Oddbean new post about login | logout @fe642545 but they only need bridges, if they can't fly! @134318c2
@5a4c912a @134318c2 This is true but they'll only fly to the shops. On the way back the bags will be heavy so they'll have to walk or drive.
@fe642545 only if they have shops. or bags. maybe they have flying horses and pouches like cangaroos and all what they need grows on a single tree in their backyard ;) @134318c2
@5a4c912a @134318c2 I'm fascinated by the implications of everyone having a tree in their backyard which provides them with all they need. I want to read stories about the society which would come to pass. Would they understand the concept of community? What would happen if the tree were damaged? How would they handle population growth - planting more trees at the same rate? This sounds like a metaphor that can be used to talk about post-scarcity and full-automated societies.
