  • This was the whole purpose of our founding fathers.

    Kings were getting beheaded. They knew enough that if they didn’t want to watch their backs constantly, they needed to spread power thin.

    It’s the point of good faith in government. It goes back to the Code of Hammurabi. We have these laws so that we can all mostly agree on how things should be handled in a reasonable way.

    When people can’t rely on laws and justice, eventually blood spills.

    These people have been so intent on gathering money and power, they haven’t realized why the founding fathers did the exact opposite.





  • On a wild tangent, I’ve tried to tell people this about the League of Legends queue system for the highest tiers.

    Instead of having random queue times, set the games to launch at predictable times (such as every 15 or 20 minutes). The matchmaking gets much easier, and everyone knows how long they have to wait. Hold some people on the cusp for the high tier queue, and after it goes you can release anyone who doesn’t make it back into the general pool.

    But it’s the same concept. Don’t make people wait for a random time between 2 minutes and 45 minutes, where they have to be attentive the whole duration. Just tell them when to show up.
