Guys,
I have acquired this board and have trouble assigning it to a particular
computer manufacturer and type:

Smells of (early) 1960s transistorized.
No helpful marking apart from
* "GATE JJ01" on SIDE A. (components).
* "C NT OL DATA" on side B (solder traces).
Big transistors are Motorola "180376008". Also, any ideas what the "246
636
B" boxes are, they have four legs?
Can any of you of mature years suggest anything?
Many thanks,
peter

Sorry, Peter, but when pasting your links into my browser, I get a white
square with a circle with a hyphen in the center. Nothing more.
Perhaps it's a permission issue?

I get the same, no matter how carefully I cut and paste either link.

Um. Gosh.
Yeah, you are going to need to use a URL shortener. Bit.ly is pretty
good as it lets you create your own memorable links.

Q: Is that link adequate to unambiguously identify any specific location
within any sub-atomic particle in the universe? (such as far more
detail than is required for the PHYSICAL LOCATION of the start of the file??)
OTOH, when will we have a compression for which that is adequate for the
content of the file?
Are there any browsers with a small enough buffer for the URL (and poor
enough input checking) for which pasting the above could be a buffer
overflow exploit?
Or, is the above link an offset within the digits of PI to a location that
matches the content of the file?
9:08 p.m.
Given that the encoding of the address is likely radix-64, and there are 717 characters
from the '.com/' to '?authuser=0', the resulting address 'space'
would be 10^1295... and the number of particles in the observable universe is estimated to
be 10^80 to 10^90, depending on whether photons are counted...
So the address given would need to be for a meta-universe of meta-universes... of
universes.
Which would make the server that needed such an address either multidimensional or
incomprehensibly big.
I suspect that response time on such a server would be challenging, given the constraint
of the speed of light.
In fact, attempting to load a web-page from the server would involved waiting until the
heat-death of the meta-universe of meta-universes... of universes.

Well, let's do some spitballing here.
There are estimated to be around 10^80 atoms in the known, observable
universe, which is about 34 8-bit bytes worth. So we could have a
unique number for each atom in the universe in only 34 bytes.
In that light, the URL *does* seem to be a bit excessive.

Ahhhhh... I suspect it's an example of modern web apps being excessive.
That URL was likely only active during the session that the user was active
within. When the session went away so did the URL.
It's longer than the information content of the universe to stop it from
being accessed by somebody else intentionally during a session by brute
force.
I love the modern internet. It's apollo obfuscated.

Well, let's do some spitballing here.
There are estimated to be around 10^80 atoms in the known, observable
universe, which is about 34 8-bit bytes worth. So we could have a
unique number for each atom in the universe in only 34 bytes.
In that light, the URL *does* seem to be a bit excessive.

It's simple. All we have to do is use Godelization.

As you may remember, I used to live in Brno -- the city where Kurt
G?del was born. Sadly they do not commemorate him. I think he's too
obscure. Gregor Mendel, yes; my doctor's office was on Mendelova
Namesti, Mendel Square. I went to the Mendel musem. Jana?ek gets a
theatre. All the others are only famous if you're Czech. But poor
G?del, one of the 20th century's greatest mathematicians -- nothing.
