> e don't use data-driven approaches to them for the same reason why people continue to hire underperforming assest managers or why they hire over-priced management consultants. i've got a data-driven solution for evaluating potential business partners, contractors, anything: https://github.com/neyer/respect it's basically page rank, with a small twist. > it's beyond realistic hope that we could actually develop a moral calculus at a national level and use data-driven principles to actually inform the national debate over privacy vs. safety. i think the key here is record taking, with really simple metrics.

i've built an algorithmic system to help people who are civil connect to each other. it's like pagerank, but personalized. Rather than have a top score for the 'most civil person', you use the system to record who you find civil and who you don't. When you interact with a stranger, you can quickly find out "should i bother talking to this person, or are they just going to troll me?" if a bunch of your friends say "hey this guy is worth talking to", then maybe you will. if a bunch of your friends say "this guy is a troll", you'll probably think the same thing. https://github.com/neyer/respect
