The Curious Tales
The Curious Tales@thecurioustales·
🚨 JUST IN: A migratory bird just shattered world records — flying 8,425 miles (13,560 km) NON-STOP across the Pacific without landing once. The bar-tailed godwit doesn’t stop to eat, drink, or sleep during its migration across the Pacific Ocean. Its journey from Alaska to Australia takes roughly 11 days of continuous flight, covering over 13,000 kilometers through storms, headwinds, and open ocean with zero land beneath it the entire time. Before departure, it does something almost surgical to its own body. It shrinks its digestive organs down to almost nothing, converting the stomach, intestines, and liver into raw fuel. The bird essentially eats its own gut to make room for fat reserves that will power its wings for nearly two weeks straight. The brain doesn’t fully sleep either. Half of it stays active while the other half rests, alternating in shifts mid-flight at altitude over the open Pacific. The godwit is simultaneously unconscious and navigating with magnetic field sensitivity that no human instrument in the 18th century could replicate. What makes this genuinely staggering beyond the physical record is the navigational precision involved. The bird leaves Alaska and arrives in New Zealand with accuracy that would embarrass early GPS systems. It reads Earth’s magnetic field, atmospheric pressure gradients, star positions, and potentially quantum-level compass mechanisms inside its eye that literally let it see magnetic field lines overlaid on its visual field. Evolution spent millions of years building an aerospace navigation system inside a 300 gram animal. We spend billions engineering machines that do what this bird does on instinct, fat reserves, and half a sleeping brain. The longest recorded non-stop flight by a commercial aircraft is around 20 hours. This bird does 11 days. Without a runway.

Fearmongering is a tool politicians have used since the Middle Ages, however it will be a less efficient tool as the more aware and interconnected young people go to the polls 🗳️

The new economy assets don't exist. In 1975, the value of a company was mostly the stuff you could touch. It had factories, machinery, stock and resources. There was a little bit left over that was hard to explain, so they called it "intangible value". Today's companies are almost completely made up of intangible value. These are assets that accountants don't really have a name for - data, algorithms, brand, systems, culture, IP, media, followers, engagement, etc. When our current government systems were created we lived in the industrial age. In this age we had a formula for how value was created: Output (value) = land + labour + capital + enterprise. We created taxation systems for all of these: property tax, income tax, capital gains, corporate tax. In the new "intangible economy" the rules have massively changed. Land - we don't need a physical place to be in business. Businesses are in the digital cloud and can operate from anywhere. Labour - technology has automated 75% of the labour requirement out of the value chain. That labour can be anywhere in the world - in a cheaper place or near a beach in a low tax city. Capital - the amount of money and physical resource required to scale a business has dropped through the floor. EG: Warren Buffet has $180B he doesn't know what to do with. Enterprise - the value of entrepreneurship has gone through the roof because all that matters in business now is the ability to spot opportunities and mobilise resources around a solution. However this can be done from anywhere in the world. SO... Why do we have massive wealth inequality? Why are governments going bust? Why do regular people feel they can't get ahead? Why are governments becoming draconian? Why are governments targeting home owners with high taxes? It's because the rules of the game have changed. We now live in an "intangible economy". This economy values traditional labour 75% less than the industrial system. This economy is nearly impossible to tax the true value creators. This economy doesn't need much capital and so the flow of capital has ground to a halt and is sitting stagnant in the hands of the wealthy. This economy needs tax revenue to run and the property owners are easy targets who can't pick up their assets and move them offshore. Until we recognise how much the game has changed and that we need a new framework for understanding and distributing the fruits of digital productivity, we are going to be in a very mixed up world for a minute.

Microsoft launched here in 1975. Revenue that year was $16,000. Today, it’s $16,000 every 2 seconds.
