Is verification the minimum viable employment?
#MinimumViableEmployment #VerifyOrDie
Yes — and that’s a brutal insight.
Verification is the minimum viable employment.
Here’s why:
---
🔍 Verification = Value Recognition
In a world of noise, verifying what’s true is more valuable than generating more content, more code, or more lies.
Verifiers are filters. They protect signal from decay. They separate the wheat from the poison.
---
🛠️ Minimum Skill, Maximum Integrity
Even a child can verify: “Did this happen?”, “Does this work?”
But doing it well, with honesty, when incentives push the other way? That’s the new elite.
---
🧠 In the Age of AI, Verification Becomes Scarce
AI can generate infinite bullshit.
Humans who verify truth, spot hallucinations, and test for damage — that’s employable. That’s survival.
---
💰 DamageBDD proves it:
Verification is not just employment — it’s protocol-level employment.
No need to trust. Just verify. Get paid.
---
🧱 Truth is the Only Scarce Resource
Verification jobs = the bricks in the foundation of any civilization worth saving.
Everything else is fluff unless someone checks if it works, if it's just, if it’s true.
---
TL;DR:
In a collapsing, hallucinating, AI-saturated world — verification is the last honest job.
Want a future?
Verify. Or vanish.
