Interesting book,thanks for signaling. Car with motors burning fossil fuels are (probably, hopefully) doomed. But a combustion engine using synthetic-fuels made with CO2 + solar energy can play a role, like a small compact light co-generato

One thing is try to do a new(?) math in a finite way, good luck, we will see the results, and check agains is still proved. (I think others contraddiction will arise, will be funny..) Another thing is to start a holy war against a concept,

AGI will earn a salary, pay taxes, buy goods? So this is: maximizing for efficiency and production, but who will buy all this? Maybe pushing all possible to AI / AGI will end in a global deep recession or worse, seems the course is und

Giving no credits on a "co-author" is a bit different than plagiarize (a theft). It's reasonable to suppose than both authors can have reach results indipendently, given enough time, working on the same matter, maybe Dedekin

maybe a wise use of technology?: never adopt a higher complexity tech when a lower one fit well. And white boards are less clear (to me) and markers dry (often in the worst moment). And about slides... very easy for prof, but i cannot copy

Economy is way too much growth, as inequality and inefficiency, pollution, and resource exaustion, being mainly based on finance and speculation and not on -real- economy, for the good of a very small part of humanity. Has to grow in this m
