If you don't know the soviets were theorizing about an infrastructure plan to build a network across the USSR to basically plan their economy for them. Ambitious as fuck, probably would have failed, and eventually got sunk by boomers anyway.

I was wondering if it would work now though. Like say after the revolution we put our best stem lords and ladies on the task of like combining all the user data Google and the NSA was collecting into useful data for addressing peoples real needs.

Some ass hole was talking about "the knowledge problem" and I was wondering if it would be technologically feasible to easily solve this precieved failure of the USSR with technology we have today. I don't know much about databases or statistics though.
