Journal whereiswaldo's Journal: The Truman Show

"The Truman Show" movie was basically about a guy who lived his entire life inside a virtual world where everyone was an actor and he was on television 24x7.

Imagine someone similar: an life guided by the decisions of "open source developers". That is, they make the decisions collectively, and the person executes those decisions. If it could be done, what kind of effects would you see? Would the decisions evolved into better decisions and make a better person out of the one executing the decisions? The "developers" would have to get a grasp of what the person is good at, and what talents need to be honed; what's necessary to be successful; long and short term goals; happiness; and so on.
What do you think?
