You know, it was only 137 years ago that the first practical electric motor was
invented; 143 years ago that the first practical light bulb was invented.

180 years is a long time.


But if that seems too short, as I said, 3 bytes is sufficient for 45,934 years.
The invention of agriculture is only 12,000 years old. Although I guess as a
toxic bitcoin carnivore you care more about the invention of the bow and arrow,
70,000 years ago.
