RE: For The First Time In History, Digital Audio Recordings Have Been Archived In DNA
I don't see the point of this if it cant reproduce itself.

You see no point in long-term data storage?
I saw a documentarie few days back called transhumanism, it also spoke of this topic and that they could potential store an huge amount of data on DNA.
Very cool and at the same time a bit scarry how far they have come with technologie.
Have a nice day!!
This can revolutionize how we deal with data.
The trick is to keep the least amount of data while improving on previous versions. A bit like instincts.
Least amount? That does not make sense, what we need is the max amount of storage on the smallest possible scale.
Human data production is growing verry fast.
We produce more data in 2 days then we did the rest of human history.
Maybe I worded that comment badly. If you just store everything without using it, no one will bother to look at it. It has to become law, process or instinct to be useful.
"Data" production is not just humans storing their video's and songs.
Data in this century is everthing and anyone.
And no one needs to look at the "data" for it to become usefull.
Nobody is watching the blockchain like a movie, no one is listening to the blockchain as music.
Yet it is data.
And we do use it.
But i know what you mean, for personal use limitless amounts of storage is not needed.
But we could sure use some extra haha!!
I still think it doesn't matter how much data is produced, every system has ways of sorting through it. This website for example is a blockchain explorer which uses social media techniques to remove quantitative data, so we only see what's relevant.
Many storage mediums hit their limit. And when there is no place for further improvement, people just try something different. Last year a HD vinyl technology was made, improving 30% more fidelity in the sound, but that's it. It's just an old technology. And frankly, almost no one has ever heard of HD vinyl.
