“Supply chains are a new class of engineered-emergent artifact, one that includes a few other globe-spanning things like the internet, the air travel system, and low earth orbit, that exist at a level of Gaian phenomenology, terraforming, and planet-scale husbandry.We only ever catch local glimpses of these things.”
“We have to understand these beasts, in all their evolving, learning glory, while living within their bellies.“
