gollark: Nope. We have all data.
gollark: If you really must you can simulate it forward I guess.
gollark: If living programmers remain, they will be neurally scanned and their memories used to reassemble site code. Alternatively, the contents of their neural scan can be backfilled from public (or nonpublic) data.
gollark: In this case it may become necessary to simulate the universe backward such that you attain a time when the site existed.
