Well negative interest rates could be appropriate for negative economic growth. So if we never allow for negative interest rates we never allow for negative economic growth.
But if we ever want to achieve singularity, we have to allow our economy to shrink to (zero).
So i looked at this map http://www.charts.noaa.gov/OnLineViewer/11323.shtml and the water depth seems to be about 60 feet if i'm doing it right, i don't know if this is considered safe in such cases or how long they would take to reach a safe depth. Guess it just makes me uncomfortable to have them idle there fully loaded to make a better buck.
So is the risk of an tsunami so low there that it is considered safe to have fully loaded oiltankers idle off the coast, or would this be not a problem for those tankers?
This is interesting. I have written a django backend written for an organization already having a wordpress site. Having never written a piece of php code i must ask: Are you aware of any resources that could be particularly helpful for the php/wordpress part? Or is it more like embedding a lot of javascript into your wordrpess site?
Those discussions always seem to miss the point.
I think it is really obvious that our economic system struggles with stagnation, but really seems to break if an econmy (god forbid) shrinks for whatever reason.
If not for that constraint i guess economies in western countries would have already shrunken quite a bit due to automatisation. For me the cause seems to be to a fundamental bug in our intertemporal trade system.
