No that is circular reasoning. What is the price of a good when supply and demand are in equilibrium?
The value described in the LTV is the equilibrium price, it’s not exact to real world prices because supply and demand are not exactly equal.

It’s the equilibrium price.
What is your preferred alternative theory of equilibrium price?

Prices track labor inputs extremely closely, using the LTV yields a 0.90+ correlation coefficient to real world prices.
Mainstream economics doesn’t even have a non-tautological theory of equilibrium price.
So what “everything else” are you referring to?

No, they do, with a 0.90+ correlation coefficient.

I think commentators here are missing what is really exciting about this. Back in the 70s it was impossible to calculate all the labour inputs to product, so socialist economies had to refer to capitalist economy pricing. This doomed Cybersyn and any other attempt to use the LTV to work backwards.
That problem is now solved.

Still, the value chain is what drives innovation. We should cheer efforts to clothe and feed ourselves that don’t rely on near slave labour sweatshops.

You mean letting U.S. citizens see the flour massacre video on a platform where the security state can’t ban it.
This bill languished for years until that happened.

Combining this tool with downsampling would allow you to run isomorphic workloads on smaller nodes and thereby reveal the yield curve.

The biggest issue with the Figma article was they did not discuss partitioning the tables before they sharded them.

There’s another way to look at this - as the beginning of the construction of the Data Mesh: https://martinfowler.com/articles/data-mesh-principles.html
This can be seen as a “shift left” in data capabilities. The rise of Data Products ultimately democratizes access to data.
