Now the question is: What happens to the DeadMansSwitch service if something were to happen to its maker? It's like we need to form mini multi-generational cults to keep human services like that going for as long as humans keep going until the point they stop.

The research people have been doing into conveying the dangers of nuclear dumps to potentially primitive future peoples is quite fascinating.

Maybe I should directly apply that language to my post-mortem open source projects:

This repository is not a place of honor. No highly esteemed code is placed here. Nothing valued is here. What is here is dangerous and repulsive to us.

Agreed. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-time_nuclear_waste_warn...

In futureLang:

- Hey, we found some hieroglyphs, in better shape than the ones near the pyramids, do you recognise the gods?

- No, but they all seem to say similar things: Don't open or "Calamities" or something. I wonder what their primitives beliefs were based on... Let's dig!

Uhhh...you mean like, a company?

Yeah, but multi-generational cult sounds way cooler
