Video games explain the supply chain crisis

Описание: THE SUPPLY CHAIN. It got majorly screwed up during recent events, but what if we could fix it! What if we could fix it by making it more efficient, more comprehensive, more... logistical!? What if the supply chain could be more like a video game? What if ... it already is? Games like Satisfactory, Factorio, Infinifactory... they're all about creating supply chains, gathering resources and moving them from step to step in a massive system, resulting in the creation of capital, or simply the creation of a bigger system. Our real-life supply chain is already more like these games than you might expect. Polygon's Clayton Ashley unleashes all his logistical abilities to explain how this happened and why.
