Some ideas:

1. Profile quality (and honesty) varies wildly. Peacock and dishonest profiles dominate.

2. There is no Hobsons choice mechanism to force rotation among matches.

3. There are no incentives to respond or follow up.

4. Fake profiles benefit the platform but you have a bootstrap problem if you have no users. Plausible AI fakes will make this worse

5. There is no web of trust- if someone meets someone they could assert trust even at a low level. If I trust anyone in their web this would vet against fake profiles.

I could go on...

You may be literally correct, but the purchase of an ad company makes that literal assumption likely wrong.

The ambiguous nature of the changes favor some shady self dealing. Sorry.

Exactly, which is why buying a homeless drug addict a coffee and a sandwich means he can shift that money into drugs.

And why "humanitarian aid" to countries at war allows budgets to be shifted to weapons instead of food and medical supplies.

Sometimes you just can't do the seemingly obvious "right thing"

You may just end up with the "tipped cashier" effect where wages are driven down on rationale that they will be tipped.

Now if you buy a self serve coffee in a paper cup the cashier whose sole job is to take your money, expects a tip because their wages are shite.

Isn't this the "New York keeping it real" 'tude they are so proud of?

Not being flippant, I'm serious. That's what I've heard.

In peesonal experience, I found New Yorkers to be far friendlier than 99% of Bay Area baristas, so there's that.

VERY accurate haha (also why I'm still single)

No librewolf for android. Any suggestions O wise ones?

Waterfox, which some prefer over LibreWolf, seems to have an Android app. Haven't tried either of these alternatives on any platform though.

Complacency is not just feeling good, but doing so while ignoring a risk.

You can feel good about addressing risks, the opposite of complacency.

Brendan Gregg's USE method is for performance troubleshooting but could work in any situation (broken is just the worst performance, right?)

Damn. How did they write code before 1992?

We did have usenet in the 80s and gopher in the 90s. But yes, in those days it was that mythical "paper" stuff (or were we still using papyrus? I forget)

Where are the low level CEOs vs high level CEOs?

I'll bet AI could do their jobs right now.

Can SOMEONE please write AI software to replace these people?

Management consultants. Main attributes are confidence and ability to generate content. No need to stick around to see it through.

It's the opposite. An LLM is better at CEO stuff than working code. A good developer + LLM instead of CEO can succeed. A good CEO + LLM instead of developer cannot succeed. (For a tech company)

Considering that there are chickens who outperform stockbrokers, no.

Is that a fact? I mean, see the linked article; even the company whose whole business model lies in convincing people that that _is_ a fact is kinda saying “yeah, perhaps not”, with vague promises of jam tomorrow.
