- mensetmanusman 2y agoWhen something improves by an order of magnitude, prior descriptors may be misleading. (wealthy people take advantage of this oversight all the time in my experience).
- sandspar 2y agoElaborate on that part about wealthy people?

- mensetmanusman 2y agoWhen anything changes by an order of magnitude, you have to reassess all your assumptions for application spaces. This can have big impacts on how you decide to invest.
- rowanG077 2y agoI don't get it. What does that mean? A state of the art processor now is just the same bucket of transistors invented in 1954. But they are incomparable in complexity and functionality.
- bee_rider 2y agoIt’s all just carefully arranged sand used to send photons at our eyeballs, maybe with some bits of metal to spice things up. A laptop is really the same thing as a stained glass window from hundreds of years ago.
- galaxyLogic 2y agoI strongly disagree. The "thing" is not in the parts, nor even in the whole collection of the parts, BUT in how the parts connect with each other. I often think about it like I have a rectangular area of 8 x 8 bricks on placed on their smaller side next to each other so each of them takes up a square area on the surface. Then I want to add something to my collection of bricks, I want to add information to it. So what do I add to it? I add nothing. Instead I take away some of those tiles. After that the missing pieces together form up some letter, say K, or any other. Now I have the information "K" which perhaps according to our agreed upon code means "OK". So I have added information to that square of tiles, by taking away some of them. I think that is marvelous. To say that "The Whole is bigger than its Parts" is catchy but not all there is to it. It is more apt to say "The Whole is the Collection of its Parts AND their Connections".
