Most such fraud would be done in bigger precincts, not small towns, so as to blend in better.

Somebody who ready to run can outpace Barney Fife.

I'm sure Putin and Xi have a copy of everyone's drivers license.
From the 30's to 60's one got too much lead from rigged gas, and 70's+ microplastics.

Perhaps Chinese bubbles pop different than US bubbles?
New Apple slogan: "Pop Different!"
Apple does seem to suspect a bubble more than other big tech companies, they are taking it slower, letting others test the waters.
Correction: "After first the bots will look" should be "At first..."
Maybe there is a learning curve in switching between knowing what kind of mistakes humans make versus bots?
Somebody with say 10 years experience dealing with human mistakes will learn to spot problems and warning signs faster over time. If bots make different flavors of mistakes, then there will be a learning curve to get a feel for where and how bots tend to choke.
After first the bots will look like morons, but over time you'll realize they are just a different flavor of morons (compared to newbie or sloppy humans).
Reminds me of Trek episodes where it takes a while for the Trek crew to realize a species does things different, and adjust accordingly.
Fair assessment?

I'd like to request clarification on this, perhaps a mini-example? Thanks.
> When I left, they wanted people to be Senior level before being people managers. But there were more senior level engineers than senior engineering managers...
The best techies aren't necessarily the best managers, as people tend to devote brain power to either things/concepts or people but not both. In rare cases one has both skills, but that's probably unrealistic to expect at scale such that they need to rethink the assumption of a path of rising thru the tech ranks and then shift to the management ranks. The best jugglers ain't the best runners and vice versa.
Our economy depends on bubbles. Our debt is too large to have decent stimuluses, and thus we've been relying on bubbles to re-juice the economy after the prior bubble whacks us. It's like a crack addict: we need another hit to mask the pain of the prior.
Although there are fuzzier earlier examples, this started when the dot-com bubble rescued us from the Glasnost aerospace slump (made famous by the movie "Falling Down").
They keep wanting instant gratification. The conversion will have hiccups, but one has to work at solving those over time. Partner with other EU nations to code fixes (or brake-o's, as sometimes one has to mirror MS bugs to make documents compatible.)
