Is this a question?
We haven't even come close to exhausting 64-bit addresses yet. If you think the bit number makes things faster, it's technically the opposite.
For the people who don't know the answer? Yes.
Not everything you see is intended for your consumption. Let people enjoy learning things.
I totally agree. I know a teacher who who likes to say:
"I believe there really is no such thing as a dumb question. As long as it's an honest question (not rhetorical or sarcastic), then it's a genuine request for more information. So even if it's coming from a place of extreme ignorance, asking a question is an attempt to learn something, and the effort should be applauded."
Learned from the teacher. Thanks.
