NNTPs exact problem is that it works.<p>It&#x27;s like if you decided to start making CPUs out of silicon on a RISC architecture, that&#x27;s boring because it likely works and is a simple way of solving the problem of computation in a fast way. Essentially any idiot with sufficient engineering know how could do this.<p>However, rather than buy a CPU for a few dollars and get down to the business of computing you could start making logic gates out of balls, water, or something wholly unsuited for computation, and then try to build a CPU on top of that. At that point you&#x27;d have something very impressive that solved no problem people actually had before that point. And everyone who bought a CPU would look and think, why make all that fuss to do slower what we had been doing for years before?
