How big is almost all of human knowledge?
About 122 Gigs. Yeah, thats it! Amazing isn’t it?. We finally managed to get the wikipedia static dumps for english uncompressed and it turns out, its no more than about 122 Gigs. Imagine that!. And since I am in line for more computing power than I could have possibly imagined to get my hands on (muahaaahaa..) I am itching to get wikipedia up on the operation table and go at it.
I will post some nice updates on wikipedia here though.
