If you’ve ever interacted with drug dealers and/or pimps, you know people are frequently this sleazy on a daily basis. People devise schemes to sell heroin to miserable people, and hook prostitutes on it so that they’ll turn tricks in exchange for doses, operating brothels out of hotels.

What. Video poker and slot machines are the limits of this kind of business model?

Maybe what’s really going in the comments here, is forum sliding and engineered flak.

The ones I have interacted with were nothing like you say here. There was this one that came from another city one time that was probably like that, but he did not last long in this city. I suppose the environment they have to work in has various factors they may make more of them do certain things in certain ways? Or perhaps you just trying to infer some kind of thing from pop movie culture or something?

I hate to see others read something absolutist like that and assume it's true, or mostly true more often then not, which I don't believe is true, even if it is some times.

Unless of course you are talking about the reps from the big pharma companies - then I might side with it's more true then less true.

Isn't the gamification of feeds in fbook and instagram basically this - does that make the ux designers pimps and the machine learning systems that hook people on the drip content the dealers?

People would work their fingers to carpal tunnel for some wow gold not long ago and kids have died in bathtubs as hooked parents were glued to facebook.

It would appear the synthetic digital heroin is worse than the natural stuff and affects people in their homes more so than hotels.
