You also have something on the scale of pounds of e coli in you. It’s just you never hear about it except for illnesses.
I wish the news included like 10 percent segments of random facts. Maybe biased towards relevant current events but not entirely so. Like I want to see a 90 second documentary about ghengis khan, a how it’s made segment, and the etymology of the word bubble.
All of my feeds are way too focused, there’s not enough discovery. And the “news” is hot garbage. Same problem with Amazon, oh you just bought a printer? Here are fifty more just in case.
I don’t know if this is driven by real metrics or just bad algorithms. I want fewer suggestions within 0.2 sigma of what i liked before and more suggestions 1 or 2 sigma away. And for the love of all things holy if you’ve shown me the same thing fifty times, maybe set that aside and try something else.
I've been feeling particularly alienated by the algorithm sludge recently. I just don't feel comfortable being a part of this big automated closed knowledge/influence loop but it's pretty hard to avoid.
Sometimes I dont click youtube video I am a little bit interested in for the sole reason of knowing I will have to be marking "not interested" on associated reccomendations over next few days.
Its insane I have to click non-interested on 50 skiing vids instead of just telling it "I dont want skiing vids on my feed"
