    Trust scores. Brand new, but the onboarding info suggests Trust Scores reflect how much a post's source "reflects my worldviews"?  I'm not really looking for an echo chamber platform and had assumed these scores would focus more on good faith, or even veracity, as opposed to viewpoint alignment.  I could totally see upvoting something/one I completely disagree with as long as I see them as using logic and rationality to support their good faith views.  Am I misinterpreting?

    Thanks!  I think it's critical though even early to help users understand what lens they should look through when deciding to upvote, or downvote.  Please don't let it become a simple "like" button where the main UpTrust difference is just trying to keep the convo more civil....

    The Relateful Company should embrace more job titles. We’re under-appreciating orange.

    We’ve included the green critiques, like the classic:

    What gets measured gets managed — even when it’s pointless to measure and manage it, and even if it harms the purpose of the organisation to do so - V. F. Ridgway, 1956

    But we need to embrace more healthy competition, striving for excellence, even rankings.

    one way we can do this is to make more liberal use of titles, and brag on people. @Valerie Daniel is the MANAGING DIRECTOR, and we should have her listed as such in emails and things

    What else is healthy orange and how can we transclude it?
    What do we already do that is already healthy orange?

    Not sure about the pay tiers, but we have some of that already in level up — we have three pay tier for 1-1-1, 1-1, and coaching, and not everyone is eligible for each one. so believability scores is basically proto-uptrust algorithm for specific relateful skills....

    Trump, Stargate, and Vaccines for Cancer. I'm cringing reading articles and seeing videos showing Trump, Sam Altman, and Larry Ellison speaking about using A.I. to develop vaccines for cancer.

    I have something I call "The Farmer's Market rule." I spoke about this on the Vendy podcast with Jordan. It is a metaphor for working with coaches, facilitators, and wellbeing practitioners.

    When I go to the farmers market, I don't just look at the food people are selling.. I also look at the people selling the food.

    I ask myself, "Do I want to look like this person who is selling me this food?"

    I do the same for facilitators, trainers, and Wellbeing practitioners: "Does this person live in a way I want to embody more fully in my life?"

    I would not go to Altman, Trump, or Ellison for Wellbeing guidance + wisdom. Maybe for advice and wisdom in other domains and themes.

    We really need leaders who are embodying Wellbeing to lead our planetary and national wellbeing initiatives. I cringe when I see people who I judge as disembodied pioneering these explorations. It feels like a recipe for disaster with the possibility to cause a lot of harm to a lot of people.

    You're correct that the trust tracks different groups of people rating expertise differently. there are two things we haven't fully released yet that address trust bubble fragmentation: an algorithmic way of identifying the people you most trust who have a different view from you...
