While they sound fantastic neither part or them combined would qualify as small in any measure.

> I sometimes wonder how much illiteracy ... Instagram and tiktok ... themselves talking to the camera. I bet it's near 0%. That looks more like a lack of enjoyment of reading if anything.

That sounds like secret sauce that nascent social networks would keep close to their chest... if it worked.

This is a non-trivial problem. > Without admins or trusted moderators. There is a reason those eventually get folded in. My arm chair take would be to be open to a solution and try lots of things, let the best bubble up to the top.

Thievery doesn't depend on an economic system or a political system, it's truly agnostic. Agnostic to the point that we can consider it basically parasitism. And parasitism is only slightly younger than life its self.

Haven't used it in production. I've seen some good stuff come out of it and heard its many praises. It seems like its users and devs really care about making a good bit of vfx software. Unkindly, it looks like a kludged together u

I work in VFX and with the world premier bit of special effects software: Side FX's Houdini. Sure, it's a bit old and has a little bit of ui cruft (they have to get less technical users in). But overall it's a treat to work w

What's your take on what we should do to thwart what can be thwarted?

Not to insult either discipline, but I bet the crossover of trained anthropologists and trained journalists is smaller than either one on their own.

Yes, but it would cut down on the magnitude of promoted views. As it is now it's free. A motivated party can easily generate a seemingly honest and true and good faith crowd of thousands with some code and a bit of creativity. With ver

What I think should be done: Less free stuff. Free online stuff does not feed quality. Money is the tie that binds. And free stuff binds us to advertisers. Youtube, twitter, facebook, etc, all go to paid tiers and registered accounts. Eradi

Interesting idea. Nothing to stop people being paid to voice another person's or company opinion though.

I agree with your main point. > People need to be trained But, hmmm, I don't think a call for education is a solution. That's basically whack-a-mole. Stupid people are born every minute, there's no stopping stupid. Better

According to a loose interpretation of Plato in The republic referencing the story of The Ring of Gyges anonymity basically ruins people. IMHO we'd need what we can't easily have, single-confirmed-identity-accounts for everyone. I
