I can tell from the downvotes that people heavily disagree with me. But if no one is able to work, and one person ( the automation owner ) now has all the money. I don't see that as a good thing. But, we'll see how that plays out.

I always thought a good tax would be on automation. It's hard to define. But, at 100% automation, where no human is efficient at working -vs- machine labor, then all automation output should flow to the people, or a 100% automation tax

“Apple has a monopoly on not shitty hardware” I had a chuckle at that too, I've seen a lot of monopoly arguments devolve into, [x] is too good, [y] can not compete with a similar but lower quality offering, this is anti competitive.

Yeap, with the speed of information having a propagation limit, you can make that assertion. But, as soon as FTL becomes real ( if it's possible to be real ), it turns out, that assertion was wrong. The universe has no requirement to f

I second that. Browser distinction between web apps and web pages is an awesome idea. I think the hard part is preventing users from learning to always click 'yes' to web-app level permissions just because the page instructs the b

If that happened, I think we'd be able to determine that by sampling and analyzing the microbes. I think a more interesting concept would be exchange of microbes between Venus and Earth at some point in their distant past, and then cou

Yes, "life" is a "pathway". The link for the paper didn't work for me, but I'm thinking the issue here is the "pathway" with "life" involved is now the simplest system that can produce the o

I think in that situation, YouTube would take adshare to 0%. YouTube then is just a place to upload videos and make them public. No expectation of turning a profit. For a premium fee you pay YouTube, you could get some of that adshare, and

1 person vs a large company is a power imbalance. The company doesn't even need you to survive. You need it.

This makes me think about it mathematically. C(us) -> M{us}; C(ch) -> M{us,ch}; P(c) proportional M; S{C} -> P; Where, the company with greater market access, has greater access to profit, and then greater chances of winning. We st

I don't think you should have been downvoted so much. It's smart to recognize an internal-to-self conflict and ask questions. I don't think 'Someone smarter than me should tell me what to think.' is a good endpoint
