Hm. Maybe you're right. Maybe I've been *told* I'm anti-social and simply been a victim of those over-socialized people who don't show much depth in social contexts. Regardless, the topical question I raised still stands: For those poor sailors who *feel* demeaned by the algorithmic context, how *quickly* can/do they transition into and out of the modes?
Dave raised this question implicitly by arguing that there are at least 2 modes: training as a cog in the machine but performing as a dynamic individual. The question is how often, how fast, etc these mode-switches happen. On 1/15/19 11:09 AM, Marcus Daniels wrote: > If you were really antisocial, you wouldn't care how you seem.
