In my opinion we need to elevate doctors and invest heavily into more nurse practitioners and the like. I don't think you need to see a doctor all the time, for procedures or surgery yes, or if you need someone to actually investigate something.

But there is no point in pretending doctors are going to surge, the current administration is trying to make being a doctor harder, not easier. Doctors also avoid certain fields because it doesn't pay enough. The supply is also artificially restricted. It's a system so fucked that it's better to ignore it and pump out PRNs

Once again, I think your analysis is an oversimplification. (Also, staring with "once again" is so condescending it makes my skin crawl)

Sure, sure, except for this minor issue that the argument I was responding to didn't mention revenue, they talked about the state of the internet. So why again are you responding to my counter with a straw man?

It definitely tripped my "self-important bullshit author" detector, which doesn't happen to be a very useful heuristic since it requires me to read the whole article.

But anyway, the examples used are not in any way like another. The "futurist" in particular fundamentally lacked the "they do things well and then get sloppy" which leads me to believe the author has a particular axe to grind about the topic of tech progress.

For a lot of the other examples, the entire point is that the person knows they are being sloppy, they know they're letting issues slip through the cracks. If you know you're doing a bad thing, what use is the analogy to a heuristic? It's not a heuristic to be sloppy, it's just being sloppy.

There are plenty of blogs, plenty of obvious low quality spam to block, plenty of features to enable allowlist and blocklists. To think for a second that the Google search experience couldn't be made significantly better at the snap of a finger by Google is to live in a fantasy world.
