RIP Sid Krofft, the Sleestaks from “Land of the Lost” may have been my earliest nightmare fuel, and I mean that in the best way.

Three data centers remain, solar-powered, in continuous relay with one another.
They continuously transfer electronic funds back and forth with one another, silently.
At long last, the economy is perfect.
using AI to monkey wrench AI is the way.
