Is there a code for development, certain things you must do to develop and sustain a system, an economic area, for instance? And if there is a code, what does it look like? Is there an algorithm for it? And if there isn’t any, what should that code look like? What are the components of that code?
In understand that there are different systems: biological, technical, and social systems. I do want to focus here on economic systems as part of social systems.
But maybe there are parts of other systems that can help put together the code for economic systems.
Yes, I am very curious indeed whether there is a code for development or an algorithm for development. Alle ideas an suggestions are welcome.
Nothing can raise a country’s productivity except technology, and technology is the final product of a complex of sciences (including philosophy), each of them kept alive and moving by the achievements of a few independent minds. In order for a thing to become a good, three conditions must be fulfilled. Not only must it satisfy a human need, but also one must know that it satisfies one’s need, and one must have disposal over it. Economic growth” means the rise of an economy’s productivity, due to the discovery of new products, new techniques, which means: due to the achievements of men’s productive ability.

Conclusion:
The code for development is a free mind,
resulting in free entreprepreneurial activity.
Stephen I. Ternyik Dear Stephen, thanks for your answer.
You mention three conditions to be fulfilled for a 'thing' to become a "good" (RD: a product or a service):
a. being able to satisfy a human need
b. human awareness that it ('the thing') satisfies one's need
c. having disposal of that 'thing' (product or service).
And indeed, technology is the driver of development, because it is able to raise productivity. But the economy is more than raising productivity, it is also about distribution, the willingness to pay the price even if it satisfies one's need.
And in your explanation you took the economic route for explanation of the code for development. Are there other explanations as a code for development? Are there stages?
And are there human aspects in the development of ecocomic systems? Yes entrepreneurship is importent, as is technology. But do they define the code for development? Or are they the sole aspects of the code or are there other aspects that are part of the code?
And what do you understand to be the code?
Rudi Darson Dear Rudi,
F. Hayek opined: The curious task of economics is to demonstrate to men how little they really know about what they imagine they can design.
Human development has four essential pillars: equality, sustainability, productivity and empowerment. It regards economic growth as essential but emphasizes the need to pay attention to its quality and distribution, analyses at length its link with human lives and questions its long-term sustainability.
Stages? Yes, human development comes in stages, i.e. lifespan development.
Economic systems? Are man-made stages of human development via labor and natural resources=result=capital formation.
The general code or DNA of development?
Yes. Life has a definite direction !!!
While any evolution in human affairs requires long-term processes,
reversions can take place in the twinkling of an eye.
Why, for example, should a group of simple, stable compounds of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), and nitrogen (N), 'struggle' for billions of years to organize themselves into a professor of economics? What's the motive? If we leave a economics professor out on a rock in the sun long enough the forces of nature will convert him into simple compounds of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus, and small amounts of other minerals. It's a one-way reaction ! Then why can nature reverse processes in the twinkling of eye ?
The field of science, by its very definition, is rooted in the “effect” portion of our universe. The Academic Press Dictionary of Science and Technology lists science as “the systematic observation of natural events and conditions in order to discover facts about them and to formulate laws and principles on these facts.”
Perhaps this definition in itself can help us understand why scientific fact doesn’t mean that we necessarily know anything. The word “observation” is our first clue, a blatant pointer to the truth that scientists can really only study the effects and results, not the causes; the descriptions, rather than the true hows and whys.
The Programmer of the Universe doesn’t seem to be readily available to ask.
Talking to the Programmer is essential.
Deciphering Nature's Code means to accept that the code was carefully and precisely executed by a force greater than us.
We are here merely to decipher the code, which has been intricately inlaid into nature and has existed long before man.
