Clay and glass are also partially made of silicon, right?

I’ve always found of fascinating that silicon was right there at the beginning of material science, and has stuck around since. Same for copper.

I don’t actually think the universe has intentions, but copper, silicon, and dogs do sometimes make me question that belief, it is just a little suspicious that our species would have such loyal friends.



It’s fun to watch the Anthropic principle develop organically in this sub-thread.


Watch the movie Alpha some time :)
