Here's another redline I've been thinking about (between center left and center right.)

The center-left believes that the precautionary principle is general. (Including Taleb, who's been its foremost advocate!)

The center-right's social compact has major carve-outs for AI, programming, engineering, and whatever billionaires and their fans are invested in. Systemic Fraud Tolerance is downstream of these carveouts--- which could well be the parsimonious explanation for these diseconomies of scale.

From TFA: lobster.rs -> healthily AI-skeptic, center left. HN, that-whose-political-stance-must-not-be-named

There's an odd one out, 3-D printing (replacing [trans]kepticism of biohacking). Seems like the people who want to regulate it tend to be center-right to right.

This threat of losing control of the means of production feels even more real than reproduction?
