I think it's a cool idea, and could be useful. In the best case it would be like a crowdsourced customer support, where the users will help each other. And a way to make the product more engaging.

Biggest doubt for me is that, I think this would require a lot of moderation, since surely there will be people advertising something, or recommending competitors. Or people impersonating as customer support agents and scamming your users

> Hard to imagine how to solve it without surveillance.

Really? Hopefully not

How about giving support for people who need it? How about giving teens options to do something else than roam the streets and gang up? How about giving support to stop generational drug use? How about showing these kids that they have a brighter future ahead if they choose to act on it? How about figuring out how to fix the massive polarisation of opinions, beliefs, income, opportunities etc.?

> Maybe the lure of several billion is too much to resist.

Well yes seems obvious, unless they already had that kind of money. It's easy to say that from the sidelines, since I assume you haven't turned away several billion of dollars

Keep in mind that the chip is only the chip. You will also need casing and an electricity source, so won't be as thin as it might look at first

Same in Finland, just not in the Internet (except for the highest earners' tax returns), you can call by phone or physically visit the tax office to get anyone's tax return

Seems really unlikely, or you are super small company/team, or that you just don't know them that well

Is the "algorithm" that simple tree at the end? Really confusing

Well he worked on it for 4 years (for fun?), so I'm not sure what you mean by walk away with a PhD. To me it seems like he has earned it, and even if he doesn't get one he obviously is able to

I can relate to this, have had similar periods as well. It always seems to get better just to get worse again.

Haven't figured out the cause either, maybe it's some mild burnout? Maybe it's depression? Maybe it's some kind of mild bipolar disorder with quick cycles? Maybe it's just who I am? Maybe it's something I do/don't do, something I eat? Maybe it's the company changing?

I don't know so many possible explanations I guess

Hmm, so are you saying that Twitter API used to render these shows different info than the Twitter UI at twitter.com?

I thought "AirCover" was already the standard? Also this still doesn't address the issue that host can cancel your stay at any time and then you are left without any kind of accommodation in the middle of nowhere or unknown area
