We Built the Internet in Minecraft

I remember almost having a heart attack when Branzy asked if we could do this. So pumped we did. That routing system at the end was hype!

"How much ram you got?" "4... " "4 gigabytes?" "No... 4 bytes..."

It was weirdly emotional when the computer passed the "hello world" test lol

Mumbo: It's quiet simple really

I don't think I've been called a redstone daddy before. Congrats.

Branzy and rek can build the internet, meanwhile I still struggle to make a working 2x2 redstone door

"Some encouraging words" - the words "the neardiest anvil I've ever seen" 4:01

2500: We built a computer in minecraft. 3000: We built an ai in minecraft.

honestly we need more branzy and rekrap collabs

i love that everyone is giving their go at redstone lol. IT'S FUN ONCE YOU GET IT!!!!

Really neat to see basic networking in minecraft! I'm a sysadmin that's spent way too much time learning about routing and switching, it's really neat to see it broken down into binary logic. Quick suggestion: It may be worth trying to add some basic error-checking into the messages. One easy (albeit imperfect) way is to implement a parity bit. You'd need another line, but you could probably send it over the routing line. You could set a rule such as "all traffic must have an even number of bits sent over-the-wire", and then enable the parity bit when transmitting bytes with odd numbers of characters. That way, if the recipient ever gets an odd number, they know to order a retransmission. Realistically, it may be easier to have some sort of kill signal that can be sent to the sender, and then a loopback in the RAM that doesn't get cleared unless the message was sent with no issues.

I'm studying to become an engineer. I LOVE how you guys troubleshooted a system FULL of errors and eventually was able to make it work. Think of the ENIAC computer. That computer was big enough to fit in your house... and then some. This creation is like the ENIAC... BUT... it changed the course of history. Branzy, you discovered the "first" internet bug! YOU DID A THING!!!! I'm so PROUD of you Branzy and Rekrap. You guys both learned a LOT about how the internet works. Now, since you're limited to 26 endpoints, try expanding that to over 1000 endpoints. (similar to going from IPv4 to IPv6). Good luck!

Ha! What a hilarious idea! Well pulled off! Although Branzy you really need to be more careful with leaking people's IPs like you did with Reks!

im a computer engineering student in college rn and watching this was crazy because ur basically building everything im learning about in minecraft, this truly is the coolest thing ever

18:25 Funnily enough, this is one of the few things in the video i DID understand, rather clearly I was a little surprised when Branzy didn't but I guess i've had my head in game programming nonsense long enough for that to stick So because i want to explain it, i'll do so The information that the ram is getting, due to some specific way the redstone repeater works Not only holds onto the information for longer than it's supposed to, it ends up holding the information long enough for the system to interpret it as double Like let's say for example, you were at a grocery store, scanning a box of cereal And for some delirious reason you choose to hold the box over the scanner for a prolonged period of time, and the scanner, not knowing what to do, thinks that you scanned two boxes of cereal I know that's not how scanners probably work (probably) irl but, that should give you a clear example of what went wrong here Hopefully that was enlightening!

Since you've integrated routing into your system, now you need to add more terminals, and eventually get the system up to the point where you can rick roll each other. Then you will have reached peak internet.

2055: We built a whole OS in Minecraft 2062: We built a whole linux distro in Minecraft

This is crazy! definitely needs more quasi connectivity tho...

One of the best videos i've seen this year making link between two of my teen time, Minecraft and Dev

This has been SO interesting. You're both geniuses. I love everything about this. The simplicity of the old technology transferred into something like MINECRAFT. It's mind-blowing.
