Now that we have projects involving money and are switching to accrual accounting, we need to actually actualize accurate accrual accounting.
Since we have SUPER SECRET CONNECTIONS we can get a discount on CLOUD ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE so it costs $25 a month.
That may sound like a lot but BOY is it a bargain. How much of a bargain? I'm pretty sure so much that I'm not allowed to tell you. Anyway, please approve a $300 annual recurring expense so that we can afford to afford nice things.
Now.
The data will live on forever so that I can respond to IRS audits on BIFFUD's behalf for all eternety.

Project Name: SurroundSound
Project Haiku:
I left songs for you
In the alley, by the trash
Where we both belong
Project Analogy: It's like Pokemon Go, but for music discovery
The basic idea is that it's an AR experience/game where people encounter music 'in the wild' that is somehow tagged and geolocated to a particular place. I imagine that it's two-sided: you can both leave music for people and encounter music that other people have left. There's potentially a bit of a geocaching feel here, but also a bit like the end of Journey where other people are helping you get through your day // the bleakness of life. I think it would be cool to be walking through a place and have your phone buzz and there's some sort of song that's tagged to a location with some annotation from another user about why they left the song there for you.
I don't know if the songs fight you, like Pokemon go. Or fight each other.
You will get excited for lovely, cool, chic music and then find that everyone in your town keeps leaving the same six Nickleback songs everywhere unironically.
Alignment (CHOOSE ONE):
Probably some good opportunities for unexpected song/place pairings.
By causing them to ponder what is the relationship between music and place, and also to get FOMO/anxiety about not knowing how they always work together.

As per #75 we're now using quickbooks!
we need to...
Right now the bylaws allow the Overmind and Treasure Goblin to make purchases under $100 without corporate approval. We should adjust this clause to state that these funds must be allocated more generally ahead of time by the Hive Mind into a petty cash fund (and that the funds get unallocated at the first plotting session of the new year).
For example, at the beginning of the year the Hive Mind might allocate $300 for the petty cash fund.
This would limit the potential liability to the company if the Overmind decides to buy a new container of cheese balls to eat every day, just as a random example.
When a fund is earmarked or allocated we need to ensure a few things are very explicitly defined:
We should provide guidance in the bylaws of how to handle cases when these things are not explicitly stated in the budget request.
For instance: funds with no term are added back to the general fund at the end of the calendar year (and need to be re-approved). Any funds that remain after an item has been purchased / a task has been accomplished will default to being given back to the general operating fund immediately after the task has been accomplished.
That kind of thing.

gmail can suggest
bland responses, how about
a poem instead
The year is 2019. Human communication is reduced to clicking between three short phrases recommended by algorithms. One man dares to suggest lines of poetry instead. His weapon? A Chrome extension. His mission? Art, I guess.
Why on Earth would real people replace a useful part of their email app with an untrusted third party "extension" (whatever that is) that randomly shows lines of stilted, antiquarian poetry?
Chaotic Good

