when it can write out pi in a pule we will know peeps. we will know.

Well, if it's been running for a long time, it's up to some random point in pi and we missed the start. But we can still try to interpret the signal as digits, and check if this sequence appears anywhere in pi... Well what do you know, it does!

(disclaimer: it has never been proven that π has this property, but it is suspected)
