Hi Samuel and all! Last month (55 days ago) Samuel Rose wrote:
Some metric of value almost always seems to emerge among people once groups scale up over around 12-25 people or so.

It serves a role, at least being representative of what some-to-all collectively find valuable.
I think you are not fully correct here. Of course people value things or they don't. Whether there is a metric - which for me basically means a facility to project the feeling to a number - is to me highly questionable. In fact such a metric would abstract from concrete feelings. This is the very source of alienation. Grüße Stefan
