- TeMPOraL 9y agoYeah. "Worse is better" is just philosophy built around understanding of feedback loops (indirectly, through evolutionary processes). It's pretty much fact of the system that is human society. It's true, and it's the default way things work. It should be used, however, as a reminder that we have brains capable of overriding that default, if we can be bothered to use them.
