Random fact #1: If a processor has a 1 GHz clock, then it takes 1 ns to
complete a single clock cycle.
Random fact #2: It is claimed that GLaDOS become self-aware within the
first picosecond of being switched on.
Random fact #3: There are 1,000 picoseconds in 1 nanosecond.
Question: What the HELL is the clock speed of GLaDOS?! o_O

Clearly, GLaDOS is using portal technology internally.
Alternately, who told them when GLaDOS became self-aware? Certainly it would
have to be GLaDOS, and we all know how trustworthy and honest *she* is.

That's easy: At least 1 THz.
Have any more difficult questions?

At 1 THz, 1 picosecond would only be a single clock cycle. You would
imagine that self-awareness would require billions of clock cycles.
Isn't there a fundamental "plank time" or something?

How do I get people to pay me to do fun things?

Not if it's highly parallel.

Find something you really enjoy, then suck all the fun out of it.
