Core Memory's Kylie Robison analyzes the viral "San Francisco's Hot List": Celeste Amadon published her list of SF's most dateable people with open self-nominations judged on Attraction, Ambition, Accomplishment, Reputation and Aura. The feed erupted with mockery — SF dubbed spiritually LinkedIn and doomed to die alone — while young singles still self-nominated like writing resumes. Robison frames it as Silicon Valley ranking faces again, twenty years after Facemash, and proof the ragebait economy is still raging.
