Very unmeritocratic society if you can just win by inheriting half of 20 billion dollars.

I would love it if there were a part of the internet where a) one person = one account and non-person accounts were somehow labeled. Kind of how south korea does it. But you know, better.

And b) i could block that one person on each platform with one click on all my accounts, including screenshots of their posts.

In real life i know the person talking to me is a unique individual and not one of several duplicate persons bc of physical limitations.

Wishful thinking: we are reaching that point where AI could solve this instead of AI just making the issue worse.

We could call it a cost cutting measure to save the taxpayer billions in unnecessary legal fees and settlements.

> How will he "try that"? He hasn't done anything illegal and, if he does, his own staff and the courts will prevent him from doing it.

Are we talking about convicted felon donald trump or some other guy?

I think, at one point in time, it was also completely legal to break into computer networks because there were no laws against it.

I appreciate the technical achievements here. However, I wonder how long before it’s standard practice to track all peoples movement, not just those suspected of a crime. I know of at least one YouTube channel that is always recording all traffic camera streams in Washington so there must be some State entities doing the same. Back in 2020 there was a twitch channel that would play a 9x9 grid of all the livestream footage from the George Floyd protests. I’m sure an archive of that exists somewhere on a LE server.

Politicians all across the globe know and utilize this concept

Because we are “free” to “choose” who we do business with. Nevermind that many essential services are run by legal cartels.

And Tmobile has more lobbyists than you do. But you, an individual, are also “free” to lobby the government as much as you wish.

Thusly, the system is fair and balanced on paper.

You sound like a stalin era communist. The secret police are spying on you for your own good!

I can think of at least one industry where the price of failure is almost always borne by the users and not the companies. Very closely integrated with tech as well.

I think it’s more reflective of the reality of living in the US than of your company’s selection process. I’m curious what you did after realizing this. Did you pivot away, or create a program designed to be useful for the volunteers? Assuming that the volunteer pool accurately represented the larger group.

“The mob” being the voting citizens of a free and open democratic society, of course.

Interesting point of view/source of internal tension there.

It seems like the sales team went out of their way to try and land a $10k/mo deal. Then when they heard there was a second potential suitor in the mix they got upset and said “well we never wanted your $10k anyways!” and destroyed any chance of reconciliation. Very sour grapes/ no second date on tinder type of reaction.

If there is a TOS issue I’m not listening to a sales pitch on it. You better tell me what the issue is upfront in the first email instead of dicking around with the commission based workers. Like very low level stuff here imo

Yes. Frank reynolds in the popular television show it’s always sunny in Philadelphia lays it out in plain terms on one of the episodes. “In America you’re either the duper or the dupee”. PT Barnum also knew this essential truth about our nation.

This is why you hire a professional instead of trying to save a few bucks outsourcing
