I loved Glasshouse, but for all the themes and ideas in it, that was one of the ones that’s stayed with me the most. Incompatible data formats across decades, or even across a few years, unreliable media, and the idea that we will end up with more information recorded before the rise of the computer age than in this transitional period.
I also look forward to the singularity being sometime around 2040, as there’s a chance that I just might make it that far!