all the world's a stage
and people, merely players
so why not slack too
It takes something like this:
And makes it look like this:
On the surface, it looks like a relatively simple reformatting of chat output into a screenplay. However, the adaptation is much more sophisticated: many of the conventions of text chat must be translated, for instance, emoji reactions turn into stage direction. Threads turn into cuts. Timestamps can indicate whether there are long pauses in conversation or if many people are talking over each other. And if we can know how long someone takes to type a thing, it can be translated into something like CHARACTER is trying to formulate the words carefully.
It isn't. But I shopped it around to a lot of different producers and they all passed on it, so I need BIFFUD to greenlight this project so that my creative genius is finally recognized by the Academy.
Alignment:
When we are able to hire actors to dramatically and emotionally re-enact, on stage, with props and blocking, the words of a bunch of nerds using their computers as a substitute for human interaction.
One application of this application is to enable distributed improv troupes to create hilarious scenes, which can then be showcased later by non-improv actors.
Research suggests that that there is no such thing as a singular "true self" [citation needed], and that one's behavior instead subtly transforms when one is placed into different contexts, for various reasons, such as the desire to be accepted by a social group, or to attain status in one context but to remain unnoticed in another [citation needed]. When observing a person interacting with a particular social group, physical and behavioral cues, including posture, location and proximity to other persons, speech patterns, volume, gestures, and other interpersonal dynamics are signs of the role that this person plays within this group [citation needed]. As such, all real-life interaction are inherently performative [citation needed]. Yet, when these cues are stripped away, as in the case of a text-only medium like Internet chat, one's intended intonation and voice are obscured, and indeed the speaker is stripped of personality and performance [citation needed]. By interpreting the subtle cues that may be present in the act of typing itself, physical cues can be translated into stage direction for later re-enactment [citation needed]. Yet the multitudes of differing adaptions of the textual content of a play lends itself to a rich tapestry of interpretation, reminding us that all text, and perhaps even all physical and behavioral cues, are filtered through many lenses including that of the viewer, such that the "true self" of the original speaker may remain completely unknowable [citation needed].

Project Name: The Emoji Compass
Project Haiku:
You ask the compass,
"How am I going to die?"
It answers, "
Project Analogy: It's like an emoji Magic 8 ball for people who read the His Dark Materials trilogy
The Dark Materials trilogy is centered around a "Golden Compass". Its official name is alethiometer, or "truth measure". The device is like a compass, in that it's the size of a pocketwatch and has needles that spin toward answers. Its face shows 36 symbols, each of which can represent 12+ ideas, concepts, or literal meanings.
To use the compass, the user sets the three needles to three symbols that frame the question she is posing, and then the alethiometer spins the needles to three symbols to provide a cryptic answer. This answer is truth, but must be carefully interpreted.
I would like to create a mobile app that replaces the 36 alethiometer symbols with emoji. The answers the app returns to users' queries will be almost completely random, but shrouded in the symbology of the novels, it'll be really hard to prove that.
There's an emoji equivalent for each symbol on the compass. (Twitter's open sourced emoji collection may do it, but is two years out of date, so we may need to purchase the license to use Emoji One's updated collection).
This project takes a beloved fantasy novel's central artifact and makes light of it with inane emojis. Furthermore, the logic behind the app's "truth-telling" will be fairly random, potentially opening us up to lawsuits when someone misinterprets their answer and does something stupid.
Rebel (chaotic good), because it "follows [its] own moral compass, which, although good, may not agree with that of society." Source http://easydamus.com/alignment.html.
Alignment:
Fans of the Dark Materials books may actually enjoy having a Golden Compass app to play with, and the emoji symbols correctly set expectations for the nonsense answers we're likely to return.
When the user asks the Emoji Compass a serious question, they will be provided a reply with a (unbeknownst to them) random array of emojis. The wide range of potential symbolistic interpretations will allow the user to infer meaning where there was none to begin with, not unlike reading into lyrics to a song, or the punchline of a New Yorker cartoon.

