It'll be remembered a dark age when the lights go out and all the disks rot. And, if I know archaeologists, they'll call our data centers ritual centers or temples.
Otherwise there will be disbelief at the inexplicably sophisticated engineering, and how we could have achieved it all with no written records. Probably it was all just ancient aliens.
Our religion prevented using doc strings or code comments of any kind. What little software we had that actually worked correctly probably was aliens, come to think of it...
We rented our technology and could not read nor write.
