[top-politics] Re: PageRank is *Fractional Approval Asset Voting* with unlimited proxy depth.

[…] > By contrast, PageRank is a peer-review algorithm.
>mG: -Mumbo-jumbo, what do you mean?
-M: It finds expert opinion by following endorsement chains to the convergence of expertese.
> >> >-M: With SD2-S, its always collaboration. > >mG: -Where is your proof of that?

>mG: Minimum? Why and why is it a guarantee for collaboration for the best > solution?
-M: Its not a guarantee, but it still is collaborative.
>mG: Collaboration , yes, but what if all top-ranked are corrupt and know > each other, conserving their power?
-M: That creates what Brad deGraff calls a ‘circle jerk’. Such a circle still needs broad support to be highly ranked, or else is is just largely ignored by PageRank.

-M: Yes, I have heard of this.
>mG: To use your own words, SD2 selections can fuck up development.
-M: SD2-S is not an appointment based system, so your criticism doesn’t apply.
