A rather old ted talk now, it goes into software being released like Unity3d which many games are made has settings which are set by the developer's of said games which they do not know the reason's for.
This is compared to the Lycurgus Cup (that changes color depending upon the hot/cold of the contents poured in)...which used purposely made "nano" particles that behave in a character that wouldn't be discovered for another 1 to 2 millennia afterwards.
The ted talk's premise is that rome fell due to over complexity. That at the time just before the collapse the greatest feats of technology where being made like the Lycurgus Cup, then nothing for 2 millennia. He expresses that software will collapse because of the similar tool chain ecosystem of software has the same problems that Rome had.
That software will collapse and the ecosystem to support the software afterwards will not be available due to a cascade of tool collapses.

The image I remember was a huge naked "negro" chasing women in europe...the image was grainy...
I guess the original is a play of the "camera" and it's toy dogs.

Russia and China are making a "Civilization State" Which essentially
means it doesn't need outside trade. That it is a self sustaining Colony.
A Colony that breaks its plow would essentially die in 1-2 winters if the people
on the Colony didn't know how to make and repair all the equipment they needed
to run all the essential activities in the Colony.
This was the Jamestown Colony in Virginia, 1607. The first self sustaining population
in America.
The Jamestown Colony went from a "Garden" population which could have starved in any
given winter into a permanent "settlement" with the means to handle any winter
hardship/condition and expand it's territory.
If the Jamestown Colony have had had leverage against it from the prior inhabitants it
could not have survived except as a garden population against a great Colony or Settlement.
We are going to see Russia and China survive as the Jamestown Colony survived without
the leverage from other "Colonies"
Energy too cheap to meter...collapse of traditional banking. And, the leverage of
high cost energy and high cost manufacturing.
Step 1:
Fusion tech is set to unlock near-limitless ultra-deep geothermal energy
https://newatlas.com/energy/quaise-deep-geothermal-millimeter-wave-drill/
They believe they can dig a well 12miles deep (or 5-20km) to reach 500 deg Celsius...
to produce super-critical steam to re-power coal powered steam generators.
Using "the" gyrotron, and millimeter-wave energy beams (able to produce the
same temperatures that are in fusion reactors) to build a well 12 miles
deep.
Step 2:
Also, China has developed their 1st generation of Thorium Reactor (A waterless
nuclear reactor.) That will evolve into a 4th and 5th generation that will be
a pluggable utility in there advanced electrical High Frequency Transmission Lines.
China and Russia as well as SpaceX will mine the Kuiper belt for resources using
Photon Thermal Drive...(like the thorium reactor...but will liquify a metal to
super heat hydrogen for thrust)
NEW!! Photon Thermal Drive!! Mars in 45 days! Jupiter in one year!
