This morning, I had a very new looking 10,000 yen bill at the conbini auto-register that wouldn't go into the register. Looked at it, didn't seem to be folded or missing a corner, which often causes bill insertion into machines to fail. Tried again, wouldn't go in. Had to use another bill. <Commercial> If only we went cashless and installed the app, I wouldn't have to deal with bill and coin recognition failing anymore! What a wonderful, convenient world! </Commercial> Just kidding. There'd be all the familiar glitches, errors, holdups and overreaches of excessive bureaucracy + automation and the malice and incompetence behind it. Edit: decided to look up "Malice and Incompetence" to see if anyone else has struck on the idea that Hanlon's razor is a heuristic which overfits us towards thinking malice and incompetence are mutually exclusive. Giving credit to this blogger for coining this word "malcompetence: incompetence magnified by malevolent intent." https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2014/07/malice_incompetence_or_malcompetence.html https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2014/07/malice_incompet...
