My thought on this, is that a lot of humans plan like they're playing a game they expect to end tomorrow. The wealth stuff feels like people don't want to spend money, because they're afraid they'll fall off the leader

Does not seem like its hurting Netflix / Disney all that much. If I had a 100 million subscribers paying me $100/year, I'm pretty sure I'd be crying into my caviar. Admittedly, they're both nonsensically incompeten

I am aware of the occasional purges at some of these companies, and that when the purges happen, often many of the accounts are "found" to be fake. It is still difficult to determine what is "found" vs we need stats show

That's part of what I worry about, because I talk with musicians, and the impression they give me is that they are basically making music to try to get "picked as the winner." IE: We look at what's doing well on the Spot

Your comment got me curious, so I made it into a spreadsheet. There are 265 papers currently. If you're curious, there's a reason it feels overwhelming. Here's a plot of the age of the papers relative to now. Its a bit of a

Generally agree. Had the same thought. However, related to this comment and @fragmede's response, is that wealth is strong correlated in human society with power, influence, celebrity ... and more wealth. People quite literally just
