Basically, a basic income would solve this since people are doing it because they need money to survive. Sometimes I think that money is corrupting everything and in the future it will be seen as an aberration. Hard to tell. EDIT: It's

For a simple viz of graph data, I'd would use linkurious.js[0] (it's a very active fork of sigma.js) Disclaimer: I work on it ;) [0]: https://github.com/Linkurious/linkurious.js/

Sorry for sidetracking but: I'm really interrested in how the "NearBy" feature works. Anyone knows how to find the source code ?

I thought of a simple solution to the verifiability problem, what do you think ? - When voting, each voter receive a receipt with a random number assigned to his vote - All the votes are published with the random numbers alongside them - Ea
