Fatter tails on upside outcomes via Internet distribution implies quantity of reps matter more than quality

Quantity of reps going up implies median quality of rep going down, but it also implies improved quality of rep through repeated practice

Where is the free market of human activity going to lead us?

I agree about quantity of reps mattering, but have little faith that most industries or groups that consider themselves meritocracies are actually meritocratic. 

we have a long way to go, crypto and even more so tech rely on credentialism, insular networks + superficial indicators of prestige > talent, contributions

left it open ended bc I genuinely think this logic applies to basically any human endeavor today

but if I had to define it I’d say something like

“any approximately meritocratic industry, social group, or subculture that is influenced by modern technocapitalist incentive structures”
