  • the poorest 20 percent of Americans

    HAS TO BE STATED OVER AND OVER AGAIN BECAUSE IT DOESN”T STICK

    —“The World Bank’s “preferred” indicator of material well-being is “consumption” of goods and services [because] “of reliability and consumption is thought to better capture long-run welfare levels than current income. …. The poorest 20 percent of U.S. households have higher average consumption per person than the averages for all people in most nations of the OECD and Europe. … Even the poorest 20 percent of Americans consumed three to 30 times more goods and services than the averages for all people in a wide array of developing nations around the world”—

    So they get poverty and we get … “roving bands of undesirables”.

  • THE BROWSER ECONOMY IS WELFARE FOR THE NERD CLASS How many billions (trillions)

    THE BROWSER ECONOMY IS WELFARE FOR THE NERD CLASS

    How many billions (trillions) of dollars will we waste on painful, tedious, useless, software development before javascript (livescript) fully transforms into Clojure (the ultimate programming language), and the JVM in the browser evolves into a closure virtual machine? Or why don’t we just legislate it and save those billions (trillions)?

    As far as I can tell the economy created by js and the browser are even more of a welfare system for the nerd class than copyright is for the creative class, and the military is to the middle and lower-middle class.

    There is no reason 1) Typing 2) Component Dependencies, 3) dom transactions, or a virtual dom store, 4) Compiling, can’t be conditionally, and 5) there isn’t any reason that there isn’t an equivalent standard UI for apps like there is for operating system shells (Desktop ui’s).

    What did Google do? They created Dart. What happened? They created Flutter for compiling cross-platform apps, and eliminated the need for a Dart virtual machine in the browser.

    Now if you’re Reality by Chanting, and you want Runcible to strike terror into the hearts of the big five, then you finally have a choice of rocking the world.

    The question is, whether it is possible to find programmers to convert a (huge) application like Runcible into Flutter(Dart), or whether we’re stuck with electron, react, and node.

    They don’t have poverty. They have relative incomes.
    The average european = American poor.

    Capitalism = Realism. It prevents ‘bad ideas’ from accumulating. It’s natural selection by markets, rather than dictators, groups, competitors, or nature.
