a Moore's Law type rate. And the number is probably higher than a lot of people think. So, it's not only that the laptop computer or something is more advanced than 20 years ago, you have more of them and more computational density and more devices.
we should block off all investigation by resorting to phony explanations involving magic, or the supernatural, Which don't explain anything at all. Just imagine how a medieval man, even the most educated man of his era, would have reacted if he'd seen a jet plane or laptop computer , a mobile telephone or sat-map device. He probably would have called them supernatural, miraculous, but we don't have to go back that
smarter than me call "performative agency". That's just a fancy way of saying, when I do something onstage, you can't tell what I'm doing, and how it affects whatever you're experiencing. And so, so the, the, the easiest way to do this is to compare for example the cellist and myself. That's me with a laptop computer . You know, when a cellist plays a note, you kind of know what's happening. Alright. You can kind of expect there's a, there's a physical motion with an acoustic effect, whereas me, I could, I could be checking my email. [audience
