During the 19th and 20th centuries there really is no question that war
drove the development of technology and technology made war more
horrible than it ever was before.
Historically three things stand out as drivers for technological
development, the need to produce food, the need for business data
processing, and war. Remember that numbers and writing were invented for
business data processing.
Enough, is enough...
Unless we can bend this back toward game programming it is time to stop
this thread.
I have to say, this has been a very civil discussion. Thanks to everyone
for keeping it that way.
