Seems kinda silly to name such a huge project after a meme that will be stale in a few years, but then, this was likely all generated by AI, so it doesn't matter.

EDIT: Expanding on this a bit, because I want this comment to be more productive and less old-man-yells-at-cloud.

When I saw the link I got curious. It reminds me of the old skdb[0] project and of Open Source Ecology[1]. The idea is cool: a DAG of civilization from David Gingery[2] basic tools to jet planes and turbofans and rocket engines! Imagine that!

If it was real, it would be world-changing. The creator would be a personal hero of mine. But it's not real. It's a vague suggestion of the real thing.

Who is the creator? No-one knows. These vibeslop websites never have an About page, or contact info. No-one is putting their reputation on the line, regarding the quality or accuracy of the content.
