tools have been overlooked almost completely
Also even popular people like Guido van Rossum can't get enough funds to improve compilers of such an important language as Python [0]. And current patent system doesn't support developing of software tools because everything is already owned by some patent trolls. For instance, why do they still not use AI agents [1] in machine code optimization? I think, it is not a coincidence. Just read recent news about Chinese hacking the USA hardware. Along with Russians they just dumb you down. So serious private-sector money could be raised.
Only after Elon's Tesla have a comfortable win over them again, I guess... You don't have to pay 60% taxes to get these.
Exactly. Poor Western Europeans are robbed by their corrupted governments, IMHO. In Ukraine programmers pay only 5% tax, when everyone else - around 40%. So, come to us! : ) In the Copenhagen area property prices are already growing faster than salaries.
Yeah, that's what worries me - landowners having earned enough wealth will start to use their land for other purposes. Or there will be other wealthy people who will order such a reassignment. Thus increasing prices faster than technology can increase supply. It seems unlikely, but who knows for sure? Thanks for the info! Take now... some hard-headed business man, who has no theories, but knows how to make money. Say to him:
"Here is a little village; in ten years it will be a great city; in ten years the railroad will have taken
the place of the stage coach, the electric light of the candle; it will abound with all the machinery and
improvements that so enormously multiply the effective power of labor. Will in ten years, interest be any
higher?" He will tell you, "No!" "Will the wages of the common labor be any higher...?" He will tell you,
"No the wages of common labor will not be any higher..." "What, then, will be higher?" "Rent, the
value of land. Go, get yourself a piece of ground, and hold possession." And if, under such circumstances, you
take his advice, you need do nothing more. You may sit down and smoke your pipe; you may lie around like
the lazzaroni of Naples or the leperos of Mexico; you may go up in a balloon or down a hole in the ground;
and without doing one stroke of work, without adding one iota of wealth to the community, in ten years you
will be rich! In the new city you may have a luxurious mansion, but among its public buildings will be
an almshouse.
I would add: "Or get some intellectual property everyone must buy." /s Cost of living skyrockets,
and so does the cost of new production and hiring.
Doesn't automation make wages diminishing? Also, please, read this:
Please, read my reply to one of the authors of Angr, a binary analysis tool. Here is an excerpt:
> A "brute-force" algorithm (an exhaustive search, in other words) is the easiest way to find an answer to almost any engineering problem. But it often must be optimized before being computed. The optimization may be done by an AI agent based on neural nets, or a learning Mealy machine.
> Isn't it interesting what is more efficient: neural nets or a learning Mealy machine?
...Then I describe what is a learning Mealy machine. And then:
> Some interesting engineering (and scientific) problems are: - finding an input for a program that hacks it; - finding a machine code for a controller of a bipedal robot, which makes it able to work in factories;
