Decentralized Planned Economy

I don't get it either.

In any case, Cybersyn wasn't an attempt at "anarchy". AFAIK it's the only decentralized planned attempt, but I'm sure there are others.

This is becoming a meme, isn't it? I have seen several threads about this these past couple of weeks.

Anyway, the earliest ideas about what we're calling "decentralized planning" were with the early cyberneticians. They had an inkling of government support during the Thaw, but lost it even before Krushchev was out. I have the romantic notion that "decentralized planning" would have led to the much dreamed-of socialism with a human face, but we will never know.

I have several books primed to read about it, but I never get started because I'm a master at procrastination. If you want to get a head start on me: From Newspeak to Cyberspeak: A History of Soviet Cybernetics, "The Cybernetics Scare and the Origins of the Internet", "InterNyet: why the Soviet Union did not build a nationwide computer network", "From Cybernetics to Cyber Networks", maybe a couple more that I'm missing now. There's also Red Plenty in fiction, it's full of that sanctimonious bullshit about how Bolsheviks were amoral intellectuals and apostles of violence and all that crap, but it's a great read.

Related to it, Soviets also built the only electronic ternary computers. The factory assigned to build them hated them because they were too cost-efficient and cheap. Apparently ternary computers have significant advantages, but I can't tell which they are because material about the topic in English is close to zero.

Computers are goddamn scabs

You can have decentralized planning but centrally coordinated production.

Ludd tried to warn us, but no one listened.

Unless you are Hoxa fearing some electromagnetic bombs this step seems like unnecessary bureaucracy. Just replace them with a server which will accept the orders directly from people.

Computers can malfunction.

not if you decentralize the network correctly.
Sure, if there would be one, gigantic state-owned central server which would process every single thing, there would be high chance of malfunction.
But if you decentralize it bitcoin-style, there would be no problem if a few computers malfunction, the rest will continue as if nothing happened. This would mean, in oversimplified form, that every person have at home a little bit of government - computer(s) which would hold information about production and needs, maybe more, based on decisions of central state committee.

No ancom talks about money in an anarchist society. Collectivists and syndicalists to an extent either directly (for some of the former ) or indirectly through labor vouchers (for either case, usually as a temporary measure for syndicalists), but not straight ancoms. Read a fucking book.

It's more that it prevented cities from starving and essential production from halting while the strike is underway. That's a fairly equitable way to permit the workers to strike while not endangering the health and livelihood of large swaths of uninvolved people.

Still less so than human operators, and as put it, that problem diminishes on the larger economic scale if the network in question is decentralized.
