AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the hypothetical scenario where atoms can be rearranged at will, raising questions about the implications for trade. The ability to create anything from anything could fundamentally alter economic systems, potentially eliminating scarcity and changing the nature of value and exchange. The conversation also touches on the challenges faced by innovative thinkers, drawing a parallel to historical figures like Newton who faced ridicule for their ideas. The dialogue includes a debate on literacy and communication, emphasizing that understanding the concept is more important than the form of expression. Overall, the conversation explores the transformative potential of advanced atomic manipulation on trade and societal structures.

Thread 'My experience as a hostage'

I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
