I wonder if this is just a straight-up "bad idea"
I think we've all read about ‘The Stanford Prison Experiment’ and how that ended.
Maybe something useful will come out of it and I am definitely in support of thinking outside of the box. But there are probably some major downsides to this...
- arbitrage 6y agoThe Stanford Prison Experiment, while certainly titillating, suffered from extreme reproducibility issues. It was also wildly unethical, and any conclusions drawn from it are not scientifically sound in any meaningful sense.
- nibbleshift 6y agoI wonder if these techno-governments will have similar reproducibility issues.
- TheWellerman 6y agoRight! I get it that Nevada is struggling economically, but could they be making a rash decision? It's kind of hard to undue a town once it's been established.
