You can't just handwave assume a mechanism that games a real time system. Your 3rd paragraph explains how the current system adds another layer for gaming. Management can't predict what real time traders want to see, they can predict that less earnings this quarter are better than more earnings next. Your "balance" creates the problem in the first place.
Companies can already make press releases whenever they want yet non fraudulent ones fail to move the market in a predicable way. If someone is committing fraud I want to know about it instantly not in 3 or 6 months. This is just a gimme to Elon's scam empire from an organization he "has no respect for".
Wouldn't desire to learn a language like go or c show they want to be a software engineer, while desire to learn a functional language (unless they learned it from djisktra) show that they don't care. Some functional languges (lisp) are designed for easy throwaway code, while some like haskell are for proving correctness. You can't know just from the fact that someone uses a functional language that they are a rockstar. In reality they probably just started with it cause someone told them to. IMO the false premise is that most first learns with some language js/c then they learn a functional language later.
Anyway I'd be very skeptical of a unix dev who doesn't use c, just like I'd be skeptical of a webdev who doesn't use javascript/typescript. In part due to the reasons laid out in the article, but also that there is a big difference between a polyglot and a native, a polyglot may be able to make themselves understood, but a native understanding the culture, won't waste time designing something others in the culture have no context to understand, since they don't. First they would do research starting from a cultural touchstone
We live in a corporate culture where small shops have been psyoped by big tech to throw away their senior devs. Losing a senior is a tragedy that regularly blocks progress for years, this practice has become so normalized that nobody noticed the wider software industry has been stagnate for 2 decades. (part of that psyop were those tiktok ads)
The value of data increases year on year, even old data, but old data is worth much less than new. But for hyperscalers we've cost the threshold, now any data at all is worth more than storage space, and the profits are too much to ignore.
It's not just targeted advertising, though you can open youtube kids/instagram/tiktok and see plenty of that and age brackets happen to perfectly align with leaked metas' advertising brackets. (5-10, 10-12) (group A), 13-15 (group B), 16-17 (group C), 18-24, 24-30.
I think it's largely driven by the increasing computing power
To me the solution seems simple, but I have no idea how to implement it in a classroom/uni environment.
Students should be building software hands on, yes they should use AI, but there shouldn't be an end state beyond like "6 hours of work" or however long is reasonable in their schedule. The instructor should push them to build more features, or add constraints that obsolete most of their work.
Eventually there will be spots in the code that only the student and professor understands, in some limited instances the professor can explain what some generated code does.
Alternatively students can use generated code, but they have to provide a correctness proof and most of the class is based on studying proofs. Depends if it's a more CS/SE or Software Industry focused group of students and their math background
Not acknowledging a problem doesn't make it go away. Isolating people decreases the problem, but alienates them from the wider economy. I'd rather live in a world with open, regulated [0] , assassination markets even if that increases the amount of money behind assassinations.
Of course I'd rather live in a world with no muder and death, but seriously, grow up.
[0]the value of a human life is $xM + $yM for their occupations, so now payout for hits below that amount
Name one (1) human activity in your opinion that isn't bad for society
People taking care of cats have done large damage to bird populations and many people are infected with pathogens carried by cats. How many people are killed by dogs each year? Should we ban caring for animals too? There are no 0 harm activities.
Reasonably splitting activities up into subcategories and regulating those makes way more sense. Your $100 attitude is just a shitty, less enforceable and more harmful way to regulate it. Calling the behavior of a system "shameful" is a total copout. You know what else creates negative externalities? (besides everything) DEBT! Why not ban debt, besides a token $100, I'm sure states will function just fine!
Do you have a religion that works on systems/corporations/states? If so I'd love to see it, cause the past 2000 years has been dogshit failure after pathetic failure
Yes famous libertine Adam Smith, up there with Marquis de Sade and Ami Perrin
Your logical conclusion is a slippery slope. Lets follow your argument to it's logical conclusion, humans are evil therefore, regulate all their actions, imprison them, kill all humans OMG you are sooo evil I'm absolutely shook. How could you!
Why ought we take your misunderstandings to the"ir natural" extreme?
I don't think "regulate all their actions, imprison them, kill all humans" is the logical conclusion of "prediction markets incentivize antisocial behavior".
