Things are probably going to get worse before they get better, and plausibly quite a bit worse, but in terms of positioning one's business over the medium term, I'd be spending a lot of time thinking "What changes to the status quo are going to be the new normal going forward?"

Also broadly I think many of us are going to get an education in non-linearity of systems, including supply chains, logistics, the healthcare system, etc, and the fact that humans are so bad about reasoning about non-linear effects will create some demand for aided reasoning.

Non-linearity of systems example: a Rails app which has 400 ms p99 responses with 0% drop at 1,000 requests per minute, 5000 ms p99 responses with 20% drop at 1,200 requests per minute, and ~100% drop at 1,500 requests per minute. Sounds implausible... if you haven't done Rails.

The things that will start showing implausible amounts of strain at striking thresholds are much more important than Rails apps and the impact to their ability to deliver service to the standard SLA is much worse than "a request gets dropped on the floor."

I don't know about Walmart, but hurricanes, typhoons, estates, nuclear accidents etc have taken ports out of supply chains before

Is this something that a supply chain optimization program (https://llamasoft.com/supply-chain-guru/ … is the one I'm aware of) can predict, or are there other complications?
