(at around 1h 13 mins) There is a reference to the Skynet computer operating at 60 "teraFLOPS per second", which is an inaccurate use of the term FLOPS (tera is correct, as it means trillion). A FLOP is an acronym for FlOating Point Operation and a FLOPS is a FlOating Point Operation per Second (note that FLOPS is singular, not plural). The FLOPS count is used to measure a computer's performance, particularly those in the scientific and academic fields. So to speak of "FLOPS per second" is redundant. One could argue that "FLOPS per second" refers to acceleration (such as miles per hour per hour) but members of the scientific computation field never speak of a computer's acceleration.