My vow to you is
I will pay my debts in full
When the sun burns out
An abbreviated strawman history of transactions:
100 million years ago - i dunno, no money probably just dinosaur things
10 million years ago - still no money, speed this up
5000 years ago - Commodity money where the money itself has immediate perceived value (lame)
4000 years ago - Standarized coins (proto-bitcoins)
1000 years ago - Banknotes (bitpaper)
500 years ago - federalized banking
200 years ago - Construction of the Erie Canal begins
50 years ago - free floating fiat currencies
25 years ago - online banking
15 years ago - Paypal founded
8 years ago - Venmo founded, Bitcoin introduced
NOW - ZENMO
The history of interpersonal transactions has inexoriably moved towards faster, easier methods of settling debts. This has only accelerated with the integration of the internet and increases in computing power. However, this has left a massive opportunity - how can we provide slower, more frustrating, technically inaccurate, borderline unusable transactions to those who need them. Enter Zenmo.
To settle a debt, Zenmo first takes an equivalent amount in a cryptocurrency. Next, our algorithms split that value up into hundreds or even thousands of pieces. These pieces are distributed nonuniformly to encourage random intermittent reinforcement to maximize the amount of time engaged in the transaction. Then, these amounts are recorded into paper wallets which the receiving party must check individually to receive the full debt owed. Given the underlying volatility and non-stationarity of cryptocurrencies, by the time this transaction is completed the debt will almost assuredly not be paid to the correct amount. However, the debt should probabilistically be less than it was previously (though possibly have changed hands). To complete the debt, the debtor and debtee will switch back and forth until rounding errors occur or the debt is too small to be worth the hassle. As cryptocurrencies inexplicably have miniscule discretized values, any debt could continue to be Zenmo'd back and forth for years.
Zenmo: Pay your debts. Eventually.
Oh holy shit, lemme count the ways:
Alignment:
From the outset, my intention of this awful awful idea is to poke at a few well proffered beliefs: technological innovation is a monotonic force for good; cryptocurrencies are immune to failings that exist with other transfers of money; all interpersonal transactions must be quantified and exact; all debts must be settled as soon as capable; minimizing transactional friction is always desirable; electronic transfers are to be trusted fully, etc etc. A later version of Zenmo could expand on these ideas by building a mobile game and/or literal slot machine to receive your payment.
and any betatesters who want to contribute in maximizing Zenmo's potential.

i like to swipe right

What is your project? What is the goal?
Amazon and Tinder have four things in common: they each offer 1) an endless supply of 2) things you don't need but 3) will seek out anyway because you believe consumption will make you feel less lonely and yet you inevitably 4) regret your decision the next morning.
Shouldn't they share the same interface?
Why not bring the casual, impulsive dismissiveness/acquisition of people to the realm of objects by making it possible to swipe your way through everything on Amazon? Load our app and be presented with a randomly sorted list of things that are available to buy on Amazon (possibly subject to certain minimum/maximum price restrictions as analogue to age, or categories as analogue to gender). Swipe left for the next object that you didn't know you needed, swipe right to instantly Prime it right to your house.
There are a few prior art inspirations for this project, which has been sitting in an evernote folder I have for bad ideas since September 2014:
Jeff Bezos doesn't need any more money and this will probably give him some. Also probably will have negative environmental externalities.
Alignment:
Because it is a fount of random garbage.
As Darius' bot proved, there are a lot of weird things on Amazon, and since this app won't (indeed, mustn't) privilege highly-rated or otherwise recommended items, it will increase the likelihood that people stumble across them.
(You can imagine a web-based version that does the same thing too, which is kind of nice).
You did this to yourself.
[Any arbitrary set list of objects] disrupts being, spilling a heap of unwelcome and incoherent crap at the foot of the reader. In doing so, a tiny part of the expanding universe is revealed through cataloging. Ontographical cataloging hones a virtue: the abandonment of anthropocentric narrative coherence in favor of worldly detail...Such is the ontographical project, to draw attention to the countless things that litter our world unseen.
We must not confuse the values of the design of objects for human use, such as doors, toasters, and computers, with the nature of the world itself. An ontograph is a crowd, not a cellular automaton that might describe its emergent operation. An ontograph is a landfill, not a Japanese garden. It shows how much rather than how little exists simultaneously, suspended in the dense meanwhile of being.

Original description:
A few of us decided to play diplomacy over Slack... then we decided to build things to delay and publicize the friend-death.
Diplomacy is a game that breaks people. It involves betreyal and backstabbing over a long period of time. The premise is simple: the players are all world powers and they control armies. Each power wants to control as much territory as possible. All moves are deterministic, there is no randomness to the game. However, people can lie about what they plan to do.
Playing diplomacy is a bad idea in itself, but writing complex code to publicly render an otherwise private, simple game is a genuine waste of raw creative energy.

