RE: Is Intelligence an Algorithm? Part 9: Architecture of a Webmind
I also read your blog about getting flagged with no explanation. I am an opponent for flagging for anything other than Plagiarism, Spam, and Abuse. I don't believe we need a flag for indicating you are not interested in a topic. The fact that you viewed it, and did not up vote it is sufficient.
I describe it much like walking into a bookstore. I go buy the books I like. I don't pause and start pulling topics off the shelves or sticking red sticker on them saying they suck. Many people like things I despise. I have zero interest in televised sports and professional sports. I don't go out of my way to downvote such things because I dislike them.
I view it kind of like the "free speech" issues. Many people claim to believe in free speech, until you say something they don't like. ;)
I'm glad you joined.
Totally agree with you. I checked out the history of this flagger on steemd and he turns out to be a notorious flagger: he flags as much as he upvotes, completely going beyond the purpose of flagging. Fortunately he has a very little account, so he can't do much harm.
