even computering is a abstraction that we have defined – just like the abstractions in the matric and in my life.
For instance Memory, its not holdable, its abstract, so is process and executing code and run time environment – networking, streams of data, space these are not real as in real, but they are real as in real when belived to be – they are abstractions my friend , they are creations apon creations -they are real.
Tell me have you seen the execution process, perhaps memory allocation and have you basked in the bandwidth of information, perhaps you have felt the bits running passed your hand, or the application squeezing up agains the netword protocol – no?
Well then you haven’t fully understood the abstractions that are present here.All of these things happen – streams flow with data, they sqush up against sides of pipes and they transfer miles and miles of application, in miniture quantities – but in reality this is not so – you cannot touch bits per seccond in a open data stream ope nto a file handle – but actually you can …its all in abstraction…
Abstraction baby.
So tell me im crazy and I’ll tell you – so are you.