Now that we are doing more serious bzns, it's time to review our bylaws. Some concepts that I would like us to consider in an updated bylaw draft:
Codify the 2.4% tithe on gross income for projects that go through BIFFUD; add some kind of clause around direct reimbursements (e.g. someone buys something that gets paid back directly by a client, we shouldn't take a tithe there).
Update our title for "Minions" -- it was funny at the time, still is really, but it's also a little rude. We think that "Accomplices" has a better ring to it while still implying participation in sinister and criminal plots.
Add better structure around budget requests -- now that I've become an Official Certified Accountant* for the company, I've learned the errors in our ways. We need budget requests to always have the following components: (1) the exact amount requested, (2) the term of the request {so when the money has to be spent by}, (3) what happens to leftover funds, (4) a description of what it means to have "bought" the thing {so we know when 3 takes effect}
Require budgeting for petty cash fund. Right now there is a loophole that Lou and I have Totally Not Abused So Far We Swear which would allow us to spend unlimited money in <$100 increments. This isn't the intent of petty cash fund, and it makes it hard to hold us accountable. We should require that the hive allocate money to petty cash, maybe with a recommended $200 at the beginning of the year. This can be refreshed at a plotting session the same way any budget could be set.
Add some language explaining the spirit of BIFFUD's money structure, with suggested guidelines for project owners as they think about budgets. Basically, helping folks understand what kinds of resources they can expect BIFFUD corporate to pay for vs what they should expect to be paying on their own.
Figure out how to handle the whole "we are kind of acting like an agency" thing. We can't wait for the hive mind to approve each individual client project or grant application. We need to figure out some kind of structure to support funded work. This will likely involve some kind of faith in the Executive Overlord team when it comes to FUNDED projects
Add in some concept for hibernation of projects. Some projects we have approved aren't moving, which is OK and expected; we should figure out some way to indicate the live ones.
Potentially build in an expectation that if we approve a project, we are committing to fund a petty cash fund for the project. This will give some teeth and meaning to our approval, and support the project's success. Right now it costs nothing to approve a project, and as a result I think we have more stagnant projects.
Funding to pay for a branding exercise and the professional design and implementation of a website.
Total cost: 3,000 EUR (aka $3,512.54 as of this moment.)
Breakdown: 1,000 for branding, 2,000 for the website
NOW!!!!!!
The results of this will live on forever at the Internet Archive.
I can also commit to printing out copies of the website once it is finished and putting it in a time capsule somewhere.
We really need a website that we're comfortable sharing with random strangers on the street. Specifically we want a digital brand and presence that accomplishes the following:
Makers -- we want people who make things to know about our organization and participate.
Foundations and funders -- we want foundations to feel comfortable funding us to create things, we want them to appreciate the VALUE of the culture we harbor and want to be associated with that culture.
Partners -- We want people who need things built to understand that we are capable creators; this might be organizations like the BBC or startups like Meedan who might hire us to develop products with a predefined scope of work.
Users -- We want potential users of the things we create to know what we're about and take joy in the fact that by using our stuff (or maybe some day paying for it) they are supporting something awesome (and they can be a part of it too)
I'll take some of the money talk out of github, but I think this can be done in a sustainable way for the organization.

