- thuuuomas 10mo agoWe aren’t even mining asteroids near Earth’s orbit. Space colonization is a ketamine dream. There’s no extraterrestrial economy. Earth is all we have. One pie.
- elevatortrim 10mo agoBecause we are spending our resources on stupid shit like tiktok virals funded by ads.
- twoodfin 10mo agoA pie that includes sand which is now turned into GPUs that can solve complex problems described in English. Value that was unlocked fairly recently from “one pie”.
- thuuuomas 10mo agoTell me, is the deployment of that famous talking sand at all resource-constrained?
- twoodfin 10mo agoOf course: Everything is resource-constrained. That’s why it’s called economics. The question was whether the “pie”—total economic output—has a meaningful upper bound on growth because we only have a whole planet full of resources to exploit as our minds and capabilities allow. The answer is no, and history bears that out.
