Hooray! I finally stumbled on this once more.
Nanotechnology - Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies
"Dedicated to helping ensure that as nanotechnologies advance, possible risks are minimized, public and consumer engagement remains strong, and potential new benefits are realized."
Dreams of Autarky
Genie nanotech, space colonies, Turing-test A.I., a local singularity, crypto credentials, and private law are all dreams of a future where some parts of the world economy and society have an unusually low level of dependence on the rest of the world. But
