Oh, what a pipedream. If only capitalism worked how it was described in textbooks. It turns out there are much easier lower cost optimizations businesses can perform based on managing perception rather than worrying about pesky concepts like utility.
- woahAcademia 6y agoI never considered Amazon capitalistic given their exploitation of the USPS. I considered them this private company subsidized by taxes.
- AmericanChopper 6y agoYou raise an interesting point. Where I work, most of our public status dashboards update to yellow or red automatically, with only a few failure conditions requiring a manual update. It’s always made me wonder whether we’ll ever get around to implementing capitalism with some manual update only dashboards.
