sometimes people remark at how extensive ancient civilations became with such simple technology, yet here we are. billions of people being served by things like BGP and SS7.

as i get older, i become more and more concerned with humanity's lack of fault tolerance.

brett weinstein clued me into this as an evolutionary phenomena. if a gene activates a short-term solution and long-term problem, that gene is likely to be favored.

how do we transcend this problem that seems to be inherent with existing? a first-principal problem?
