Understanding Donor Systems of Value and Priority Theory
Economics is a study that is of course concerned with how resources are allocated in a society. There are many different “theories of value”, such as the well-known marginal utility […]
The Overhead of Private Property
Introduction I have made the case before (elsewhere, not here) that private property, besides simply requiring more copies to fulfill the same demand, creates a large amount of economic overhead. […]
Aspects of a Natural Economy
I still feel much of what I’ve written is not accessible to the general public. This post will focus on an easily understandable overview of what defines a natural economy […]
Priority levels defined more rigorously
As I’ve covered before, a computational economy uses preemption and priority levels for its allocation schemes. Priority levels are used to determine, when demand exceeds constraints, which demands to fulfill […]
Little Allocation for an M/M/c queue
In queuing theory, an M/M/c queue is one where arrivals (λ) happen by a Markov (Poisson) process, average time spent in the queue (μ) is also a Markov/Poisson process, and […]
Rethinking our Priorities.
The job I held before my current one was working as a server (among other things) in a high-end bakery. My boss, the sous chef, loved to bake; she also […]
Functional processes
A functional process is something that maps a set of inputs to a set of outputs. This can include production processes, which turn inputs into different outputs, construction processes, which […]
Fundamentals, Continued
If you’ve been following, you may have noticed that though I defined three basic parameters, S, E, and D, I only used two of them. If it wasn’t clear before, […]
Fundamentals of Natural Economics
If you are unfamiliar with the basics of calculus, you can get a brief lesson here. Scarcity and Abundance The way we currently (at least supposedly) deal with scarcity is […]
