Policy recommendations from B & M for potential job loss from technology
- Teach the Children Well
- Restart Startups
- Make more matches
- Support our scientiest
- Upgrade infrastructure
- Since we must tax, tax wisley
negative income tax
The idea of negative income tay is that, when your income is below the break-even point, you would get a fraction of it as a payment “from” the government. You would receive the funds instead of buying them.
Employment in non-profits
10%
net neutrality
bezeichnet die Gleichbehandlung von Daten bei der Übertragung im Internet und den diskriminierungsfreien Zugang bei der Nutzung von Datennetzen. Netzneutrale Internetdienstanbieter behandeln alle Datenpakete bei der Übertragung gleich, unabhängig von Sender und Empfänger, dem Inhalt der Pakete und der Anwendung, die diese Pakete generiert hat.
Financing of the Energy Internet
Energy Internet—is being financed by consumers, with lesser amounts being ponied up by governments, primarily to stimulate research and development of new enabling technologies.
Platforms on the Internet to help SMEs
- Crowd founding (AngelList, Kickstarter)
- Digital utilities (Skype, Linux)
- Professional services marketplaces (Elance, Guru.com)
- Micro manufacturing (Alibaba.com, Ponoko)
- Innovation marketplaces (InnoCentive, NineSigma)
- E-Commerce platforms (google adwords, Facebook, Ebay)
Patient driven healthcare
- Patients share their medical records with other people, insurance companies etc. trough the internet
Online health communities
provide a means for patients and their families to learn about an illness, seek and offer support, and connect with others in similar circumstances.
reputation ranking
ThredUP operates by what it calls its “golden ThredUp rule,” that asks its members to only send the“quality of apparel” they would expect to receive in return. ThredUP ranks the “quality” of each members’ items on a four-star scale. A second rating, called “style points,” which goes from 0 to 10, ranks the items on their “stylishness.” The final ranking is a measure of the “punctuality” of their members’ shipments.
DNA sequencing
DNA-Sequenzierung ist die Bestimmung der Nukleotid-Abfolge in einem DNA-Molekül. Die DNA-Sequenzierung hat die biologischen Wissenschaften revolutioniert und die Ära der Genomik eingeleitet. Seit 1995 konnte durch DNA-Sequenzierung das Genom von über 1000 (Stand: 2010) verschiedenen Organismen analysiert werden
3D biopriniting
The 3D bioprinting of supplemental tissues, including heart patches, nerve grafts, blood vessel
segments, and cartilage for degenerating joints, is expected to be in widespread use within the next
ten years.
Peer-to-peer lending
It’s called peer-to-peer lending or social lending. Online banking platforms like Zopa, Lending Club, and Prosper lend money directly to individuals and projects. These online financing mechanisms are becoming popular alternative lending vehicles to traditional banks because they eliminate the middlemen and the high fixed costs of large financial institutions that are passed on to lenders in the form of higher interest rates.
collaborative commons
The heart of this transformation is collaborative commons, which, Rifkin says, is emerging from the old paradigm of capitalism. He illustrates with the following example: “In a traditional market, sellers are always constantly probing for new technologies that can increase their productivity, reduce their marginal costs so they can put out cheaper products and win over consumers and market share and beat out their competitors and bring some profit back to investors. So business people are always looking for ways to increase productivity and reduce their marginal cost, they simply never expected in their wildest dreams that there would be a technology revolution so powerful in its productivity that it might reduce those margins of cost to near zero making goods and services essentially free, priceless and beyond the market exchange economy. That's now beginning to happen in the real world.”
Elements that enabled the First Industrial Revolution and the Second Industrial Revolution
- Steam engine
- Telegraph
- Electricity
Results of Martin Luther’s attack on the church
- He argued that each man and woman stands alone before GodIndividuals are responsible for their own
- Democracy
Darwin
- Naturwissenschaftler
- Beiträge zur Evolutionstheorie
Aggregate energy efficiency in 3rd Industrial Revolution
- The efficeny about 15% in 2nd
- About 30 or 40% in the 3rd
Cost of the national Energy Internet
- 1.2 trillion dollar over the course of time
Bioshpere
- bezeichnet den Raum mit Leben eines Himmelskörpers. Es ist derjenige Raum, in dem Leben vorkommt. Der Begriff der Biosphäre hat im Verlauf des vergangenen Jahrhunderts zwei Bedeutungswandlungen erfahren.
- 12 miles above
Paradigm shift
- From Market Capitalism to the collaborative commons (Gemeinswirtschaft)
- A paradigm shift is a revolutionary change from one way of thinking to another. The paradigm we use and accept is dependent on us believing what we perceive to be true and accurate
- Change from 2nd to 3rd industrial age
Economic pillars and characteristics of 3rd Industrial Revolution
1) Shifting to renewable energy;
2) Transforming the building stock of every continent into green micro–power plants to collect renewable energies on-site;
3) Deploying hydrogen and other storage technologies in every building and throughout the infrastructure to store intermittent energies;
4) using Internet technology to transform the power grid of every continent into an energy internet that acts just like the Internet (when millions of buildings are generating a small amount of renewable energy locally, on-site, they can sell surplus green electricity back to the grid and share it with their continental neighbors); and
5) Transitioning the transport fleet to electric plug-in and fuel cell vehicles that can buy and sell green electricity on a smart, continental, interactive power grid.
Shift of individual trust
- From institutions to individual trust (peer trust)
- We are currently in a trust dance between people increasingly trusting direct connections with other people but falling back on the role of the established institution when peer trust fails. Brands have to figure out how to play in both worlds.
Characteristics of the Energy Internet
- Solar Energy
- Storage Energy
- Millions of smaller players are producing tiny amount of energy. You can send your green energy
- Internet brought to Energy
- P2P collaborating
Near zero marginal cost economy and some effects
- After paying the fix costs, every another unit that you produce.
- Making good and service free and priceless
Complementary currencies
Expl. Bitcoins
Difficulty in managing an open infrastructure
- The fist difficulty is in identifying which resources are truly foundational and explaining why this critical subset of infrastructure resources should be managed on a nondiscriminatory basis… once that obstacle is surmounted…. By which institutional means should commons management be achieved?
