An increasing number of computer programs also depend on an [[Internet]] connection and an arbitrary server often maintained by the corporate owner of the program. -Nature is full of dependencies but most of them are **soft dependencies**: animals can usually find nutrition from whatever other organisms are available instead of strictly depending on specific species. In high technology, however, we are mostly talking about **hard dependencies**: computers and cars need to be built from very specific components produced in very specific factories.
