RE: What I learn by writing daily

What is good locally might do harm globally.
I find myself wondering if the corollary
What is harmful locally is good globally.
Might be a factor in things like school shootings. I know the climate change, overpopulation stuff is drilled into them pretty hard; then there's the 'Life is the result of a string of accidents, everything is meaningless' conclusion of the materialism they teach.
Is it any wonder kids are 'doing the planet a favour' here and there?

Yes it can work in reverse too in a "learn from other's mistakes" kind of way. In a decent decentralized network, the harm in one location can become a lesson learned at all others.

One example could be autonomous cars and the ethics/laws of what happens under crash conditions. Even at a base level, the learning of one car sliding off the road on ice for example could send out an update warning to all other cars approaching the area and have them adjust accordingly.

These wake up call learning opportunities could do a lot of good.

Yes, I was talking to an air crash investigator once; and he said they're genuinely delighted when there's a really dangerous near miss.
Its a free lesson; a chance to learn about a mistake hiding in the system; without having to pay for it in lives.

The best lessons are cheap, but have a lot of upside.
