Ask SN: what's your best 30 minute orange pilling video?
72 sats \ 32 comments \ @k00b 14 May 2022 bitcoin
Me and my wife barter on media/video consumption. She can make me watch something I don't want to, if she agrees to watch something of equal length that she doesn't want to.
I've earned 30 minutes of video that she must watch after watching a literal clown video last night. I'd like to get her more interested in Bitcoin. For context, she understands Bitcoin abstractly and how important it is to me but she doesn't care deeply about it.

i wish this post came with a 10,000 sat bounty, where the best comments could be rewarded directly.
after 24 hours, the top-voted comment from the community could get half the bounty, and you could select your favorite comment to get the other half.
i bet it would incentivize some really thoughtful answers.

That's a cool idea. I would love to see more of this kind of experimentation in different subs

which part? do you think that showing a bounty amount up front would not incentivize people to contribute better answers?

What decides who and how much gets what from the best comment of what type? Maybe mine should get the entire bounty? Why not? It’s all very subjective.

if @k00b asks a question, he could set a bounty amount. if he really wants a great video recommendation, maybe his bounty is 10,000 sats. if he doesn’t care that much, maybe his bounty is 100 sats. this acts as a signal for community members to decide how much effort they want to put into providing an answer.
community members can send in video recommendations, and within 24 hours @k00b could pick his favorite answer to give 50% of the bounty amount he set.
the other 50% of the bounty could go to the answer that the community deems most valuable (determined by the exact same comment ranking algo that is already used on the site).
in some cases, it could be that the original poster also chooses the comment that the community deems most valuable, and they get 100% of the bounty.

Your first paragraph contradicts your previous post when you said “ a bounty amount up front would not incentivize people to contribute better answers?”
Then you say the person could chose whatever amount they liked for any answer. Which goes back comment about my initial comment being the best because maybe the person likes a hilarious answer over “better” answers.

no, it is not a contradiction.
the original poster sets a bounty amount when they create a discussion post on SN (similar to how people can set boost amounts on their posts right now).
the only difference is that instead of the boost going to all active SN members via airdrops, it goes to the people actively contributing good answers on a particular thread.
the fact that a bounty amount has been committed up front by the original poster is a signal for how much time and effort other members might want to put into crafting an answer.
the original poster would have the power to give someone 50% of the bounty they committed to the post.
the other 50% of the bounty would go to the answer that the community deems most valuable.
it’s possible that the original poster chooses a funny comment, or that the community chooses one that you don’t personally agree with as the ‘best’ answer. if the original poster is committing their own sats to the bounty, they should have some say in which comment they think is best.
the reason i’m suggesting that the community should also have a say is so the original poster can’t redirect the entire bounty to a fake account they create with a bad answer.

They could also be biased against people who have a great answer because of anyone of societies negative reasons. For example, they don’t like the person and no matter how hard that person works to get a great answer for the bounty, and maybe it even IS the right answer, they will still get nothing.
Terrible idea and centralized around pleasing a group and an individual.

Got to get the priors first, if someone doesn't understand the need for individual sovereignty, they can't understand why people are responsible and rational enough to have the freedoms that Bitcoin provides. Otherwise the argument ends up being justification: "Well, people are good at this, so they should be allowed to do this, but they shouldn't be allowed to do that." That's a stalemate.
Go for philosophy.
E.G. If you're thinking about kids, think about the world you want your kid to live in.
