Cool post. Humans have been competing for resources forever.
The number of times people say they are against resource extraction, but yet they write on their computers filled with gold and rare earths is amazing. Even that is a conflict. But people do not think about that aspect of technology. You cannot build a server or a house, or a car without mined materials... economics keep things somewhat in check.
Great discussion and article...
PS. Thanks for bringing up this cool topic and important conversation! Keep up the awesome posts!!!
