also, I'll know it when i see it is the same as saying I'll know it when i get a hit of dopamine -which was my substituted answer.
Edit; can't respond so will here..

But it does, it just does it in a way you approve of, which i think is fine, except when you think others should value what you value..
- Wowfunhappy 7y agoIt absolutely is subjective. Two people may reasonably come to different conclusions on whether a given product is exploitive, particularly along the edges. Such is life. That doesn't make the analysis useless. Dopamine is fine, it just isn't enough by itself. Playing a slot machine for days on end feels crappy in hindsight, even for the addicts who can't stop themselves from continuing to play. I'm concerned about how much of modern life is effectively becoming a normalized slot machine. If you want to call experiencing stories, learning new skills, and forging new connections "long term dopamine", fine, maybe that's what it is. However, it doesn't take advantage of this very specific slot machine bug in our minds in order to become compulsive.
