I suspect these will need truly significant infrastructure changes to actually function as last mile.

So, trade could bring wood, materials, solar, desalinaton. If done slowly, over years, as parts submerge, it wouldn't be a massive outlay at once.

I agree.. not cheap, but individual citizens have to buy building materials currently, their new houses would just be on stilts.

It isn't a URL. As per RFC 3986 [0]:

> The term "Uniform Resource Locator" (URL) refers to the subset of URIs that [..] provide a means of locating the resource by describing its primary access mechanism

Since "foo.bar" does not describe an access mechanism, it is not a URL. Yes, you could make the argument that "foo.bar" is a relative-path reference as described in section 4.2, but that is only used to:

> express a URI reference relative to the name space of another hierarchical URI

So "foo.bar" can only be considered a URL in the context of another given URL, and in your example there is none.

For those who also weren't sure, I learned that this is an actual quote from Mr. Musk to a U.S. Senator and Senate Finance Chairman.

https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1457497438474981384

I infer the point to be that Mr. Musk trolls so frequently and thoughtlessly that it's impossible to tell whether he believes the things he's saying, which is why quotes from him are mostly worthless as guiding principles.

Not commenting on Google, but the problem with monopolies is you don't know what other and potentially better products might exist now if there was fair competition. Companies aren't going to fund a competing product when they know they're against a powerful monopoly.

"But the company being accused of having a monopoly has the best product and I like it" was said about Windows too when they were locking out competition. It's short-sighted.

You're the worst kind of person.

You assume bad faith and evil from everyone except yourself.

You read what you wanted to read into my comment and ignored anything that contradicted your view that I'm ignorant/oblivious/probably an evil harassing rapist.

I live in the most densely populated city in the US, and was born, raised and have lived here most of my life.

I am acutely aware of the situation and the issue, but you assume you know know better than anyone else. Which is a bunch of entitled (although entitlement of a different kind than I mentioned in the comment to which you responded) bullshit from an entitled, self-righteous asshole. That'd be you, in case there was some confusion about that.

So, as I should have said (which was my initial impression, given your deliberately obtuse and clearly bad faith response to my comment), fuck off jerk.

Which is what most women I know will say to entitled assholes like you.

Edit: It occurs to me that I didn't explain myself clearly enough. As such, I will. And I'll use small words so you'll be sure to understand.

>If you can't understand that under these circumstances some women become anxious at the idea of men starting small talk with them, well that's too bad.

Who said that? Not me. In fact, I said just the opposite.

>As for what you can do, maybe start with asking women you know how they feel about it.

Who says I haven't? I'm sure I've had more conversations about stuff like this than you have. But you seem to be so wrapped up in how sensitive you are to even imagine that someone else could have been there long before you.

>Maybe they are all fine with it. It is also very dependent of where you live. If you live in a dense city women get harassed way more often than in a suburb area, it's kind of a number problem

I am quite aware. But small talk isn't harassment. That you equate them says more about you than it does about the very serious problem of harassment.

Given that you've decided that anyone who doesn't explicitly mirror your talking points, they're obviously idiots, evil or both, shows exactly how disrespectful, self-centered and entitled you are. I definitely wouldn't leave any woman alone with you.

Corporate debt. Fed raised rates and then when it came time to roll over their debt, a lot of major corporations said "Uh, if interest rates keep going up, we are going to go bankrupt because of the higher costs of debt service." The markets had a taper tantrum (the S&P 500 dropped by about 18% in the second half of 2018), and then the Fed reconsidered and started dropping rates again.

Situation is worse now, because it's highly likely that the U.S. Government would go bankrupt if they had to roll over their debt at higher rates, given that the U.S. debt-to-GDP ratio skyrocketed from 105% in 2020 to 130% now.

Somebody has to stock up. Just-in-time delivery didn't, and that's why we're in this supply chain situation.

In the future, not only is it possible your money will buy you less, it is also possible that no amount of money, no matter how large, can obtain what you need.

For instance, anything with a silicon chip in it. For some goods, every known upstream retailer is out of stock, with no idea when it will be replenished, and the resellers are doing business at way above MSRP.

An efficient economy doesn't mean you can do anything you can imagine is technically possible; it means that market rates with everything priced in properly will discover whether or not enough people value it enough to pay for it.
The only way to consistently have margins above 70% is a strong lock in effect. All the other reasons who listed don't matter when a venture capitalist with a couple billion dollars can come in and rebuild the software. At 70% margins they absolutely would do that. The reason they don't is because consumers wouldn't actually switch to their product, even if it is cheaper, because they're already locked in.

Super interesting points, IMHO.

And it brings up the point that while I've talked with many folks in different fields about time-travel thinking, I have never found a field where it's not useful to bend one's mind in this way. I've come to the conclusion that we have to shift the way we think about ourselves in time, so we can navigate more successfully as a species. I suppose that's obvious from the article.

Anyway, to address your question re: Prisoner's Dilemma equivalent within a time-travel paradigm -- isn't that what virtually every Dr. Who episode is really asking?

But more recently -- to my view the movie Arrival successfully solves a time-travel-inspired Prisoner's Dilemma by modeling the Present Amy Adams as capable of negotiating with her Past and Future selves (as the captors) and bringing actionable tactics into the Present. So she not only succeeds in being released from prison, she saves the world too.

So it's communication and collaboration with the captors (the non-Present versions of ourselves) that can turn them (us) into advocates.

Meanwhile, the other prisoners are the aliens, who have access to the same strategy over time (and use it to teach Amy Adams' character). There can't be any clear communication between them, but they can circumvent this by connecting in the future and being aware of that connection in the Past/Present.

So it's a brilliant solution to the prisoner's dilemma -- just because you can't communicate in the present doesn't mean that after you get released you can't share how you did it!

The interesting thing about the future, in general, is it's way less crowded than the past and present -- because the past and present are where most people think you have to do things to get them done.

>> I sense that they are intentionally covering the situation in non-inflammatory way.

>We want more of this though right?

Yes, in principle, but with the caveat that they don't do this in a partisan and selective way. For instance the whole "Kids in Cages" phenomenon is still happening but we never hear about it anymore - in fact they're just called "Child Migrant Facilities" by the press secretary and the media is basically silent compared to the fervor they were covering the situation previously. To me at least, the fact that they calmed down isn't a consolation because I sense they're just doing it because their preferred team is in charge now.

I think journalists are masters of rhetoric and can spin a situation in so many diverse ways while still being almost entirely accurate and truthful. It all depends on what facets of the situation they want to present and the insinuations that come along with it.

Scaling to revenue isn't unfair. It's how you properly scare multinationals into compliance.
I'm wondering what the effect would be if the money from the fines is burned (destroyed).

The company would still feel the same incentive. For the government on the other hand, it removes the incentive to fine for one's own gain. I like that it would remove this conflict of interest.

By removing the money, it's essentially very slightly reducing inflation.
Yes, but those are generally long term structural factors, where near term fed policy isn’t the primary driver.

Over the time I have learned that best way to store is to optimise for retrieval - not for storage.

The most likely resolution would be a land purchase in (for example) Fiji along with a grant of autonomous power on that land, in exchange for a fishing lease in Tuvaluan waters.

Fiji gets a share of Tuvaluan fishing grounds, and the Tuvaluans get a place to live AND some protection for their territorial waters by a nation that is still landed.
