I started this last night. Despite how common the "technology is scary" / "big data has a big secret" premise has become, the mood and production were so top-notch--and not to mention the acting--that I'm all in, for sure.

I'm already halfway through!

Fun fact: in Episode 4, when Lyndon
Spoiler: show
applies the multiverse theory to the system and is able to get a crystal-clear sound wave
he mentions the "Everett model," which was one of the first quantum theories to posit that there are an infinite number of realities in which every possible thing that can happen has and will eventually happen. The guy who came up with this was Hugh Everett, and his son is Mart Everett, the front man of the band Eels.

The sound design of this show alone makes it worth 8 hours of my time.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Was talking about this with my dad today as he is watching this now. The end of lyndon's story had a lasting impact on me. I think about that scene often.

Have you listened to the Binge Mode pod about Devs? I really enjoyed it. Well, the first half of it, anyway. I still need to finish it. But it's great so far.

I haven't. I'll try to check it out, although I've never been a big podcast guy. I feel so unhip

This would have been better with 1-2 fewer episodes.
