[extropy-chat] converging history

[Spike]

I sent the figure as an enclosure to the list, but it
hasta go thru a moderator before it can be posted.  The
figure was the Intel roadmap for future processors.

file? Harvey

Please Harvey do not hack into my computer.  I have no
doubt that you could do it.  {8^D  Perhaps someone
else here knows of a way to get to the site, or an
equivalent roadmap of microprocessors coming in the next
five years.  I was astounded that there is no apparent
slowing to the logarithmic progress in processors that
we have enjoyed for the past 25 years.

No one has commented on the rest of that post: that
humanity has clearly gone open loop and that surely
the singularity is the inevitable result, with no
logical new equilibrium immediately threatening us.  

For most of history, people suffered thru lives just like
their grandparents and their grandchildren.  How similar 
is your life to your that of your grandparents?  How similar 
to yours do you expect your grandchildrens' lives to be?
