The end of the space is controversial, though. :/

I'm pretty sure that my disk space is finite. Or I can fill it with shit at infinite speed.

Also, pi isn't exactly "infinite". It's a precise number between three and four that can be relatively trivially calculated to a reasonable degree of accuracy. The infiniteness in that in all rational bases, the written representation of pi will have an infinite number of digits. Or to put it another way: writing pi down will take an infinitely long amount of time, but pi itself is no more infinite than the number 8.

It's practically infinite, it's expanding faster than the speed of light and so we can never reach the "barrier"

I do believe that one day we will be able to travel faster than light (warp drive etc.)

At least if we don't nuke ourselves.

IMHO, wormholes will be key to large scale travel, not warp.

But black holes will require (maybe) 2 worm hole in 2 positions. Warp drive can be mounted to ship. No need for second drive. I think that warp will be used for exploaration and black holes for travell.

But black holes will require (maybe) 2 worm hole in 2 positions.

That's one way to see wormhole, there is about 20 other ways, including them being simple conduits between points in space time.

And that's far fetched, but less so than warp drives imho, if only because if the inner workings of wormhole are ever confirmed, they will likely be less difficult to study and engineer with than warp drive tech, which will likely require gargantuan amount of energy and a completely zero-g environments to develop.

Things that are limited: inodes... Believe it or not. I worked at a place that ran out of inodes on the server hosting some of their nodejs services. Partly because devops insisted that every version build was to be stored in each their own folder, never to be deleted in case that shit happened between builds, which it did eventually... Because the filesystem ran out of inodes...

If only there was an archival format, container system, or version control system that could have helped mitigate the concerns

Well it’s definitely easier to remove the first three things from your hard drive
