  • I did the same using GDP. About 10 years ago the numbers were like this in Canada: the average income was $56k the average tax burden is $7k and the GDP per WORKER was $90k. It’s so funny to watch people complain about the $7k the hobby takes to build society when you ignore the $44k in profit you generate for the rich.

    The beauty of the stepped back approach is that because all wages are included and all economic output is captured you don’t need to solve for c, it’s included in wages and surplus value.

    The machinery of capital is built on a large pile of labor + stolen surplus value all the way down to the raw material. So it’s all captured with the above.

    They may be fragile but they are also extremely strong compared to a person. Here is a Tesla bot falling and hitting a closed water bottle hard enough to send water spraying. No human would do that as an international action.

    Maybe they’re not stronger in the absolute, but you never find a human just giving 100% power by accident, we also sense unintended contact, or unexpected material yield and adjust our force. And maybe that’s the problem here, robots constantly glitch and just give 100% force to whatever is around them.


  • The most terrifying thing about these robots is their insane power density. If you were walking around and saw that you wouldn’t feel at risk. It has the strength to tear its metal and plastic body to dust. We just saw it. No human could do that, yet these robots deceive us with their human like appearance.

    The slightest twitch, error, our bug and they turn into human meat blenders killing anyone around them. Even worse is intentional harm by the owner… And the manufacturer will often have an override access letting them theoretically possess a robot army at will with only their good virtue stopping them. Elon Musk is about to have this…

    The future is going to be a weird and dangerous place!








  • It’s insane that he pretended to be terrorists of Islamist, feminist, white supremacist, and Zionist origins, but the only one any government cared about in any way was the Islamist terrorists persona. It’s also insane that he was convicted of being an Islamist terrorist when it’s clear that he wasn’t an Islamist because they knew about all the personas.