here in the outline, DAN?Time is linear
But in case it's cyclical
You'd better buy some
Project Analogy: It's like eBay for time. Or maybe Amazon. Definitely not Uber. Unless...
No.
BuyTime will be a website in which one can buy periods of time, much in the same way that one can name a star.
The idea came about over high school lunch table discussions about a commodity we could sell without having to produce anything tangible (other than, perhaps, a certificate of sale). It's beyond snake oil; in buying it, one inherently knows one is not actually getting anything "real". Which sounds beyond stupid, but there are plenty of examples out there: canned air from various locations, naming rights to stars, land on celestial objects, bottled water in first world countries... you get the idea. So we had a brainstorm (it was a bad one; we had to put our tongue guards in) and came up with: time.
As @bluxenberg put down in a later recap of the initial lunch table discussions:
After doing some initial research, we learned that, for example, 1/6 of Israelis had purchased land on the moon. Giving land on the moon had become a popular funny gift in the country. After learning about the moon land sales, we spent time generating ideas about similar things we could sell. The key characteristic was there could be no accountability for what we were selling. That is, no one could ever claim you sold them something faulty, defective, or, at base, anything material beyond a piece of paper. We identified selling time as the perfect commodity that could meet the core characteristic of no accountability.
In terms of how time would be sold, we came up with a few initial ideas:
No matter what kind of sale, there should be a digital certificate associated with it. Thankfully, BIFFUD has already developed/is developing awful technology for memos and signatures. A physical version could be mailed for a price.
There are many open questions about implementation here. A big one that comes to mind is futures: do we do 'em? But we're excited to discuss everything with the Hive Mind.
We're selling nothing. People will either give us money for nothing, which is bad, or we'll have wasted a ton of time, which is bad.
Bad.
Bad bad bad.

According to the Wikipedia article on the labor theory of property:
In his Second Treatise on Government, the philosopher John Locke asked by what right an individual can claim to own one part of the world, when, according to the Bible, God gave the world to all humanity in common. He answered that persons own themselves and therefore their own labor. When a person works, that labor enters into the object. Thus, the object becomes the property of that person.
However, according to a highDEAS post submitted by kit on May 11, 2010:
It doesn't make sense that people can own parts of the Earth. It's weird that some people a long time ago just looked at the land and was like I call this one, this is mine. It'd be like someone owning the ocean or a part of it. It's kinda fucked up.

Ben Luxenberg. It really can't be stressed enough that he has an MBA.
Hell yes.
Please attend the next scheduled BIFFUD plotting session to plead your case.
This issue will be updated with application status and next steps.
We have a year of experience under our belts now, and know what costs are around the corner. Time to ask for money.
Total: $1190.40
NOTE: If there are sales tax for these items (or other small fudging) then I'm asking for general approval of this
The money will be spent in the year 2019.
We expect to spend all of this; if there's any left at the end of the year then cool! It should be given back
Please attend the next scheduled BIFFUD plotting session to plead your case.
We need to set up Quickbooks. This has been an ongoing effort, and the iteration so far has not been captured here unfortunately. This changes now.
You know, for the next time we need to set up Quickbooks.
We are using GitHub for most note taking in order to be transparent to the public to which we are not at all accountable.
However, we need a way to store more sensitive data.
TL;DR Corporate Overlords now have access to a shared drive with things like signed contracts stored in them.
We paid a lawyer to start our company; we didn't have bylaws at the time, so there was no formal approval process. I'd like to formally retroactively approve funding that payment back in 2017.

Go watch Primer.
Please attend the next scheduled BIFFUD plotting session to plead your case.
We need to set up a bunch of our services now that we have some funds:

We should use issues to track and discuss ideas for bylaw changes SO EREK DOESNT LOSE THEM WHENEVER HE BUYS A NEW HOUSE AND MOVES.
Clearly this will happen often enough that we should have an issue template for it.
We need a template / baseline CLA for BIFFUD projects as soon as possible.
The content should be placed in documents/contributor-license-agreement.md
💂🏼 🚶🏼
We will be signing contracts with third parties around payment, we need a template to start with that we feel comfortable with as an organization.
If you are a Corporate Overlord interested in applying for an Elected Overlord position, this is the issue thread for you.
To apply for a position simply copy this markdown and fill it out with your information as a comment in this thread.
Elections will be held during May's plotting session (since April's is too soon and would violate the 24 hour bylaws clause).

