I'm familiar. I don't get it.
If you end evidence collection at the deadline, you GUARANTEE false resolutions every so often.
Why would a prediction market want a system that spits out predictable bullshit?
In fact, what the hell are you two even talking about? Because the trend of Poly is AGAINST ending evidence collection at deadline 😂 The trend is extending evidence collection to get the correct answer.
Ending evidence at the deadline is an artifact of a much dumber and much worse time.
The Soviet whaling fleet killed 180,000 whales between 1948 and 1973, delivering rotten carcasses that nobody wanted to eat. Soviet citizens had zero demand for whale meat. The ships hunted anyway, fulfilling quotas handed down from central planners who counted tons of dead whale as economic output.
This was bureaucratic box-checking that nearly drove multiple whale species to extinction. Soviet whalers targeted endangered right whales and humpbacks specifically because they were larger, helping them hit tonnage targets faster. The meat rotted on deck during long voyages back to port, where officials dutifully recorded the numbers and sent reports to Moscow declaring another successful harvest.
Central planners measured success in tons harvested, not consumer satisfaction or long-term sustainability. Factory managers got promoted for exceeding whale quotas, regardless of whether anyone actually wanted whale meat (they didn't). The feedback mechanism that normally connects production to human needs had been severed entirely. When bureaucrats replace market prices with administrative targets, you get mass slaughter with zero purpose.
You still see this today every time politicians promise to "create jobs" in industries that lose money year after year. When government agencies measure their success by dollars spent rather than problems solved. When university administrators chase enrollment numbers instead of student outcomes.
Remove the profit motive and price signals, and you get 180,000 dead whales rotting in the sun while commissars celebrate meeting their targets. You don't get rational planning.
Socialism is fundamentally destructive to the environment and inevitably leads to ecological disasters.
@CharlieKir88412 Excellent. *Even if* there were DNA differences that would not mean there would be psychological differences.
And people are minds. Not their skin (legs, hair or whatever else),
@SaraShalvah@matt_barrie@geofflangdale The problem is competition and efficiency. For every way you make it harder for a start up to successfully disrupt the status quo somehow, you make it less likely for the disruption to happen/the start up to succeed.
It's not a coincidence that most innovations come from the US.
@Veigar_v2@drewlevin@Manenkos Pretty sure you are misunderstanding the change. It's only going to stop you from aggroing minions by autoing the minion. You can still aggro by standing in between the two minion waves
@MarkoMatvikov No one actually understand how bad inflation is
It’s likely 11% the m3 aud money supply is increasing by that amount now yoy
The government hides and masks figures very well to keep it lower
There’s no way to fix this unless we become more productive
