I've been in this endeavor with Surface Book 2. While the results where good, the CPU usage for software DSP killed the entire effort. Microsoft is using intel's DSP accelerator to do this. While linux technically can use intel's audio DSP I never had enough time to dig into it

What DSP accelerator does Intel have?

my guess is Intel provides software windows uses to accelerate common dsp operations with simd/sse etc.

Thank you for brilliant comment highligthing the OSS issues.

But I believe you're missing the main point that OP is making: OSS will _statistically_ dominate every single niche.

There are just more reasons why non-OSS software would cease to exist - so eventually Inkscape will become a de-facto standard for Illustrator things; Blender will become de-facto standard of all 3D-Max things; OBS will become a de-facto standard of all Macromedia Flash Broadcast ... oh wait ... did that happen already?

Thank you very much for support!

Yes, behind the scenes it lowers the high-level logic of Python to predicate logic, uses RETE on that predicate logic to do the fastest possible JOIN operations on the tables, and uses machine learning to extract heuristics from the task and data to enable feasible monte-carlo search for valid plans.

All that means you input the rules for the "game", and it finds the way to reach the goal, no matter how complex the interactions or data are inside.

Yes, PROLOG with modern Python syntax and mostly imperative flow, commercial database experience instead of "build everything yourself", and ML-based heuristics that are learned on the fly instead of whatever hardcoded logic the particular interpreter had.

This is sometimes referred to as "Automated planning and scheduling" or simply "AI Planning" in academia.

I'd say what this all proves is that a free market and private sector is much better at those things than a communist'y government-run project.

Supply chain is a black box with people who are aggressively not interested in transparency. So the approach is to model the black box as good as we can, and start cutting away the pieces with automation.

My thoughts :) Get the mess solved here first. As a comment on your ideas - there are extremely powerful forces that would oppose any openness in logistics as it's filled with shady gangs. We need to act together to beat them off the market.

Alternatively we could merge with the machines and all go virtual. But I am to believe that part of the humanity will remain explorers and will want to go beyond our star. That's where the physics kicks in. There simply isn't enough energy that can be mined and extracted from minerals.

Where do you hope to get your energy, beyond our star?

This is, presumably, after you have fused all of Neptune and Uranus. I guess you could start in on Saturn, or Planet X.

There are several options how to make harvested energy work for interstellar travel

1. Just beam it with a huge laser to the spacecraft (google for several proposed projects already in development and plans for launch) 2. Store it onboard the spacecraft and then use, with multiple options and different levels of today's technology feasibility like creating a small spinning black hole or creation of exotic matter for warp drive
