Your source do talk about the introduction of tinned and canned meat.

I haven’t find ratio or quantity. But furthermore I find this bit problematic in the context of this conversation.

“ This period was, nutritionally speaking, an island in time; one that was created and subsequently squandered by economic and political forces”

In the light of this last paragraph, it seems incorrect to use this source to qualify the diet or the ( nebulous ) “past”. It seems to apply only for the Victorian era.

It’s satire right ?

no. what part would be satire?

Every paragraph has a flair of scientism and “technology will solve everything, don’t you worry.” While ignoring basic physical fact. ( like the intermittence of renewable. And the scarcity of material used in battery manufacturing )

which material is too scarce?

we already have tech to convert solar into hydrogen. just depends on how much you want to pay now vs later.

scientists now warning that antarctica is surprising them. my cousin works at nasa on climate predictions.

Digression :

The Gillet jaune started this way. Very true. But also self organise to be something vastly different pretty quickly. Maybe 20 days into that months long movement ( it’s not officially over; like Korea war … )

You can also describe something outside of A & B and it will be taken into account.

Pretty repetitive thougt

Nice find!

And yeah, repetition is an issue, there’s an instruction to not repeat story element in the initial prompt but it’s not working well. Any suggestions?

The USA being wealthy seems like a weird idea from a lot of the USA territory.

See : MS, LA, AL and consort.

At some point you can’t ignore the division between the map and the territory.

At best the USA is a country, with rich people in it.

As opposed to say, Switzerland, a rich country.

I whole fully agree with you. That being said, this last sentence…

> Someone needs to explain to the developing generation that this isnt the future.

I think crypto is much more like pokemon than "the internet". Much more like "coin collectables" of the 80s, than financial derivatives.

It's an attempt to destabalise domestic and international economic and financial systems that if ever even got close to being useful, would immediately be shut down.

The moment I can walk into a random shop and buy a chocolate bar with cyrpto is the moment the whole system will collapse.

Most crypto are running on Ethereum at this point. A lots of useless Bitcoin clone indeed.

But a lot is happening still. Heck, I think some of those chains even serve a actual purpose, without the computational issues. Crazy right ?

As for Bitcoin, I hope the money in it trickle down to actual useful things. But, trickling down. Well, we know how it goes .

Good point. Even reading the article I assumed that but at no point that gentleman mention consumption indeed.

If he concern about the “thin-air” aspect, someone has to tell him about the thin-air aspect of most financial things.

Or then they buy you and make you danse like the monkey you have always been.

Most cryptos as they are now are useless. Yes. The tech is not great and from a developer or entrepreneur standpoint it’s ... messy and hard to build on.

But what’s emerging now is faster, lighter, better documented, and you would not believe it but it’s true: some even serve a true purpose around the “trust-less” idea.

It’s around, deploying as we speak.

What examples do you have in mind?
