  6. A quotation from Samuel Johnson

    The distance is commonly very great between actual performances and speculative possibility. It is natural to suppose, that as much as has been done to-day may be done to-morrow; but on the morrow some difficulty emerges, or some external impediment obstructs. Indolence, interruption, business, and pleasure, all take their turns of retardation; and every long work is lengthened by a thousand causes that can, and ten thousand that cannot, be recounted. Perhaps no extensive and multifarious performance was ever effected within the term originally fixed in the undertaker’s mind. He that runs against Time, has an antagonist not subject to casualties.

    Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
    Lives of the Most Eminent English Poets, “Pope” (1781)

  15. 12. To build anything is to expend energy. The bigger the thing, the more energy. All processes require energy; some require extremely high temperatures, high pressures, or other extreme levels of energy. Cement making, for instance, is a textbook high energy process.
    Anything possible which would reduce fuel use and emissions immediately is a cessation of or slowing of some industrial or other high energy process.

  16. #Deflation And #Slowing #Growth: Why 2023 Will See Both Continue And Cause Increased Fragility

    - Adem Tumerkan , Seeking Alpha

    I still maintain that inflationary pressures peaked in June and will continue declining - I expect core-goods deflation in 2023.

    The three factors - supply, demand, and monetary - that fueled a post-COVID inflationary boom are all now working in reverse; deflating quickly.

    The two major spigots of liquidity - fiscal and monetary - are both tightening, thus taking away from real growth momentum.

    Deflation will continue - and that's a problem for a credit-fueled global monetary system

  17. @mfioretti_en I was struggling with the mandatory #slowing down idea until I understood this might not be assured by #legal provisions: “there will be at least one major difference from Twitter: Narwhal will focus on the quality of #conversations, rather than #speed” made me understand it would be possible if a provider of a service #profits from it.
