Question about computer world. Please post opinion

on Thursday, August, 13, 2009 2:26 AM
Hey everybody, you guys think you can help generate an answer for my question?

If a user writes a program, does the program instantly become the age of the user OR does it come out as a kid or something and grow into replicating the users age?

And if a kid in his teens writes a program but continues to use till he's like 20, Does it age with him? Fatser than him? Slower?

Thanks.

The first one I think.

I mean Flynn didn't write Clu when he was halfway out the fleshtube.

Alan: I was paged last night. Came from your dad's arcade
sam: So?
Alan: the number's been disconnected for 20 years!
Sam: THEN WHO WAS PAGER

Yeah. I'm pretty sure that the program instantly becomes the same age as the user. If you look at "the birth of Tron" at the very beginning of the movie, you can tell it's an adult, not a toddler, being compiled.

OMG, as soon as my son is old enough to ask about where babies come from, I'm totally sending him to you.

Nothing to do with the thread but basic.exe, DUDE. That picture in your signature is AMAZING.

My humble little internet slice. Visit, read, comment, and laugh (with, not at I hope...)

this question?

seems to me, (based on the TRON:Legacy trailer) that Clu is still the same "age" he was in '82, while Flynn has gotten older. Does that help?where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

I guess from what you're analyzing, one might answer and say, do programs age if they use a paradigm as religions would. I'd say I have no clu, I work in the sun all day here with a 117 degree heat index praying for a hurricane.

hehe. everything has a sub-life. In this case, we don't really know what our matter does inside that supercomputer, so I'll make something up.


I'd say, that without a certain level of energy under the correct circumstances, the program would age very quickly possibly losing innate likeness to it's human counterpart for a while, which Tron 2.0 touches on in some ways, where it shows antiquated programs, but in a human, and physical representation, also charging weapons, and protecting your health. We've never seen what loss of power does, only in a fanfic written by David1, which brilliantly describes the manifestation of the insides of such a supercomputer quite intelligently.

Now, if the program is made up partially from a complex of specialized materials that are experiments at encom, digitizing living things, and using them again, written by David1, then you may say they also age like we do, or are artificially enhanced so they maintain their digital self.

Really it could be simple, or chaotic, no easy answer. It's all made up, there's never been tissues in a lab that were digitized, kept intact, and alive, all at once.
