> In the early days, John von Neumann has looked at the problem of constructing a reliable computer out of unreliable components but the study stopped as von Neumann died and transistors replaced the unreliable valves. We are now faced with this problem on a global scale and it is not a management problem but a scientific challenge.
Wow, John von Neumann is my man! I need to get more exposure to his intellectual legacy. I couldn't articulate why my POC of parallel computation surviving asynchronous loss of threads [0] would be of any interest (I don't see any practical value in it myself and treat it as a piece of art). I think the man would find more than two words to respond to it.
