This is the most accurate depiction yet
But "unpaid open source developers should be in, like, 3 more places
Should definitely be that big slab right under AI instead
and half the blocks above.
Let’s just say „every unmarked block, but one“?
Nah it should be a tall column of small ones stacked on top of each other, because if one project fails its enough to topple the whole thing.
That’s just Node based infra though. /s
The point is it's a fragile point of failure, but still very important.
Being a big slab loses that meaning
We should then replace that slab in the graphic with a thousand barely-balanced jenga-style little pegs
Except redundancy implies stability. The picture works best how it is.
You forgot a couple zeroes.
Basically, all the small blocks. They aren't all critical, but some of them are, and they're all over the place.
