This is the inverse of the "$2000/mo tier", and I'm kind of disappointed TBH.


Ok we now have "law is code".

When can we have "code is law"? Write the code as source of truth and generate the law from it.


The law has better properties when it comes to undefined behavior than code does.


That's what a smart contract is meant to represent, and they get taken advantage of every single day.


When can we have real-time price auctions for public roads?


We already do. It’s called the value of your time. If there’s too much traffic, chose another route. We don’t need more tech shit trying to improve mobility when the solution is clear- fewer cars, more mass transit (and not hyperloop crap)


How do folks deal with Pi-hole unintentionally breaking normal websites? I used it for a couple of months until one day I spent 30 minutes trying to log in to a payment website with no success. Then I remembered I had Pi-hole running. I know the solution was probably to whitelist certain URLs, but at the time I just gave up and disabled Pi-hole.

Bad future predictions: short-sighted guesses based on current trends and vibe. Often depend on individuals or companies. Made by free-riders. Example: Twitter.

Good future predictions: insights into the fundamental principles that shape society, more law than speculation. Made by visionaries. Example: Vernor Vinge.


> But it simply doesn't matter bc we don't want their cars..

But is that cause or effect?


AI can be scaled so a company can increase productivity while cutting headcount. The limiting factor here is available compute and its price.
