Wikipedia itself is high-maintenance because of the volatile deletionism. I appreciate the patience of the practical editors who have an inclusionist bent, but the add/protect process is too inefficient/risky for my liking. A lot of us don't have the time for political friction in simple knowledge sharing.

AMD keeping the same standard TDPs at 105W and 65W was such a good design decision. Clear contrast to Samsung's oft-criticized MLC to TLC move with their 980 Pro.

People care about both absolute TDP and power efficiency.

The cost of a product is not only replacement price but also replacement time. Replacing with an alternative is more cost than an identical. High-quality long-life products have excellent value efficiency. The key to online review info is convenient centralized interfaces and accurate-trustable reviews. Curation is the future.

Thought experiment. Suppose 10K people have the technology and willingness to volunteer enough worktime to provide the essentials for all of the US. Some basic income program is implemented to distribute these necessities. Possible? Yes. Sustainable? Yes, bounded by science and political stability. Good? Yes on quality of life floor and economic freedom. Conditional yes depending on competitive accessibility of the system (anti corruption/abuse). Fair? Better if more people share the work burden.

Wise governments should set policies to help this transition.

Incorrect. The use of discarded product by non-market flows has no effect on market price.

We need a new economy. The ability to work and survive does not need to be so precarious. If households could make everything themselves, no abstract shock or "job market" would disturb them. But that is not reality. The key challenges... dependency coordination, natural resource control, and circular negotiation. Answer these to clarify the transition.

Which is better? Basic income or guaranteed jobs?

Are we ok if Alex works 40hrs/wk for 50K/yr total income while Brett and his girlfriend work 0 for 30K/yr?

If robots do actually everything prices are zero. No need for BI or GJ.

This is why options are dangerous. Other people set the price of the stock.

That said, stocks are fundamentally safer. If you own company X and they succeed/profit well longterm, you receive great dividends regardless of the stock price.

High unemployment means that people with money are buying too slowly and/or too non-uniformly.

The responsibility to spend money quickly/uniformly falls intuitively on the rich, and thoughtfully also with the poor. Everyone, truly.

This is the fundamental monetary-macroeconomic problem. How to guarantee the flow of money through everyone.

How many hours of other people's worktime do you consume every day? Obviously they want you to work for them too. That's what trade is.

So what does fair trade look like? How much forced charity is fair?

Junk info removed, mediocre info replaced, tags avoided, logically indexed, curation anti-gaming power-tiered, simplicity focused. I like the principles a lot.

I assume that "using questions" means something like contributors post pre-answered questions, hearkening back to the "questions prime the reader for the knowledge" idea you mentioned earlier. Also was glad to hear you're keeping design elements flexible to upgrade to whatever works better.

Sounds a bit like hackernews for compact knowledge, and I am curious how you will handle the contribution rules without sectioning (what kind of info is allowed) and logical indexing design.

I'd love to take a look and offer my thoughts when you're ready for private review. It's hard to find people who share a proactive passion for the progression of knowledge systems. Couldn't find your email on your hackernews bio, so just email me instead!
