great insight wrapped in ad hominem douchery

loop


this is an intriguing criticism but assumes a corrupted reputation economy. wouldn't a perfect meritocracy be a reputation based economy?


A meritocracy is a type of government not an economy. Or possibly I don't understand your question.


a meritocracy is a resource allocation system and functionally equivalent to an economy for considering your proposition that reputation based systems lead to bad allocations; i'm questioning that proposition.


you are right and judging from the regressive and reactionary fears this project is generating from the "professionals" the man is onto something.

good luck doc, you have everything it takes to start moving history in the right direction, right now.
