- HocusLocus 2y agoTLDR: "[Government] regulators are the microcode of the state." Interesting juxtaposition like an avant garde art piece of neon colored plastic carpenter's tools in a bathtub, or a tyrannosaur with backup lights. But you wouldn't reach into the bathtub to start a home project, and if you see the lights and hear beeping better to assume it is a truck. People have been trying to spot waste and corruption in data streams for decades, and too often it's the people who hid the information doing the audit. In this one the analytics are being done real fast and NO effort is being made to 'secretize', 'sanitize' or 'slow walk' the revelations. If the party doing it was the other, it would be 900 words of Nothing To See Here or You Go GuysnGals!
