The inter-network of the human race and the delay

In computer games there is a slight delay between the pressing of the button and action on the screen. There is still even a delay on the human body, when the brain tells the fingers to type or the eyes read, and there is a slight delay. This delay we know about but what if there was another delay? Charles Darwin said that all life on this world is related. We are all related to one another and yet each so unique. An earlier post of my related to wireless minds in that we are all controlled wirelessly, and this post will build on that.

Consider the internet as lots of computer inter-networked together to form the internet. Each computer has its own IP address and each IP address can be sub networked to allow more than one computer to work on the same network. Much like how a most homes have two computers and both can be online at the same time. They are likely to use a router and both have the same IP address. People can upgrade their computers and change components allow friends on their network etc. Now consider that the human race is the same. The human race is a group of computers inter-networked together. If a person has a child then that child is added to the network. If someone dies they leave the network. Each computer has memory to allow it to remember its relations to past events, and use it to help calculate how to handle current tasks. Much like how a human brain works.

So what has delay in computer games and computer networking got to do with anything? What if there this delay could be come larger or shorter? In networking it is called latency which is the delay between devices on a network. There is very little delay between devices on a computer which is limited by the speed of the motherboard bus speed. The brain calculates tasks much faster than any computers today, but still has to process these tasks. This processing means there is a delay. If going back to my previous post about wireless minds as well as how Darwin said we all related. If the human race is some how linked together, then there surely would be a delay.

Let us consider that all humans are inter-networked what could possibly be gained? The Internet allows entertainment, education, news and business possibilities. What are the gains of all humans linked together? The answer is maybe not as clear because we are only thinking of humans being linked together. What if every life form on the planet was linked together? We can commutate by sound and visions so why not by some other link? For computers to talk to one another a protocol is required for humans to commutate with one another and other life forms a protocol may be required.

I have a typing speed of only 70 words pre minute which is much slower than people who use computers less than I do. It was this that helped me come up with this theory. I thought what if everything we do is being delayed and the ones with the fast connections can do things faster than the ones without. Think of the possibilities if we could learn a protocol talk commutate without talking to not only humans!
