It made me think about how we are fearing the potential of a Carrington event hitting us in the modern era, how bad it would be and how much it will take to build back.

It occurs to me that we could just have a ‘software calamity’ of similar scale, since we love putting so many eggs in so few baskets controlled by people that want to ditch all their expensive intelligent caretakers and slop things up into oblivion instead.