A group of researchers is looking for an iOS application that will ask a series of questions and record responses. This isn't a traditional BIFFUD project, but we have a good relationship with the researchers so it might make sense to help them out. Plus they have a budget!
It has nothing to do with what we actually make; it will cost dan $140 to run it through BIFFUD.

or illuminate a room:
Neon emoji
Mike Tigas bought a shruggie sign for his apartment, which got us thinking face: why not have a thinking face emoji on the walls of our corporate headquarters.
The idea is to create a custom designed neon thinking face emoji. I googled custom neon signs and the first hit was this company in colorado called Zeon. I talked to a rep about what it would take to do, he said they can do it! A one-off would be too expensive to make sense (~$1,000) , which means we need to create at least 25 of these suckers and sell them. The more we sell, the greater the margin. I figure if we can sell 25 at cost then it's a win for everybody. If we can sell 100 for a profit then I'll quit my job and become an emoji salesman.
We did the math from a recent twitter poll, and it is looking pretty promising:
It all depends on where you think you'll put the sign, frankly.
If you put it right in front of your computer monitor, you won't be able to get work done.
If you put it on your toilet seat, you won't be able to sit on your toilet.
If you put it on your car steering wheel you will have trouble making three point turns.
If you place it under your pillow you will be kept up at night from the light.
But overall I'll admit, it's basically a great idea. Who doesn't want to spend over a hundred dollars on a neon thinking face emoji.

It all depends on where you think you'll put the sign, frankly.
If you put it on the wall behind you during meetings, your meetings will be dominated by conversations about it.
If you use it to replace your porch light, everybody in your neighborhood will laugh at you
If you hang it in your house as a normal wall fixture your house guests will be confused and intrigued
If you replace your business signage with it, your customers will be much more thoughtful
I'm not sure.

Yes, because the company we work with would do the designing and making of the signs. Our role is in oversight, feedback, and customer relationships. We would probably go for a Kickstarter approach and require enough backers to cover some baseline of costs since we don't want to use our limited corporate funds to float this.
Cost per unit for 25 units was around $100; that price goes down as we scale, it goes up if we make the design more complex. Neon is slightly more expensive than an LED sign and I was advised that Neon doesn't last as long and is more likely to break in shipping etc. We may want to consider LEON which is basically an LED neon look (it looks pretty cool from the pictures). Anyway, point is, it's a realistic price point for the true emoji connoisseur.
Should this be approved, I'll aim to have a progress report in May.

Slack recently changed the way their emoji work so that there's no vertical or horizontal whitespace between tiles. This means slack can support grids of arbitray animated pixel art. Combine that with the slack API and BOOM you have a multi user 2-D grid based video game engine on your hands.
We absolutely must build that engine.

