But it's not even unlikely that half a century
from now our clean and
neat binary logic hardware will be as robust and orthogonal-seeming
as electron tube logic does today. In fact, I think this is just as
or more likely than the former scenario.
And any decent electronics hacker can interface electron-tube logic to
modern-day logic with fairly minimal effort. I expect the analogous
statement to be true 50 years from now.
