How do people even cope with that? I feel like dying when it gets over ~23 °C

Oh, I misunderstood. I thougth that the pic was from the deprogram sub. Thats why I went there and looked it up, because it would be very surprising to see that su censoring something like this.
Edit: It even says r/pics on the top of the screenshot, either I'm blind or I already forgot the layout of stormfront (or both)
I'm currently sitting behind closed ports and cannot find any peers when I try to torrent it. I'll try again at home tomorrow 
~~To be fair, that post in particular seems to have been locked because it is a repost. This post is older and has quite a bit of engagement. While a quick search in the popular subs reveals that this story seems to be surpressed there, it is not true for r/TheDeprogram. Even if that sub has some problems, this story is none of them.~~
The screenshot was posted to r/TheDeprogram, it wasn't taken there, I'm dumb.
Paul Cockshott also has a Youtube Channel where he talks about such things. I haven't read the book either, but doing economic planning with Neural Networks sounds a little adventurous, because generally it is hard to reason about it's decision processes. And having a plan that you can't explain is risky at best.
Cockshott also has done some work with Thomas Härdin about economic planning with Linear Programming [LP] and Mixed Integer Linear Programming [MILP]. This also slots in nicely with your original question. As @[email protected] has said, Databases are only part of the solution here. Economic Planning is an optimization problem and you need methods (like LP) to solve it. For more complex problems (like economic planning) you will need an understanding in linear algebra and matrices, here is a nice short (and cringe) introduction to LP that I found in some math discord a while back:
But note that they use a graphical approach to solve the problem, of course there are also numeric approaches to solve an LP problem.