The past is prologue.
A prologue of bad ideas.
Let's store all of them!
TL;DR :: Prior art stops patents from being issued: if there is prior art for a thing, than that thing cannot be patented. This system will help streamline the process for discovering prior art.
Prior Art Archive (PrArAr) is an attempt to build out a system for collecting information about "prior art." -- this is a technical term in the legal field which I believe means "art that was created before this exact moment."
What we are planning to build is a network of high resolution scanners that can be mailed to communities around the world, asking them to scan ALL art created by children or adults. For sculptures we will deploy a fleet of drones equipped with 3D cameras and / or giant claws in order to steal them and bring them back to our central archive.
PrArAr is a project of The Underlay an edgy pop rock band founded at MIT in 2009. In 2016 or whatever they pivoted to become a global, distributed graph of public knowledge.
Enough jibba jabba. Here is what we put in the proposed scope of work:
Engineering, project management, and product management services for the PrArAr. The goal is to build upon and generally improve the current PrArAr prototype in coordination with key stakeholders such as the US Patent and Trademark Office and in collaboration with Cisco and the Underlay Team.
Deliverables
• New Upload Experience
o Design and implementation of a new uploader experience (currently based on SFTP).The updated version will include:
§ A more natural and accessible flow and additionally provide a mechanism to upload through drag-and-drop on the website.
§ Metadata extraction triggered by the upload of new data.
o Creation of an uploader / editor workflow that allows deleting, editing, and merging of documents and metadata.
• Researcher (e.g. searching user) experience for viewing information related to a single document, single author, and single uploader.
• Collaboration with Cisco engineers to help them maintain and potentially improve the search capabilities of the system.
• Collaboration with other partners to improve entity extraction and application of patent IDs.
• Updated user account page
o Improving the way users view all of their uploaded documents by creating more accessible interfaces.
• Where relevant, these efforts will also result in:
o Creation of user needs documentation for USPTO, companies, law firms,and individuals
o Creation of design specifications and wireframes
o User testing and user feedback cycles
• Create a system for identifying duplicate content and resolving those duplicates (e.g. via the merging interface referenced earlier)
• General improvements to the system, as mutually identified over time
Responsibilities
Bad Idea Factory will be responsible for:
• Conducting interviews and conversations with key stakeholders.
• Designing, iterating on, and implementing the frontend (and supporting backend) of PrArAr.
• Communicating progress and regularly pushing code and design progress to GitHub.
• Performing deployment of the web application to staging and production servers.
• Managing the project by regularly establishing priorities and processes in order to mesh together various contributing parties.
Bad Idea Factory will rely on the Underlay team for:
•Providing regular feedback on design and implementation progress.
•Assisting in coordination with external stakeholders.
•Providing access to necessary computational resources (e.g. staging and production servers, code bases, and necessary backends / APIs to power the system)
One of our owners is an MIT employee, and since MIT has a conflict of interest policy this means that we would need to make sure that that owner sees absolutely no benefit from this relationship. In order to ensure this, we will need to go out of our way to make sure that the project creates net harm for Bad Idea Factory.
For example, because of this conflict of interest MIT would require us to not collect the 2% BIF tithe since that would ultimately benefit the company.

This system will help more people get to

MONEY MAKES ANYTHING REALISTIC TO IMPLEMENT RIGHT?
This project is FUNDED.
As noted earlier, in order to sign the contract we would have to waive the BIF Tithe (2%) for money paid by MIT. Cough
Proposed start date is April 15th; this would represent an effort of around 20 to 30 hours a week, so we'll have updates more often than BIFFUD is likely going to be interested in hearing them.

Some news is so dumb
It belongs in The Onion
So we put it there
In 2013 or so Dan and I built this project to parody a parody newspaper. News from Not the Onion automatically populates our handy Onion template: http://theon1on.com/
Well, let's see.
We already negotiated the legalese with the CEO of The Onion when he visited MIT Media Lab. The main point of contention was that we had accidentally stolen the expensive font they license from a fine font foundry. We've since replaced it with a less criminal font. Dan also offended their engineers by lazily hotlinking their images onto our site. But now that's fixed, too, and we're all good! Except that the company has been sold for parts like 4 times since this all went down. So maybe we'll get some more angry lawyer letters.
Another reason this project is a bad idea is that its news comes from Reddit, where it occasionally picks up some regressive, misogynist, and/or xenophobic funk. Future work on the project, should anyone be inspired, could include a moderation queue for this news.
And maybe even fixing the Justin Bieber twitter embed, which has been stuck on this one tweet from 21 February 2013: https://twitter.com/justinbieber/status/304554593331843072.
The site's premier banner sponsor, http://newsjack.in/, links to a website and project that is no longer online.
The good news is that this site continues to attract thousands of unique views a month with literally no effort in the past ~5 years. This proposal is mainly to bring the project into the BIFFUD stable, put it on the website, and reimburse the annual domain fee.
Alignment (CHOOSE ONE):
Chaotic good
Our cruel sad world continues to produce headlines like "Burn Injuries From Viral Boiling Water Challenge Sending People To The Hospital"
This project forces people to reconsider the very idea of parody news by appropriating (fair use!) the brand and design of one of the most popular parody products around. And then those people need to reconsider whether parody is still funny if they live in a world more bizarre than the dark, twisted minds of comedy writers can even create. It's great!

