Yeah, no. In countries like India you don't use agents to buy or sell property and the free market finds value just fine. That's just one example I'm familiar with and it was pre internet.

How is the symbolic transformation approach different between Modia and ModelingToolkit for ODEs ? I would guess Modia probably uses the same method as Dymola but not sure if MTK has any specific advantages here. As of now, Modias DSL feels

Toyota aren't technologically sophisticated by design. They only use tried and tested technology which have been out for years. This is how they have stellar reliability. However I think they really innovated on hybrids. German OEMs ha

How does one go about getting access in the US to use a frequency that can cover a large area per access point? I've worked in remote mines before which heavily use telemetry and they all seem to be on 2.4 ghz mesh networks. IIRC they

>Make it easier to change jobs and help raise wages by banning or limiting non-compete agreements and unnecessary, cumbersome occupational licensing requirements that impede economic mobility. Good. Really needs to be a law. Not sure how

I'm actually impressed that the government has taken note of this issue. IMO non-compete agreements should not be allowed for anyone. It really drives down wages, especially in highly specialized fields. Double whammy if the worker is

I wonder if someone has figured out how to use inkjet or screen printing to make a simple wifi/bluetooth transmitter or an NFC tag. So far I've only seen the antennas printable but not the transistor logic.
