Fun fact.
When I do a data dump, I'm actually following the Golden Rule. A stream of overtly meaningless, but relevant data with potential, unanticipatible informational value is often exactly what I want. I like having the data thrown at me as a stream and letting my subconscious sort it out for utility.
Unfortunately, most other people don't actually want it. It's junk.
I totally understand that. This is the same reason I have such an inaccurate picture of the world; I'm inferring a lot that isn't actually there, because I don't have the experience and indoctrination to have a picture congruent to everyone else's.
But, y'know, I still want my datafeed. And no one wants to listen to the one I spew.
