Somewhere between “melting point of steel” and “core of the sun”. Granted this is a very wide window but your average disk temp is orders of magnitude higher.
According to this, that is about as hot as the temperatures that existed during the Hadron epoch, or the time period when the universe was between 20 microseconds and 1 second old.
In physical cosmology, the hadron epoch started 20 microseconds after the Big Bang.[1] The temperature of the universe had fallen sufficiently to allow the quarks from the preceding quark epoch to bind together into hadrons. Initially, the temperature was high enough to allow the formation of hadron/anti-hadron pairs, which kept matter and anti-matter in thermal equilibrium. Following the annihilation of matter and antimatter, a nano-asymmetry of matter remains to the present day. Most of the hadrons and anti-hadrons were eliminated in annihilation reactions, leaving a small residue of hadrons. Upon elimination of anti-hadrons, the Universe was dominated by photons, neutrinos and electron-positron pairs.
I don’t want to start making assertions without knowing the specific manufacturer and model of the drive involved, but given that hard drives generally rely upon the existence of electrons to function, which don’t exist at that temperature, one might want to keep an eye out for any other potential signs of trouble showing up, like slower access times or unusual noises.
Every attic I have been in that had mice had tunnels through the insulation where the mice were going through. Like actual tunnels, not gaps or disturbed insulation.
The joke is fine, but most of all it makes me appreciate how far xkcd has come since then. It’s been awesome for so long, sometimes you forget he ever was a beginner.
Write if(0){ on the back of your left hand and } on the back of your right. Use perspective - or whatever - to put the person between your hands.
This, of course, assumes a person is executable, but as circumstances not limited to but including the French Revolution proved, people are definitely executable.
Curiously, this trick makes the person not be executed, but it also means they can't execute you. Theoretically.
the problem here is technically not you knowing people but that the people you know can also know people that you don’t know, expanding the graph beyond the first layer that you personally observe.
