Sorry this didn't get any traction tonight. The mods have been encouraging people to resubmit stories if they go unnoticed, so you might try posting this again in the morning.
Maybe I missed something, but it looks like a user can only be interested in one thing. Are you supposed to create a new user for every interest?
How does suzie know that arizing cares about Larry Page's broken ankle? Does she know arizing outside of the network, so she knows what he's interested in, or does she only know him from the network?
- drcode 12y agoHacker news is a hard place to get traction these days... I remember shortly after the launch of Hacker News, I had several stories get to the number one slot on the front page like it was no thing... now that would be unfathomable... > but it looks like a user can only be interested in one thing. So it's a thing in crypto do "decompose" a user into multiple accounts in order to protect privacy (see "coin control" etc) Ideally, a social network should work the same way... If you have multiple interests, the system should treat those as totally separate identities. Then it would be YOUR CHOICE whether or not to tie them together in some way. > Are you supposed to create a new user for every interest? Basically! > How does suzie know that arizing cares about Larry Page's broken ankle? Since "arizing" is in the "profitable" column she would probably not know him. Instead, she would read his feed to see what he's about, in order to cater stories to his taste (that is my thinking anyway)
