In quite some cases companies could do the same thing without facial recognition: if they sell tickets to named people and verify official IDs. It's just that (good enough) facial recognition makes this available in more cases.
(BTW. There's a likely fundamental limitation of facial recognition that might come into play here, in that there's a lower bound on false positives, because the space of faces is not that large. This limits the number of banned people before the FP rate climbs too high to be acceptable, but I'm not sure if the limit impacts anything in practice.)
@pragprog Never read one of your books that I didn't like.
@Polychrome how much of this is about facial recognition, and how much is this about a nasty business who handed out pictures to all their bouncers and ticket agents?
@jamesshore what is lobsters?
Also disturbing... the assumption that thinking is the purview of a few, and the rest must always be busy. The assumption that ppl doing work are a cost, not creative humans would could actually add a lot...if the system left space for them to do so.
The XP values (which I think of as core Agile values) are Communication, Simplicity, Feedback, Respect, and Courage. It's worth thinking about that for a while.
