The Internet allows creating the extremely big network based supercomputers.

Kimmo Huosionmaa I might publish similar texts in somewhere else, but if you want to read this, you are welcome. In modern computing, the most important thing is the innovation and one way is to get that innovation from nature. One thing that can make the revolution for computing would be the interface, what could connect millions of normal personal computers in one big computer, and then by one click to separate those systems back to separated and independently operating computers. This allows to use normal computers like the one single computer and create huge network-base supercomputer if the millions of computers would connect together. The idea is same with modular supercomputers, what are sometimes introduced in the media, but the scale of this system will be larger and the connections will be made farther than in the regular modular supercomputer, but in this case, the size of the system is not limited in one hall. In theory, every single computer on the Internet can be con

About the book "Hidden Figures" (Margot E. Shetterly)

Kimmo Huosionmaa In 1960's NASA hired black American female teachers to make calculations for the Moon program, and those women were in the key role to making the moon flight possible, we must realize that this book is not telling the stories about the women who made an extremely important job for NASA. It tells the story that there are more men and women who are played in the key role in many fascinating and awesome missions on Earth. Those women were in the key role in ending the racial separation, and the advancing equality between genders. In the modern day, every position of the persons should depend on the personal skills, without the influence of gender or the color of the skin.  The technical staff is not many times mentioned in the texts, what are told about space- and other programs. But when we are going to deep inside those missions, and the history of calculations, we are facing the thing, that in those times, there were no calculators, and the major ques
