                 in 2008, the beauty of Piql was its speed: other devices took 15-18 hours to encode a 20-minute clip; Piql could do the job in ~30 minutes.

While other storage devices required constant updating, Piql’s method was all hardware-based: if the box survived, so would its QR code.

                 As a society, we don’t have a very good track record with lofty, long-term storage projects. Take, for instance,

                 Entrepreneurs have been selling the promise of historical preservation to the public since the early 19th century. In 1876, a magazine publisher named Anna Diehm charged individuals to have a photo included in her 100-year capsule, alongside signatures from members of Congress and other artifacts.

                <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                 But when President Gerald Ford opened Diehm’s capsule in 1976, his disappointment was palpable. As the historian Nicholas Yablon later recounted, one of the president’s aides said, “Mrs. Diehm did not seem to have a very good concept of what would be important and interesting a hundred years later.”

                <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                 After the opening, Diehm’s photos went straight into an archive. When Yablon visited in 2010, he realized that he was the first person to request them since.
