Crypto PM. Salon over soapbox. Maybe a metarationalist or something. How do we improve large-scale human collaboration?

      Thoughts on the impact of the information explosion on society: When the agricultural revolution happened, people traded ok but scarce diets for shittier but more readily available ones.

      I assume some elites never traded (down), and continued to consume the more varied and nutritionally dense food that was previously available, but the resulting population explosion shifted the social organization into a more highly structured caste system...

      ...partially because society got that much more complicated with that many more people.

      The current information explosion isn't really leading to a higher population (if anything, people are fucking less, and there are more types of birth control), but it does seem like it's introducing something weird into the underlying class system that exists today.

          People are both more geographically mobile and more limited by their dependence on the trappings of civilization - it's much harder to gather a group of people and walk away into the forest if you want to, both for technical and power-asymmetrical reasons.

          People still compete with status displays but there's a rapidly accelerating aesthetic arms race, where the previously scarce signaling mechanisms (colours, design, branding) get rapidly reverse engineered and imitations flood the market and destroy the signal's utility.

          The frontiers are all virtual, which leaves peoples' bodies abandoned in physical space.
