Didn't intel make same thing few years ago?
In 10k years, there either won’t be anyone left to read them, or the technology at the time won’t be able to read them.
What are you going to read it with? Unless it’s photographically reduced text, like microfiche, it’s unlikely that the computer hardware and software will still exist.
Nobody uses a 6502 with commodore basic anymore either, I can still pop on an emulator in about 10 seconds to run a game from that era.
Have some information there to build a reader, we can read hieroglyphics and cuneiform and that's older, more primitive and only written in a few places by a few people.
