    computer faster than the world has ever seen soon to exist



    its all sciencey so the right will likely hate what it produces
    This will make the purposefully flawed climate science models even faster ar producing bogus predictions. Great.

    Exascale computing refers to computing systems capable of at least one exaFLOPS, or a billion billion (i.e. a quintillion) calculations per second. Such capacity represents a thousandfold increase over the first petascale computer that came into operation in 2008.

    ADD:
    Peta (/ˈpɛtə/) is a decimal unit prefix in the metric system denoting multiplication by 1015 (1000000000000000). It was adopted as an SI prefix in the International System of Units in 1975, and has the symbol P. Peta is derived from the Greek πέντε, meaning "five".
    It is short for floating point operation.

    grow the fuck up

    its not all about you shit brick

    fucking sociopath
    Sorry but I just can't take you seriously!! It's patently self-evident that you've never attended a science class in your entire life. It took you ten years just to learn how to use the quote feature on here, that's how dim you are.

    Maybe now you'll understand how bloody irritating it is to have somebody derail your thread?
