- prototype notes
- the usually non-fictional motif of sorting through a lot of people to hit the jackpot and find the right people. this motif is inherent in most "job interview advice", as well as some "relationship advice", "product marketing advice", and rants against "social media". however, it also comes up in other unexpected places, like looking through a lot of books on a particular topic to find a book which is considered good or useful for some purpose. most people consider people-gambling perfectly normal. (as much as that totally baffles me.) this is often missed in critiques of "social media" as uniquely bad — if everything in life involves gambling on groups of people like some kind of poker deck, why wouldn't it be obvious for videos or microblog posts to work that way?

Usage notes
Item number
The number "pronounced seven seven zero" was chosen in reference to apparent "near-misses" on slot machines where two of the rolls come up "7" and one of them doesn't. It is common for slot machines to have better odds on the first two rolls than the third one to make them seem more likely to pay out than they actually are.
