If they prepared, why wouldn't they be hired? Unless there is rampant ageism.

Is it actually an IQ test? Can you practice for an iq test like you can for an interview? I don't see it being that difficult to just grind on leetcode enough to snag a FAANG job.

Hypothetically, if people just got off their devices, wouldn't this entire digital arms race disappear? No phones. Not even computers except the bare necessity use.

I love the idea of billionaires sitting together thinking they are geniuses, ensuring the demise of the entire world with their buffoonery.

Is the rat aware he's being used for a scientific experiment for human entertainment and a stepping stone to the mass enslavement of other species?

Yeah. The very rich intrigue me. I wonder what they think, where they go, what they eat, and what they watch. Can't be the same shit we got.

I think for the consumer who is willing to put in the effort, it's not hard to find the true artists. Sometimes they may be on the billboard 100, but chances are most of them are not. There's a rabbit hole of art to consume and pontificate over. I don't think the tragedy is that more people aren't aware of great artists. I think the real tragedy is that even if they were aware of it, they wouldn't give a damn.

Perhaps a solution should be engineered for that consumer who is looking, and that would be an art to avoid the mainstream bloat that would come with producing a mechanism like that.

I don't think people stealing would stop an artist from creating art. I think for people who view it as an ends to a mean, and make a living, it might make them seek other means of employment. But for the idealistic morons out there who create for the sake of creating, this wouldn't stop them in the least bit.
