Did we just invent a new CP Meme together with Sunshine and Elephant?

It certainly looks that way -- because we do things properly, here at CP; we're a no-babysit bunch.

It sounds like a load of Babysit to me!

I forget. I know what Elephant is. What is sunshine?

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Link?
Sounds like they are talking about "consuming bandwidth/transmitting data", not in the generation of "new information". In technical terms, all information is data, but nor all data is information. The fact that they have to stress the fact that they are talking about information as "data" hints towards transmission.

Apparently it was Eric Schmidt (of google) that said it at some conference. I'll try to find it when I'm in front of a computer.

Tx for the link; it's not about consuming data, but we do not generate that amount of data simply by adding tweets and FB-posts.
1024 HD movies on Youtube, with an hour of black behind it; the list of sites you visited; each email we reply to and include the complete conversation.
..that's not information, but data

Yeah, there are lots of people that don't understand the difference of information vs data.

I would like to suggest that it is not data wither but noise

At least it includes the huge amounts of data from the LHC, genome sequencing, telescopes, space probes, etc.

And how many percent promille ppm ppb would that be?

I think it's more accurate to say we'll RECORD more information.....

So does this mean we're getting closer to resolving the question of whether an infinite number of monkeys sitting at typewriters really can produce the works of Shakespeare? Only I've got a bet on!

Rats! This was posted, like, a day and a half ago and I'm just now reading it! That means I must have missed pretty much the whole thing! I always seem to arrive at the party when everyone is leaving.
(Ooh. I just realized there could be another explanation for that last statement than just bad timing...)

It is all right - he used to do it on every weekend lately...

Only trouble is I'm now marked as having updated nearly every post in the top several pages of QA...
Still, he's gone now - but I'm sure he will be back with a new name very soon... 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

What really troubles me - except ruining your weekend of course - is how he can do it so fast? I asked Chris about the API, but it still in read-only state...It seems he put a great effort to annoy you...
