The story that describes the creation of this crowd art is almost better than the art itself.

Last weekend, a fascinating act in the history of humanity played out on Reddit.
For April Fool's Day, Reddit launched a little experiment. It gave its users, who are all anonymous, a blank canvas called Place.
The rules were simple. Each user could choose one pixel from 16 colors to place anywhere on the canvas. They could place as many pixels of as many colors as they wanted, but they had to wait a few minutes between placing each one.
Over the following 72 hours, what emerged was nothing short of miraculous. A collaborative artwork that shocked even its inventors.
From a single blank canvas, a couple simple rules and no plan, came this:

I hear the military values Destroyers very much. ;-)

Individuals can be trained to be destroyers, and valued.
A certain class of warship are destroyers, and valued.
The entire military could be considered destroyers, and valued, when it becomes necessary to use them, or when world leaders need to compensate for something. Or just never grew up.
Which you mean is unclear.

I think he actually meant that bolt-action carbines chambered for the 9x23 largi pistol cartridge are valued by the miltary.
Alas, he is confusing the 1950s Spanish police with the 2017 military.
