A person might have a hamburger for lunch and another for dinner. Half a pound of beef a day.

There might be a town with 50,000 people. That's 10 tons of beef a day. Five cow per ton? 50 full grown cows, every day, butchered and packed.

What about LA with 3.8 million people? 3800 cows a day. 100 truck loads from pasture to slaughterhouse.
Four thousand farm vets catching a calf, every single day.

The scale is nuts. I wouldn't mind beef being a cultural thing you do as a hobby with your friends rather than an expected on-demand commercial staple product.

The scale is actually unbelievable, at least to me, since I have no firsthand experience with ranching or meatpacking. Until I see any proof, I'm just gonna file the scale of meat consumption in my "proof we live in a simulation" folder.

Proof we're in a simulation is Planck/Heisenberg.

Can only do so much compute per clock cycle tick, we're stuck in a 4-dimensional array of long longs.
