The supply of food was unstable but the means to find it was not changing all the time. Once you built up a certain foraging / hunting skill the skillset is done. You don't have to relearn it 10 times.

Yeah but I didn't have to learn how Spear.JS worked in the new monthly update in order to go catch food. The skills I needed and my relationships did not change as often.

UK has managed to cheap skate on many different fronts. When money was cheap they went on a cost cutting spree for a decade when they should have been using all of that money to invest in services and infrastructure. Now everything is crumb

A lot of comments in this thread are assuming that the “smart” engineers aren’t self aware enough to realize what they are doing. Let me suggest more provocatively that what we often are witnessing is power dynamics. And these people being

Sorry to be cliched but do you think AI could make a difference here by thinking for us ?

Surprised I had to scroll so far down to see this. You hit the nail on the head. ChatGPT suddenly made the task of making a Google replacement 10x easier. The issue being the cost. Now imagine a world where we figure out ways to make these

I am already willing to pay 15-20 dollars a month for this. Google will fall behind as others give this out as a paid service. Don’t need ads for something this useful.

Enforcing consequences is difficult as laws and bureaucracies become ever more complex. This gives plenty of space for opportunists and tricksters to hide. You don’t ever have to fear being beheaded by the people whose life savings you stol

Simple answer - We don’t have enough energy and raw materials for everyone to live like Western Europeans.

Yes they created a global reserve currency they can print to get energy as they need and a super large military to force everyone to go along with it. Securing large amounts of cheap energy is non trivial as europe is beginning to find out.

I have a rule of thumb for job hopping - If it’s your Nth job in your career you can job hop after N years at that job. In your first year you can hop after a year. Then you stay for 2 years at the next , 3 years at the next and so on. Sta

A housing crash would be destabilizing in its own right and it would hurt the rich Tories. So there’s no way they are letting it happen. They will fight it tooth and nail.

The UK imports large amounts of energy and other things essential to its prosperity. The UK has a current account deficit which means it does not have enough of the dollar to cover for its imports. It has solved this problem over the years

I have been wondering recently whether this is a bad thing. Because having the right ideas in memory is often required for making creative leaps. Relying too much on google can actually inhibit creativity.
