Highlights
- The problem with unmoderated online spaces is that a few people will always ruin them. Most conflicts between Reddit can be traced to a handful of active users with a history of angry comments. A mere 0.1% of all Reddits generate 38% of attacks on others, and 1% accounts for 74%. https://t.co/yMbZLFAs78

- A surprisingly large part of the value of Google & other search engines is just Wikipedia.

- The skill of surgeons varies tremendously, with bottom quartile surgeons having over 4x as many complications as the best surgeons in the same hospital. And surgeons are keenly aware of who is good & who is bad - their rankings of others are very accurate. https://t.co/1YOmLxgQEd https://t.co/cm3HUph0Aj
