A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

moralistic integrity in comparison to social norms.
it's basically a good vs evil bar.
Eh I feel like that metric as you've defined it would unfairly skew negatively because of the sexuality of a person and thus misrepresent someone.

Time left to live. There's plenty of useful things that tell you more about a person, but shinigami eyes would let you save lives and know it, even if no one else does
And if it turns out the number can't be changed through your actions, that would tell you a lot. If nothing else, you could say goodbye to loved ones and get incredibly rich by finding a CEO about to run out of time

Asshole ratio: 0 % = best person in the world.
100 % = worst person in the world.
Computed as an average of bad "actions" with respect to all actions.
Good and bad evaluated with respect to proven positive impact on people's lifes and the planet.

None. Someday, some company will build and sell a tool that actually does that, and it will be hella privacy invasive. Actually, it'll probably just be another invasive feature added to the Ray Ban perv glasses.
another thing: I think most people answering here aren't thinking about how it would feel to have the statistic they're choosing over their own heads.

Times they told the truth.
If it's objective truth, sweet! Motherload I can asking anyone the a question to the secrets of the universe and know whether they're wild guess was true!
If it's subjective truth, also useful, but you know just lies or ignorance detector
Isn't that just a "how much do they yap" meter? A quiet person who lies can compulsively will have a lower number than a socially active person who tells occasional white lies.
The number itself won't matter, but you'll see it increment in real time if they lie

Number of farts in their lives.
My readout would need to use scientific notation or it would circle the earth 😂🤣.
I mean, Id get that if it were a tally, but just a numerical readout? Even exceeding the width of your head would be a monumental effort.
Number of days since they finished reading a book.
I don't like this one. I read all of the time but I'm a very slow reader. I tend to fall asleep when I read at night.

You could cheese this by picking a statistic for something like "likelihood to agree if asked for a favor". I'm not going to stress over the wording on how to make it most useful, but something like that could be interesting.
Or something like "amount of undiagnosed cancers" if you want to save people.
This reminds me of this animated YT video in which timers are displayed above peoples' heads that show the amount of seconds passed since that person last shit their pants: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WgbI5orsSMY
Over night, social hierarchies are upturned, respect is earned and lost based on that number.

Quality of Life impact: How much damage (or benefit) their actions (work, lifestyle, whatever) have done for the net quality of life across the globe. I figure anyone who drives to work is probably doing a little more harm than good, but perhaps they make up for it by being a good school teacher or something, whereas AI coders might make things worse ... but mostly I'd like to see if ANY world leaders score in the positive.

Number of cumulative years they would be imprisoned for, had they been caught and convicted of every single crime they ever committed.
I'm betting most adults are not at zero.
Lame. In Russia they d give you 10 years for thinking that killing neighbours is bad
Crime is such a subjective, context and time dépendant metric that it makes no sense to use here.
Are you one of those people who thinks things being legal equates to things being moral?
I'd say the opposite. Seeing that number over everyone's head oughta be a good way to prove that law ain't aligned with morals.
