You seem to be suggesting that companies should be allowed to trick us so long as there is some conceivable amount of work we can do individually to uncover the trick. But because society exists for people and not companies, most of us prefer laws that stop companies from tricking us in the first place.
- seneca 11mo agoAdvertising or not advertising jobs to people is not "tricking" them. This is a childish argument.

- hunterpayne 11mo agoThe reason we think their proofs are correct is that other mathematicians without incentives say they are correct. Also, they show their work. By your logic, we should believe everything any salesperson says.
- ivan_gammel 11mo agoNo, we should not believe everything that a salesperson says. I just demonstrated that „incentive“ argument does not make sense. It’s false generalization.
- rpdillon 11mo agoI don't understand where there's a trick. Why is this not as simple as going to a job board and searching for the job that you want?
