11:11 "in the case of the large superfiles - the 10 to the 11th bit weather file which we're putting on the ELIAC for example" That's 12.5 (SI-prefix) gigabytes. Very impressive for the time. Also I don't think I'm mishearing but what is the "ELIAC"? Google insists on correcting to ENIAC and overriding it brings up nothing.
And now we have a proliferation of porn, dank meme's and staged "pranks" 😁 Seriously though, interesting stuff. It's pretty cool and fortunate how everything was (mostly) standardized from the get-go. We could've easily ended up with a mish mash of different proprietary protocols by different companies and computing and the internet would've been a whole lot different. We have come a long way in a relatively short time.
This is just great! What a historical material. Thank you so much for sharing! 🙏
If this interests you, there's a book called "Where Wizards Stay Up Late: The Origins of the Internet" about BBN and the development of the IMP.
