But if memories are just physically encoded in the brain, I don't think this scenario makes sense even as a thought experiment.

When "I" wake up in the other person's body, I would have all their memories and none of my previous memories. So I wouldn't even know.

It might depend on how you define "person". When I look around, I see distinct human bodies. When I wake up, I'm in the same body as when I went to sleep, so in that sense I'm the same person.

Consciousness is not well defined. To me, this indicates that we don't really know what's going on.

The cultural reference in the names preserves the opinion that the choice of byte order is not worth fighting about. But this is an extra piece of information that's not needed.

Moreover, the choice of the word "end" is unfortunate, since it means both "boundary" (as in the 2 ends of an egg) and "conclusion" (as in the end of a transmission).

To make matters worse, they chose to have "little endian" refer to the case where the big (most significant) byte is at the end of a transmission.

Better names might be something like "smallest-first byte order".

Edit: If you are confused, think of it this way:

Little-endian = little end first

Big-endian = big end first

You need to both do good work and take responsibility to communicate this to your manager.

If you just do good work, but don't communicate it, your manager might not know and won't reward you properly.

If you don't do good work but only "perform", you lack integrity, you're not developing yourself, you're cheating your customers, and you are a drain on your employer and society.

It's not necessarily about "centralized" vs "decentralized".

Everything's going to be ok.

People hurt each other without intending or realizing it, because it's hidden behind this abstraction called "money".
