  • The Internet Giveth and Taketh Away
    2024/11/21

    Some Nonsense listeners may be surprised to learn that humanity survived quite a while without the use, nor even the existence of, the Interwebs.

    Just kidding! The average Nonsense listener remembers their fingers getting pinched by rotary phones vividly, so the internet might as well be considered brand-spankin’ new!

    This episode the guys talk a bit about the evolution of the Internet - how it started, how they _thought_ it started, and how it’s going. You’re going to love it, we promise. You might even laugh. You’ll probably snicker. You shouldn't cry.

    No promises.

    (42:51) Jeff’s Recommendation: The Donut King


    Every technological advancement stands on the shoulders of the tech that came before it. Certainly, today’s AI would not exist if not for the boom in computing over the past half-century.

    Of course, before computing could exist, electricity needed standardized generation and ubiquitous delivery mechanisms. Surely the flowing of electrons must be one of the earliest technological marvels, taken for granted, that enabled today’s AI.

    But in this episode, the guys look at an even earlier technology that we rarely, if ever, give thought to - artificial light. Relatively speaking we have spent a very brief portion of our existence as a species utilizing light from non-solar sources. When we realized the sheer volume of technological development completed under the glow of artificial light, we knew we had to talk about it.

    But before we explore sesame oil lamps and delicious tallow candles, what would Nonsense be without some banned Chinese technology drama, and more Google fines (this time with extra zeros!)
