Cancer cells are another good example of this

creating and destroying; flying cars, jet engines, roc.camera, july.rocks /faust

I still keep coming back to this idea that long lasting systems have an element of inscrutability- that is there to make the system natural non convex so that you can’t fully optimize it - and forces people to create models that try to optimize it but never fully do

Not perfect. But I equate coin everything to mass litter.

you have really said really well. Love this approach
