I mean, I’ve read that it’s pretty demonic. The guy who invented it would dig ditches in his yard because “that’s when the voices would talk to him” and tell him what the next step was.

bs. It can serve humanity or enslave it.

now it's obviously enslaving it because demons are in power.

It's like anything, but the sword is the go to analogy:

A sword can either conquer or defend. Enslave or liberate. Protect or slaughter.

Goodness comes from man, and man alone, but the wellspring is not entirely divine. Wickedness also seems to spring from the same fountain. One of the great quandaries of mankind.

Seymour Cray. Interesting fellow. Dug a bunch of tunnels under his home to get tips from the gnomes on how to build supercomputers. Apparently.

I mean, he really did dig a fuck ton of tunnels under his house. By himself. By hand. Dunno what to make of that, frankly.

> Seymour Cray dug tunnels primarily as a unique way to clear his mind and find creative solutions to complex computer design problems. He believed that physical activity, like digging, could free his mind and allow him to access subconscious insights, sometimes humorously attributing these insights to "elves" who visited while he was digging.

I mean, I have my best ideas in the shower...

The anecdote about an engineer digging a hole in his backyard to communicate with elves is most commonly associated with Seymour Cray, the renowned computer engineer and founder of Cray Research. Cray was known for his unconventional methods to stimulate creativity. He reportedly built a tunnel under his house and would engage in digging activities when faced with design challenges, humorously attributing his problem-solving insights to “elves” that assisted him during these sessions .
