Yeah. Any number of scenarios. Of course, in the ‘real’ world, these kind of interdependencies exist all the time. The difference is the speed and scale with which these glitches perpetuate. I mean, you had the same issues in the 1800s with a supply chain. But, a lumber mill in Canada that burns down would not have instantly caused houses to collapse in S. Carolina. Nowadays, the problems happen fast. And, with brilliant IT types, the problems get resolved fast. But, boy howdy, I get the feeling — just from reading the angst-ridden accounts from overworked stressed out techs types on HN — that we may be approaching a point where the ‘fixers’ are going to get overwhelmed by the bugs.
