there are a lot of people who have never worked on moderation tools "at scale" and then turn it into an identity thing. anyone can be the target of a brigading raid, anyone can be the target of a ddos attack, anyone can get swatted.

I'm actually really hype for the bubble popping and crashing the financial system because I think in the current political environment we'll get helicopter money instead of bailouts
which would crash real estate values
which I am very much in favor of

it wouldn't surprise me at all if it was faster than redis
