software/rimworld

a note before we begin: the correct term for rimworld amongst those "in the know" is "rimmy" hence when the rimworld cravings hit, the people in the vicinity shall hear "papa needs some rimmy"

the "unfolding box" growth strategy

Tynan Sylvester's Rimworld is a recapitulation of a tendency among those in The West to entertain the possibilities and consider the dynamics of economy, tenure, momentum, and opportunity, particularly through the vehicle of the Robinson Crusoe survival story.

Life requires specific procedures. Those procedures must be identified and performed to achieve life. The only alternative is DEATH.

Unemployment causes poverty. Employment creates prosperity.

Capital does not create jobs, but rather, jobs create capital.

The less you work, the less will be your means.

The more you work, the more your capital, and the greater results of labor.

I. Begin with kitchen.

make a fire. secure food. sufficient food control is CRITICAL to for a stable situation and maintaining life. consider professional chef kitchen standards of cleanliness and military foodstuff materiel inventory management. your kitchen, your rules. let the ingredients be the hero, not the chef. take all your frustration out on the food.

II. Centralized kitchen.

think long term storage. every instrument is best when intended for one and not for many uses. nature makes nothing in vain. man perfected is the best of animals, but when separated from law and justice he is the worst of all.

III. Expand sidewards for optimized space efficiency.

expand long term storage until there is a surplus. the amount of property needed for a good life is not unlimited. a possession is an instrument for maintaining life.

IV. Some zones expand, other zones added.

begin specialization. soul is the master, body the slave. superior power is only found where there is superior excellence of some kind, so power seems to imply virtue.

V. Further specialization.

start thinking about quality of life / comforts. abolish distracting entertainment, filth, and perversion. absolve debt. establish classical reasoning. everything can be made into something better. prohibit long-term interest-bearing loans.

VI. MANIFEST DESTINY

expand until you leave the planet for somewhere new. make the most with what you've got. choose freewill. keep the vision.

trying to survive naked brutality in the tundra. built a shack around a steam geyser. simultaneously suffering from hypothermia and heatstroke.
