I'm really glad you did. I thought that was the single most important paragraph in your essay. I'd love to read more of your thoughts on the topic of ethical de

  I will definitely write on that in the future, already had a draft post at sometime but decided not to send it out because it did not feel complete. It's a tough subject, and an even tougher subject to put out there in a way that it is useful because if you let ethics be your main guiding light you might go under just as easily as if you were morally bankrupt and knowing how to find the balance is an extremely hard problem. For instance, last year I broke a couple of ethical rules to make sure that a company survived, I'm sure that did not make me any friends but I'm happy that I did. At the same time, if survival of that company (and by extension the people that get paid their salary every month by that corporation) had not been at stake I would have never done that. Deciding where and when ethics should take a front seat and when the situation dictates you need to purposefully cross a line is super tough. It's akin to the problem where you have to decide which of two groups of people you will rescue when you can rescue only one. I really hope I will never fuck up in that respect because the way in which I go about these things there is no second guessing, once done it is done and if I break it I'll end up owning the pieces.