first, scratch tickets
then, a glut of winnings
last, burn it all down
What is your project? What is the goal?
The lottery is a regressive institution, a tax on the poor and financially insecure, that plays on their dreams and aspirations and then exploits the few winners for a public performance that eventually ruins their life.
What if we could win the lottery and undermine it at the same time?
The purpose of this project is to a) solve several prima facie 'user problems' in playing that lottery in the short term that b) accrues financial returns to BFD in the intermediate term and c) ironically destroys the lottery in the long term.
Playing the lottery remains bound to the experience of bringing $2 in cash to a 7/11 or, if you're really motivated, mailing a check to a state office for a subscription. This is a disappearing interactive experience.
Instead, we create an app that allows you to buy, or subscribe, to any lottery you choose through your phone, which reduces the friction of buying a ticket.
Critically, the user doesn't actually buy the ticket: instead, they give money to BFD, which reserves the ticket on their behalf.
If/when a ticket wins, BFD claims the ticket on the user's behalf, distributing the money to them and thus protecting their privacy and anonymity. This provides the primary appeal to users of why do this (beyond convenience).
In return for convenience and claiming tickets, BFD takes a modest percentage of winning tickets, which increases at a gradual level on the marginal dollar until you approach something like 10% over $1m (the typical share taken by random north shore "10 percenter" families who will claim tickets on people's behalf).
Additionally, BFD could arbitrage annuities more aggressively than the state is willing to do, i.e. claim jackpot 20 year annuities and offer higher immediate payouts than the state while preserving the financial security of BFD (and its members) effectively in perpetuity.
The lottery maintains its social legitimacy by propagating the illusion that ordinary people win it. It does so primarily by making public, mythical figures of the 'everyday' people who win the lottery, get their picture taken, and then their lives ruined.
By intermediating the process and claiming the winnings by a faceless, trolly institution, trust in the lottery will finally dwindle and destroy it in the long term.
It maintains or perhaps even strengthens a regressive institution in the short term and then undermines a key (if problematic) source of revenue in the long term.
Alignment:
Systemic irony and enabling lots of bad decisions.
It causes people to question the social performances and exploitative institutions that both support and erode our democracy.

I don't know what this means.
Maybe, but it's going to be more complicated than the last one. The thing is that different states have regulations about who can buy tickets. In MA, for example, they have really strange laws about a minimum number of food and drink sales you need in order to sell lotto tickets, which effectively restricts tickets to being sold at convenience and liquor stores.
We could solve this problem in two ways: one, by geographic arbitrage, i.e. buying tickets in states without this requirement; two, we buy a convenience store on behalf of Biffud.

The Bad Idea Factory, led by Dan Schultz, will assist the Duke Reporters’ Lab by developing Talking Point Tracker, which will include methods and technologies to integrate statements from the TV News Archive and other sources with fact checking work flows.
The Talking Point Tracker will extract the most frequent political statements aired on broadcast television in near real-time. The new tool will provide political fact-checkers with data to know which claims are catching on and being repeated to the public.
The tracker will incorporate elements that quantify soundbites, phrases, and key metadata.
Soundbites: Adapt the Duplitron tool, an open source audio fingerprinting tool, to track news coverage in near real-time by crunching through TV news broadcasts over a given time period and detecting which soundbites are being clipped the most. Develop ability to automatically distinguish commercials, improve soundbite detection of specific durations, and incorporating video fingerprinting into algorithms.
Phrase tracking: Explore ways to use natural language processing and analysis to enable the identification of common talking points and themed claims for a given time period through caption and transcript analysis. Continue to open our closed captioning data stores to others to help work toward jumping these technological hurdles while working on advancing these ourselves.
Key metadata. Enhance key metadata related to topic detection capabilities. Sentence clustering, entity extraction (essentially noun detection–finding persons, places, or things mentioned), all are areas to develop.
